Investigation of kinetic, isotherm and adsorption efficacy of thorium by orange peel immobilized on calcium alginate

Scientific Reports, 2023
In this research work the thorium uptake on immobilized protonated orange peel was studied in a batch system. The effects of effective parameters such as biosorbent dosage, initial metal ion concentration, and contact time on the biosorption of thorium ...

Synergistic damage behavior of He ion irradiation and molten salt corrosion in SiC at 750 °C

Journal of Advanced Ceramics
CVD SiC samples exposed to 400 keV He ion irradiation at 750 °C were subsequently corroded in FLiNaK molten salt at 750 °C for 166 h. After corrosion, the dissolution of Si led to the formation of a carbon-rich layer and obvious denudation of the SiC ...

Fabrication of Thorium and Thorium Dioxide

Natural Science, 2015
Thorium based nuclear fuel is of immense interest to India by virtue of the abundance of Thorium and relative shortage of Uranium. Thorium metal tubes were being cold drawn using copper as cladding to prevent die seizure. After cold drawing, the copper was removed by dissolution in nitric acid. Thorium does not dissolve being passivated by nitric acid.

Effect of Operating Void Fraction on Wall-Deposited Decay Heat in the Main Loop of a Molten Salt Reactor

Energies
In molten salt reactors, multiphase transport of fission products produces nonuniform nuclide inventories throughout the primary loop, thereby affecting subsequent decay heat evolution.

Thorium and fetal neural tube defects: an epidemiological evidence from large case-control study

Genes and Environment, 2021
Background Thorium is ubiquitous in the environment and its relationship with birth defects is still under discussion. This study aimed to investigate the associations of maternal exposure to thorium with risk of neural tube defects (NTDs) by using a ...

Preliminary Study of Transient Simulations in the MSRE Primary Loop with Modelica/TRANSFORM

Energies
Compared to conventional solid-fueled reactors, the liquid fuel transport in molten salt reactors (MSRs) leads to a strong coupling between thermal-hydraulics and neutronics.

Preoperative circulating tumor cells integrated with imaging analysis for prognostic evaluation in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Detecting circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in blood before surgery may help predict outcomes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Here, we show when combined with tumor size and lymph node involvement from routine imaging, CTC status identifies high‐risk patients with poorer survival—offering a simple, minimally invasive tool ...
