Reclamation with Recovery of Radionuclides and Toxic Metals from Contaminated Materials, Soils, and Wastes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
A process has been developed at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) for the removal of metals and radionuclides from contaminated materials, soils, and waste sites. In this process, citric acid, a naturally occurring organic complexing agent, is used to

Preparation and analysis of strain-free uranium surfaces for electron and x-ray diffraction analysis [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2018
This work describes a methodology for producing high quality metallic surfaces from uranium primarily for characterisation and investigations involving electron backscatter diffraction. Electrochemical measurements have been conducted to inform ideal polishing conditions to produce surfaces free from strain, induced by mechanical polishing.

On the practicalities of producing a nuclear weapon using high-assay low-enriched uranium [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
It was recently argued by Kemp et al. that HALEU (high-assay low-enriched uranium, or uranium enriched up to 19.75\%) can conceivably be used to produce a nuclear weapon and on this basis civilian enrichment limits should be lowered to 10% or 12%. We find their argument unconvincing in several respects.

Semi-Quantitative Analysis of Uranium Content Distribution Ratio in a Sandstone-Type Uranium Deposit in Songliao Basin

open access: yesYankuang ceshi
The Qianjiadian uranium deposit is a complex-metamorphic sandstone-type uranium mine located in the southern part of the Songliao Basin. To determine the state of uranium mineralization and its partitioning in different minerals, petrographic ...
