C.-628 GOVERNMENT OF INDIA ATOMIC ENERGY COMMISSION < RADIOC HEMISTRY DIVISION ANNUAL PROGRESS REPORT FOR 1971 Edited by R. H. Iyer and M. V. Ramaniah Radiochemistry Division BHABHA ATOMIC RESEARCH CENTRE BOMBAY, INDIA 1972 IHTRODUCTIO The major highlights of the activities of the Hadiochemistry Division during the year 1971 were research and development work on the actinides and other radioelements and services like chemical, mass speetro- metric, x-ray and optical spectrographio analysis of plutonium and other radioactive materials and supply of special radioactive sources to various institutions inside and outside BAEC. As in previous years, research on the actinide elements centered around solution and radiation chemistry of Plutonium, study of various complexes using x-rayf e.p.r. therraograviraetrio, Mossbauer and optical spectrographie techniques and investigations of neutron induced fission. The development work on actinides included process chemistry of neptunium, preliminary studies on transpluton* ;«>. elements, setting v.p and operation of gamma-ray and neutron monitoring assemblies SOB the in-line analysis of fission products and plutoniuim respectively in Ssel reprocessing streams and the accurate analysis of plutonium in plutonius oxide samples and sintered FUO? pellets* In the chemical development worie on molten salt breeder reactor ooncept utilizing plutonium, the solubility of Plutonium trifluoride was determined in the ternary system and the binary system CONTENTS introduction SECTION 1 I SOLUTION AND BABIATION CHEMI3THI 1.1 Sol-rant Extraction Studies 1.1.1 Synergiatio extraction of uranyl Ion 1 1.1.2 Extraction of some txivalent lanthanides from thiocyamte by neutral organophOBphoroas extraotanfe* ft 1.1.3 Studies on the oomplexes of lantbanidea 12 111.4 Investigations on the chemistry of Pa(YIl) W 1.2 Studies in Radiation Chemistsy 1.2.1 Gamma radiolysis of plutonitto(lIl)/(lT) syatea In 0.8 N, 6 H and S N hydrochloric acid solutions t@ 1.2.2 Ganma radiolysis of plutonlum(lll) in adtric aoid solutions 25 1.2.3 EPR stadia8 of intermediates fcaned in xadiolytio and redcoc reactions in aqueous medium 29 1.2.4 Badlation chemistry of nitrio acid JO 1.2.5 Two phase radiolyaie and the effect of radiatiou on ffa* . diBtxihution coefficient of uraniwa and piatoniua 36 1.2*6 Slaeh photolysis of sulphanllanld* and ether p-suhstituted anilines 39 SECTION 2 t STHtrCTORAL STUDIES 2*1 Solid Complexes of Uranyl 0 -diketones with I>ea«r Chain Aliphatic Sulphoxides ' 44 2.2 Stability Correlations and Sterio Effects of Synergistia Complexes 45 2*3 X-ray Structural Studies Ill 2.3.1 Refinement; of the oryetal structure of uranyl oxalate 48 2.3.2 Qralato and aoetato complexes of aotiaides 51 2.5«3 Non-stoiehiometrio oxides of the lanthanides 55 2.3.4 Calibration of Mattler thermoanal^sec » 2*4 Mouebauer Studies 2*4*1 Moesbauer studies on some 58 145 2,4.2 Preparation of Pa g3 2.5 Fluorescence and Absorption Spectrum of Tb*+ Ion in laBr, Crystal g^ 2.6 Energy-tranafer Studies in Raxe Earth Chelates $$ 2.7 BPH Study of TC-"H" in UOgtHOjJgifiHgG Single Crystal 74 SSCTIQR 5 1 NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY 5*1 Eadiochemical Studies on Fission 3*1.1 Be coil ranges and kinetio energy distribution in the reactor neutron fission of 23'Hp 80 3.1.2 Becoil ranges of isobar pairs iu tbs thermal neutron fission of ^-*tf & 3 >1 "3 Studies on highly asymmetrlo binary fission t Fission of natural uranium with reaotor neutxons • Sf 3.2 mission Studies using Solid-state Track Deteotors 3.2*1 Total fLsaion cross section for th» thermal and 14 MeV neutron induced fission of 231 Pa 94 3*2.2 Mass and angular distritution in Mission using correlated fission track technique 95 3*2*3 Analysis of angular distributioo data at 15*9 BeT $B 3*2*4 Thermal neutron flu>x , distributioj n at the thermal 102 3«3 ilaaion Studies using ilass Spaotecmgtrie Steebniqa© 106 3*4. - Calibration of a <fe(Li) Detector 106 iT 3»5 EUotrodeposition of Aotinides 3*5.1 ELeotrodeposition studies with 244Ca 107 3*5.2 KLeotrodeposition of piotaotiniun 112 3*5*3 Mechanism of electrodeposition of aoSinide* 113 3.6 Computer Programme for Analysis of Oe(ll) Gamma-ray Spectra 115 SSCTIOH 4 t FBOOESS CHEHI3THT 4*1 Process Chemistry Oi Feptuniun 117 4*2 In-line Analysis of Fuel Bsprooarsing Streaas 123 4.2.1 In-line monitoring of fission products 124 4*2*2 Heutrca monitoring for plratocj.um 331 4*4.43 ^-raIransplatoniuy Huoxesoenom Elemente Analysis s of Aotinide Blemeafcs 132 in Solution 136 SECTION 5 t REACTOR CHMISTHY 5.1 Chemical Development Work on Molten Salt Breeder Beaotor Concept c - ^ 5.1*1 Preparation of pure Thl1. and I1F 141 5.1*2 Solubility of^ PuFj In l^^Fg^B^ m^t«^s 142 5.1 »3 SoluTsilHy of PtiFj in LiF-IMP. nixtux«s 14i5 5.1.4 Impendence of solubility of PuF, on the salt ooapoeition 146 SSCTIOH 6 s AMLTfTlCAt CHEMISTRY iMD MISCELLANEOUS SiSKVICSS 6.1 Mass Speetrometry ISO 6.1.1 Analytical eerricea : 150 Isotope dilution method for input accountability in a reprocess ire plant 151 Fuel burn-up measurements 152 Determination of "^tJ content of Natural and Depleted Uranium Samples by Fission Track Method 154 Analysis of FuO. fos Auditing 159 Emission Bpeotzoscopy Analysis of some common impurities in high purity selenium 159 New Badiochemical Methods for the Separation of Cu and Heavy Bare Earth Elements from Fission Products 67 fiadiochemical separation of 'Cu activity 16?

The best way to discover and follow fashion trends is to do one of three things: 1. Order a Subscription to Women's Wear Daily.

  • Dear Friends
    Dear friends, I am pleased to confirm that Croatian tourism achieved its strategic and tactical goals in 2008. We finished the year 2008 with over 11 million tourist arrivals and 57 million tourist overnights. The financial result is even more remarkable. At the moment, we expect to earn over 7.1 billion euros in tourism in 2008 This year, Croatian tourism made its new qualitative shift in the increase of quality accommodation capacities, service quality and new facilities. Country Brand Index, the world’s leading brand monitoring organization, has recognized this and proclaimed Croatia a Rising Star – a destination that would become more important and demanded in the world over the next five years. Namely, within all the segments of Croatian tourism there is consciousness about the possible negative influence of the world economic crisis, but also a certain level of optimism for 2009, the year which, under the condition of active partnership and careful politics in tourism, can bring Croatia the preservation of its relative share in the world tourist environment and in relation to the rivals from the European Mediterranean Sustainable development of tourism relying on natural resources and historical & cultural heritage is the basis for the future national tourism strategy that will determine the development of Croatian tourism. Our response to the demanding year 2009 will surely include excellence in each segment at affordable prices. In addition to raising the quality, the key is also in the opening of new markets and contribution of local self- government in destination promotion because guests do not merely come to the hotel – they primarily come to the town! We will therefore certainly ensure substantial increase in the funds for promotion of Croatian tourism on foreign markets where consequences of the economic crisis are already felt.
