NEUP CINR-22-26614: Investigation into the processing parameters of phosphate-based dehalogenation for chloride-based waste salt

This proposal will focus on several topics needed to advance the iron phosphate process: 1) Dehalogenation/vitrification processes using salt simulants to generate process flow sheets, 2) Reactions of crucible materials with phosphate products and byproducts, 3) Collection of glass property-composition data to develop models based on the glass-forming regions, 4) Development of a process for reacting recovered NH4Cl with metals that need to be fed into the system (U, Li, etc.).
