Storage resist drying

Currently, aluminium based spent fuels from research reactors are in operational and interim wet storage. However, for an eventual extended storage as well as for disposal, there are some concerns about the suitability of the aluminium as a matrix resistant to water corrosion. Therefore, the preferred alternatives are extended storage in dry conditions and disposal of the derivatives from spent fuel processing instead of its direct disposal.

Ionomers are generally shipped in pellet form in the standard containers developed for large-volume polyolefins, eg, 500-kg boxes. Water-resistant liners are used to keep the products dry during shipment and storage. 

Shipment and Storage. Sulfur dichloride, if kept dry, is noncorrosive at ambient temperatures, thus carbon steel and Hon can be used Hi the constmction of tanks, piping, and dmms. However, when water or humidity is present, materials resistant to hydrochloric acid must be used, eg, glass-lined pipe. Teflon, titanium, HasteUoy C, or possibly a chemically resistant, glass-reiaforced polyester. Threaded pipe joHits should be assembled with Teflon tape. Hoses should be constmcted with a Teflon inner lining with the outer tube constmcted of Neoprene or braided 316 stainless steel protected by an adequate thickness of Teflon. Sulfur dichloride should be stored away from heat and away from dHect rays of the sum. Toluene and sulfur dichloride react exothermically when catalyzed by Hon or ferric chloride. Safety precautions should be foUowed when such a mixture is present (165).
