A remotely operated device was developed for determining the coalescence times of solvent extraction plant process streams suspected of containing surfactants. Using the device, the coalescence times of pilot plant extraction column feed streams were correlated with observations of column behavior. Measurements made on plant streams derived from fully-irradiated fuels were used in the Idaho Chemical Processing Plant to predict the behavior of such streams and to prevent attempted processing with incompatible chemical systems.
