Division Spotlight
Decommissioning & Environmental Sciences
The mission of the Decommissioning and Environmental Sciences (DES) Division is to promote the development and use of those skills and technologies associated with the use of nuclear energy and the optimal management and stewardship of the environment, sustainable development, decommissioning, remediation, reutilization, and long-term surveillance and maintenance of nuclear-related installations, and sites. The target audience for this effort is the membership of the Division, the Society, and the public at large.

This paper deals with the estimation of and of the PuPu redox couple in LiCl-KCl eutectic melt using statistical data fitting of experimental data. The value was also estimated in our laboratory at 723 and 773 K using logarithmic analysis of semi-integral voltammograms and chronopotentiograms. From semi-integral curves, was found to be −2.888 0.021 and −2.810 0.021 V at 723 and 773 K, respectively, whereas it was −2.851 0.020 V at 773 K from the analysis of chronopotentiograms. Based on subsequent statistical analysis, we recommend the following expressions for and applicable for the temperature range 673 to 823 K:andThe value in LiCl-KCl eutectic melt was estimated from calculated for the reactionusing FactSage package, and it was expressed as
