Book Description
Four manuals containing methods for the accountability of plutonium nitrate solutions, plutonium dioxide, uranium dioxide and mixed uranium-plutonium oxide have been prepared by us and issued by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission. A similar manual on methods for the accountability of uranium and plutonium in reprocessing plant dissolver solutions is now in preparation. In the present paper, we discuss the contents of the previously issued manuals and give a preview of the manual now being prepared.

Publisher: Forgotten Books
ISBN: 9780484531498
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Excerpt from Analytical Methods for Safeguards and Accountability Measurements of Special Nuclear Materials During its history, the New Brunswick Laboratory (nel) has developed or modified and used highly precise and accurate methods for the determination of uranium, plutonium and thorium content and isotopic abundances in a wide variety of nuclear fuel cycle materials. Currently, these capabilities have been used to provide comprehensive analytical chemistry support for the Department of Energy (doe) and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (nrc) nuclear safeguards programs.

Plutonium Disposition Program
Author:
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Plutonium
Languages : en
Pages : 51
Book Description
NNSA, a separately organized agency within DOE, manages the Plutonium Disposition program to dispose of surplus weapons-grade plutonium by burning it as MOX fuel, a mixture of plutonium and uranium oxides, in specially modified commercial nuclear reactors. In 2012, DOE forecasted cost increases of close to $3 billion over the previous estimates for the program's two construction projects, the MOX facility and the WSB for disposing of waste from the MOX facility. GAO was asked to review these cost increases and the life-cycle cost estimate. This report examines: (1) drivers NNSA identified for the cost increases; (2) the extent to which NNSA analyzed underlying causes of the cost increases; (3) steps NNSA took to hold construction contractors accountable for their role, if any, in the cost increases; and (4) the extent to which NNSA's most recent estimates met cost- and schedule-estimating best practices. GAO reviewed NNSA's draft life-cycle cost estimate and contractor estimates of the MOX project's cost and WSB schedule, compared the estimates with cost- and schedule-estimating best practices, and interviewed DOE and NNSA officials. GAO is recommending, among other things, that DOE conduct a root cause analysis of the Plutonium Disposition program's cost increases and ensure that future estimates of the program's life-cycle cost and cost and schedule for the program's construction projects meet all best practices for reliable estimates.
