    摘要: A transport and storage flask for radioactive material comprising a hollow body having lifting trunnions and external neutron shielding about the body except in the regions of the trunnions. To compensate for lack of shielding at the trunnions, blind bores in the body containing further neutron shielding material extend beneath the trunnions.

    摘要: Volumetrically efficient radioative waste container apparatus, wherein the container apparatus includes a plurality of open pockets recessed into the outside surface of the container, a plurality of lifting lugs each completely disposed within and attached to each pocket and further includes a container adaptor capable of being connected to the lifting lugs for reacting torque and lifting loads and for lifting the container. An opening is provided in the container for filling the container with waste. A coupling is provided in the opening as an attachment point for a mixing blade assembly which mixes and homogenizes the waste transferred into the container. A motor is connected to the adaptor for rotating the mixing blade. The adaptor further includes arms and lifting brackets for transferring the motor's torque to the lifting lugs. The adaptor also includes stiffeners attached to the motor, the arms, and to the lifting brackets for resisting the torque transferred to the lifting lugs. The lifting lugs do not protrude beyond the external surface of the container; thererfore, the volume defined by the external envelope of the container is minimized.

    摘要: A composite radiation shield which provides physical and economic benefits for the shielding of radiation especially in containers for transporting radioactive material. The composite radiation shield contains rods of a high density material such as depleted uranium or tungsten. The spaces between the rods may contain smaller rods and are also backfilled with lead or other preferably high density material with a melting point lower than the material of the rods. The rod diameters and arrangement can be easily customized to accommodate any radiation shield configuration needed.

    摘要: A thermal protection shell for protecting the exterior walls of a radioactive waste container disclosed herein. The shell generally comprises a wall of heat conductive material, such as aluminum or magnesium, which circumscribes and engages the exterior of the waste container walls in intimate, heat-conducting contact under ambient temperature conditions. The thermal coefficient of expansion of the material forming the shell is chosen to be greater than the thermal coefficient of expansion of the material forming the container walls, which are typically steel, so that the heat-conducting contact between the shell and the outer walls is broken when the shell is exposed to a fire. The shell is formed in sections which are rigidly interconnectable by bolt assemblies formed from the same material as the shell itself. The use of such sections allows the shell to be easily mounted over existing radioactive waste containers, and adjusted to fit containers of different diameters.

    摘要: A spent fuel storage cask for long-term storage of spent nuclear fuel following short-term storage in a pool of water. The cask includes a grid basket assembly, resembling a matrix of pigeonholes, for accommodating cells which in turn accommodate spent fuel assemblies. The grid basket assembly is formed by metal plates which transmit heat to channel sections affixed to the interior walls of the cask. The edges of the plates movably fit into the channel sections in order to permit radial movement of the grid basket assembly with respect to the walls of the cask as temperature changes. During storage the cask can be flooded with helium, which readily transmits heat through narrow gaps between the edges of the plates and the walls of the channel sections. Several embodiments of cells having material for moderating neutrons emitted from spent fuel assemblies are also enclosed, some of these embodiments permitting easy conversion of the cask for storing consolidated fuel rather than intact fuel assemblies.

    摘要: The invention concerns a depository for radioactive waste and spent fuel cells comprising a concrete storage block in which several vertical storage and cooling channels are provided for accommodating the radioactive waste and the fuel cells. In order to provide an improved and safer concrete depository vis-a-vis the state of the art, the storage block is composed of several concrete blocks disposed beside and above one another. In the concrete blocks there are several vertical channels. The aligned channels of several concrete blocks placed on top of one another form storage and cooling channels for accommodating tubular storage containers for the radioactive waste and radioactive spent fuel cells. An annular gap is left for cooling air between the outer wall of the storage containers and the inner wall of the storage and cooling channels.

    摘要: A storage container is disclosed for accommodating fuel rods of disassemb irradiated nuclear reactor fuel elements. The storage container includes a circular storage space into which a cage receiving the canned fuel rods is inserted. The individual fuel-rod cans are arranged in the insert cage in the form of a circle in order to achieve a good removal of heat. Hold-down springs bear on the end faces of the cans. The radial extension of the fuel-rod cans towards the longitudinal center of the container is limited to accommodate an empty square central shaft in the middle of the insert cage.

    摘要: Stackable long-term storage container especially for radioactive waste comprises especially convoluted lid and bottom pieces to facilitate stacking. The lid is convoluted providing an annular projection which serves to allow grabbing of the lid and, together therewith, the drum. The floor has a rim which extends axially away from the floor and then is bent over upward toward the drum with drainage openings provided at the bottom edge. A resilient jacket is disposed around the bottom edge and surrounds the rim to prevent direct contact between the drums and scratching during stacking. A fiberglass reinforced plastic insert inside the drum protects the inner wall from damage. The special shape of the drum prevents causes for corrosion under all operating conditions of the drum, especially during very rough handling of the drum during filling, transport and storage.
