Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear fuel manufacturing, and particularly relates to a novel method for preparing nuclear-grade pure uranium tetrafluoride. The method comprises thefollowing steps: step 1, pretreating ammonium diuranate, step 2, pretreating ammonium fluoride, and step 3, preparing uranium tetrafluoride by a fluidized bed. Uranium diuranate is used as a raw material, and ammonium diuranate is pretreated through drying, so that ammonium fluoride is thermally decomposed under a high-temperature condition, and mixed gas of hydrogen fluoride and ammonia gas is prepared. Then the pretreated ammonium diuranate and ammonium fluoride are subjected to thermal decomposition to prepare mixed gas of hydrogen fluoride and ammonia gas, uranium tetrafluoride is preparedin a fluidized bed, and the purposes of cost reduction and environment-friendly preparation of nuclear-grade uranium tetrafluoride can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear fuel manufacture, and in particular relates to a method for preparing nuclear-grade pure uranium tetrafluoride. Background technique [0002] The uranium nuclear fuel cycle mainly includes several processes such as uranium mining and hydrometallurgy processing, uranium purification and conversion, isotope separation, and spent fuel reprocessing. [0003] Purification of uranium is to prepare the raw solution by dissolving uranium chemical concentrate in nitric acid. After extraction, stripping and other processes, the refined uranyl nitrate solution is obtained after purification, and then the uranyl nitrate is converted into uranium oxide by denitrification. At present, there are two main types of uranium oxides prepared by denitration methods at home and abroad, namely chemical denitration method (ie wet denitration method) and thermal denitration method (dry method). [0004] Chemical denitrif...
