Salt wall in a molten salt reactor
Some embodiments include a method comprising: flowing a molten salt out of a molten salt reactor at a first temperature, heating the molten salt reactor to a second temperature above the melding point of the second salt mixture causing the second salt mixture to melt; flowing the second salt mixture out of the molten salt reactor; flowing a third salt mixture into the molten salt reactor; and cooling the molten salt reactor from the second temperature to a third temperature causing the third salt mixture to solidify on the interior surface of the housing. In some embodiments, the molten salt may include a first salt mixture comprising at least uranium. In some embodiments, the first temperature is a temperature above the melting point of the first salt mixture.

Production of rounded salt particles
The present disclosure generally relates to methods of preparing spherical salt particles for industrial, medical, and other uses. The methods can include combining the angular salt particles with a quantity of finishing media, for example, into a receptacle. Thereafter, the angular salt particles and the finishing media can be moved or agitated until the angular salt particles have a desired sphericity.

Systems and methods to chemically treat metal-bearing waste streams to recover value-added materials
Disclosed herein are system and methods to effectively leach coal ash with hydrochloric acid and separate an insoluble silica product and then selectively precipitate, from the leachate, a number to value-added, strategic, marketable products using a hydroxide reagent. The resulting precipitated products include iron, aluminum, magnesium, calcium, and a mixture of rare earth elements and transition metals. These can be separated as hydroxides or converted to oxides or carbonates. Using hydrochloric acid for leaching and converting the chloride to sodium chloride in the final step results in practically no waste for this process. The silica can be further purified using sodium hydroxide fusion or caustic leach methods and some minor streams from this process are recycled to minimize any waste stream. These systems and methods can be applied to a number of other industrial waste products such as red mud from the aluminum process, slag from steel furnaces, mine tailings, and other metal-bearing waste streams.
Method for manufacturing high-performance composite active material of zinc oxide powder
The present invention is a method for manufacturing a high-performance composite active material of zinc oxide powder, which is a method for manufacturing a high-performance composite active zinc oxide material powder as an aid for an operation of shaping and vulcanization of rubber/plastic materials, generally carried out by mixing an alkali solution and a calcium compound, in combination with addition of a zinc salt to directly carry out a chemical reaction therewith through mixture so as to obtain a precipitation solution of a predetermined pH value, following a process of filtering to remove water to form an intermediate powder material, which is subjected to drying to form zinc oxide long crystal material exhibiting nanometer scale high performance composite activity, helping achieve a purpose of diversification of application of zinc oxide power in industry.
