Application: Reactor for hydrolysis of uranium hexafluoride (Patent ID: US20230321621A1)

The patent filed by Electricite de France SA describes a reactor for hydrolysis of uranium hexafluoride, featuring a tubular injector with three concentric fluid circulation ducts connected to sources of UF6, inert gas, and water vapor. The tubular injector is manufactured using additive manufacturing technology. The design of the reactor allows for efficient hydrolysis of uranium hexafluoride within a hydrolysis chamber.

The reactor design includes specific configurations such as the second and third ducts extending around the first duct, fittings at the outer end connected to the respective sources, and oval outer sections along the tubular injector. Additionally, the tubular injector may have stiffening ribs and specific geometries to enhance the hydrolysis process. The use of additive manufacturing in creating the tubular injector ensures precision and customization in the design, contributing to the overall effectiveness of the uranium hexafluoride hydrolysis reactor.
