  • 본 연구는 건식 용융염 전해정련실험에서 고체음극에 순수 우라늄금속 전착되는 최적조건을 얻기 위한 내용이다. 실험 결과, 용융염(LiCl-KCl)중 $UCl_3$의 농도가 2wt%이상이 존재할 때 고체음극에 순수한 우라늄이 전착됨을 알았다. 또한, 전착물중 전류밀도와 용융염중 U의 함량이 미치는 영향과 우라늄의 형태에 관한 연구가 수행되었다.

  • Electrolytic reduction of uranium oxide to uranium metal was studied in a $LiCl-Li_{2}O$ molten salt system. The reduction mechanism of the uranium oxide to a uranium metal has been studied by means of a cyclic voltammetry. Effects of the layer thickness of the uranium oxide and the thickness of the MgO on the overpotential of the cathode and the anode were investigated by means of a chronopotentiometry. From the cyclic voltamograms, the decomposition potentials of the metal oxides are the determining factors for the mechanism of the reduction of the uranium oxide in a $LiCl-3\;wt{\%} Li_{2}O$ molten salt and the two mechanisms of the electrolytic reduction were considered with regards to the applied cathode potential. In the chronopotentiograms, the exchange current and the transfer coefficient based on the Tafel behavior were obtained with regard to the layer thickness of the uranium oxide which is loaded into the porous MgO membrane and the thickness of the porous MgO membrane. The maximum allowable currents for the changes of the layer thickness of the uranium oxide and the thickness of the MgO membrane were also obtained from the limiting potential which is the decomposition potential of LiCl.

  • In this paper, electrolytic behavior of Cerium and Ce-Bi ion system was studied. The electrochemical behavior of Ce was studied in $LiCl-KCl-CeCl_3$ molten salts using electrochemical techniques Cyclic Voltammetry on tungsten electrodes at 773K. During the process of CV electrolysis, intermetallic compound were observed of Ce, Cex-Biy. Further study, in order to determine clarity of diffusion coefficient in this experiment, we will compare result of electrochemistry method and we also need to quantitative research.

  • 우라늄 산화물의 금속전환을 위해 고온 용융염 중에서 전기화학적 환원공정에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 본 공정은 우라늄 산화물뿐만 아니라 다른 악틴족 원소 산화물 및 일부 희토류원소 산화물 역시 금속으로 환원되는 장점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 금속산화물들은 독창적으로 고안된 일체형 음극 및 불활성 양극을 이용하여 금속으로 환원되며, 음극에서 발생된 산소 이온은 양극으로 전달되어 산화됨으로서 산소기체를 발생시킨다. 용융염 중에서 알칼리 및 알칼리토류 산화물에 대한 전기화학적 거동은 아직 완전히 밝혀지지 않았으며, 후행핵연료주기의 단위공정으로서 개발중에 있다. 사용후핵연료의 열 부하는 주로 세슘 및 스트론슘에 의한 것으로, LiC1 용융염 중에서 세슘, 스트론슘 및 바륨 산화물에 대한 용해 속도 및 환원전위를 고찰하였다.

  • Electrochemical behaviors of Nb ion in the $LiCl-KCl-NbCl_5$ molten salt were examined. Cyclic voltammograms with different scan rates and scan range at $450^{\circ}C$ showed possible electrochemical redox reactions which were identified by comparison to the literature data. Peak potentials for each redox reaction were consistent with the literature, but some redox reactions were not clearly defined due to the formation of subchloride compound in chloride salt. The electrochemical behaviors of Nb ion related to the subchloride formation as well as Nb metal deposition will be investigated for the future work.
