Description

ABSTRACT:
A process and apparatus for the production of pourable, directly compactable uranium dioxide powder by continuous precipitation of uranium peroxide from a stirred uranyl nitrate solution at a pH of 1-2.5 with hydrogen peroxide, calcining of the peroxide at 500.degree.-800.degree. C. and subsequent reduction at 550.degree.-750.degree. C. The precipitation solution contains 70-150 g/l of uranium and 0.80 g/l of ammonium nitrate and is treated with 15-20% aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution in the ratio of U:H.sub.2 O.sub.2 from 1:1.5 to 1:3 and there is led through the solution a mixture of ammonia and air having an air-ammonia volume ratio of 1:0.3-0.6.
