Actinide co-conversion is a key step, between fuel reprocessing, and refabrication. Two processes are being developed, to produce a solid actinide compound, at the head of the fabrication line, having practically the right, desired preform : these are the sol–gel process, using internal gelation, to form spherical actinide kernels(coated particle concept) ; andoxalic coprecipitation, to form a solid solution of actinides(pellet, or cylindrical pellet concept). 2, record 1, English, - actinide%20co%2Dconversion

La coconversion des actinides est une étape clé entre le traitement et la refabrication du combustible. Deux procédés de coconversion sont en cours de développement afin de produire, à l’entrée de la chaîne de fabrication, un composé solide d’actinides directement utilisable pour l’étape de refabrication. Ce sont le procédé sol-gel par gélification interne pour la formation de noyaux sphériques d’actinides (combustibles à particules enrobées) et la coprécipitation oxalique pour la formation de solution solide d’actinides (combustibles à pastilles ou bâtonnets). 1, record 1, French, - coconversion%20des%20actinides

The equilibrium characterized by an unequal distribution of diffusible ions between two ionic solutions (one or both of the solutions may be gelled) separated by a membrane which is impermeable to at least one of the ionic species present, e.g. because they are too large to pass through the pores of the membrane. 4, record 2, English, - Donnan%20equilibrium

The membrane may be replaced by other kinds of restraint, such as gelation, the field of gravity, etc., which prevent some ionic components from moving from one phase to the other, but allow other components to do so. 4, record 2, English, - Donnan%20equilibrium

Partage par équilibre de Donnan. Ce type de rétention n'est pas dû à une réaction d'échange ionique; c'est un mécanisme de partage des solutés entre les deux phases, observé a la fois avec les solutés ioniques et non ioniques. [...] On peut utiliser ce mécanisme de partage pour effectuer des séparations en utilisant le partage des espèces entre une résine gonflée par de l'eau (donc ionisée) et un solvant mixte, eau-éthanol par exemple. [...] Le partage de solutés non ioniques peut également être accentué de manière différente : il augmente lorsque la force ionique de la phase mobile augmente. 4, record 2, French, - %C3%A9quilibre%20de%20Donnan

Un procédé sol-gel alternatif au procédé GSP peut également être envisagé pour la fabrication des noyaux : il s'agit du procédé de gélification interne à l'hexaméthylènetétramine (HMTA). Le principe de ce procédé ne consiste plus à réaliser l'opération de gélification/précipitation par de l'ammoniaque qui diffuse de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur de la sphère, mais à l'aide d'un précurseur interne (HMTA) qui libère de l'ammoniaque lors d'une augmentation de température de 0 à 80 °C environ. 1, record 3, French, - proc%C3%A9d%C3%A9%20de%20g%C3%A9lification%20interne
