OBS

Dissolution du combustible. Étape clef du procédé, la dissolution a pour but de faire passer en solution nitrique le plus complètement possible les éléments (uranium et plutonium principalement) contenus dans les combustibles irradiés afin de pouvoir les récupérer et les purifier à l'aide du procédé PUREX [...] La dissolution s'opère en milieu liquide, généralement à l'ébullition, avec comme réactif l'acide nitrique. Elle peut s'effectuer soit en discontinu (batch dissolution), soit en continu.

In most metallic [solar collector] systems, especially those using a number of metals or a reactive metal such as aluminum, the heat transfer fluid can have a significant impact on corrosion. In aqueous solutions, the concentration of dissolved chemicals, heavy metal ions, and pH of the fluid must be controlled. Deionized or demineralized water has been used successfully but additional steps are usually taken. These include the use of a gettering column to trap heavy metal ions before they enter critical parts of the system and inhibitors which stabilize the metal ions and reduce their reaction with less noble metals.
