Article Synopsis
  • The paper focuses on determining the levels of oxygen-containing impurities in the LiF-NaF-KF salt mixture using electrochemical and reduction melting methods.
  • It was found that after a purification process via electrolysis, the concentration of these impurities decreased significantly, by a factor of 7.
  • The techniques used showed strong correlation, allowing for effective evaluation and potential development of methods for analyzing oxygen in fluoride melts.

The supercritical water-cooled reactors (SWCR) belong to Generation IV of reactors. These reactors have a number of advantages over currently operating WWERs and PWRs. These advantages include higher thermal efficiency, a more simplified unit design, and the possibility of incorporating it into a closed fuel cycle.

The problem of tailoring the structural materials for MSR is solved by continuously overcoming the shortcomings of widely used materials and finding new ones. The materials commonly used in engineering may not be applicable for MSR due to their high corrosivity. Experiments were carried out to determine the corrosion rate of stainless steel 12Cr18Ni10Ti with different concentrations of oxide ions (by adding lithium oxide to the melt in the concentration range from 0 to 0.
