A conceptual flow diagram of the dissolution process is shown in Fig. 12. Initially, the cladding and the aluminum in the irradiated target are dissolved in 3M sodium hydroxide. Sodium nitrate (NaNC>3) is added to the system to minimize hydrogen production during the dissolution. A gas sparge is used during the dissolution
