Electrochemical reduction of metal oxides in molten salts for nuclear reprocessing

This thesis examines the electrochemical reduction of metal oxides in molten salts for nuclear reprocessing applications. The objective of this research is to characterise and understand the direct electrochemical reduction of UO2 to U metal in a LiCl-KCl molten salt eutectic, as part of the nuclear...
