Zusammenfassung: | The invention relates to UF6 transport and process containers to store UF6 enriched up to 20 percent by weight 235U in amounts up to 1,500 kg U. The containers include a shell, which has an integral heat exchanger positioned between the exterior and interior surfaces/substrates of the shell. The integral heat exchanger is composed of metal passage voids to pass heat transport fluid. The shell forms an inner chamber, and a partition configuration is positioned within the inner chamber, extending longitudinally along the length of the container, to form a plurality of individual compartments within the inner chamber to store the UF6. The containers may be produced by additive manufacturing methods. |
