Times Cited Count:11 Percentile:63.79(Nuclear Science & Technology)In order to obtain the engineering data on the lithium target system, which is the neutron source of the International Fusion Material Irradiation Facility (IFMIF), the design and fabrication of the IFMIF/EVEDA Lithium Test Loop are being carried out under the Engineering Validation and Engineering Design Activity (EVEDA). The loop will hold 2.5 tons of lithium. Since lithium is specified by Japanese law as a dangerous substance, countermeasures which assumed a lithium leak incident and various abnormal issues are indispensable. This paper describes about the safety principles and measures for lithium leaks of the IFMIF/EVEDA lithium test loop decided under the detailed design process.

A few studies have been so far performed on aqueous chemistry of Db, the group-5 superheavy element, by anion-exchange experiments in HF and HF/HNO mixture solutions. Although the distribution coefficient (Kd) of Db was shown to trend to Ta Nb Db Pa in the group-5 homologs and pseudo-homolog elements, its chemical species has not been clarified. In this work, for identification of fluoride species of Db, we performed anion-exchange experiments of Nb, Ta, and Db in HF/1.0 M HNO mixture solutions by using an automated rapid chemistry apparatus, ARCA.
