Times Cited Count：3 Percentile：75.08(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)In this work, the mechanisms responsible for the adsorption of molybdate ions on alumina are investigated using in-depth surface analyses carried out on alumina specimens immersed in solutions containing different molybdate ions at different pH values. The obtained results reveal that when alumina is immersed in an acidic solution containing molybdate ions, the hydroxyl groups present on the surface are removed to generate positively charged sites, and molybdate ions (MoO
or AlMo
O
H
) are adsorbed by electrostatic interaction. Alumina dissolves slightly in an acidic solution to form AlMoOH, which is more easily desorbed than MoO. Furthermore, the enhancement in the Mo adsorption or desorption property may be achieved by enriching the surface of the alumina adsorbent with many -OH groups and optimizing Mo solution to adsorb molybdate ions on alumina as MoO ions. These findings will assist researchers in engineering more efficient and stable alumina-based adsorbents for molybdenum adsorption used in medical radioisotope (Mo/Tc) generators.

Technetium-99m (Tc), the daughter nuclide of Molybdenum-99 (Mo), is the most commonly used radioisotope in radiopharmaceuticals. The research and development (R&D) for the production of Mo by the neutron activation method ((n, ) method) has been carried out from viewpoints of no-proliferation and nuclear security, etc. Since the specific activity of Mo produced by the (n, ) method is extremely low, developing Al
O
with a large Mo adsorption capacity is necessary to adapt (n, )Mo to the generator. In this study, three kinds of AlO specimens with different raw materials were prepared and compared their adaptability to generators by static and dynamic adsorption. MoO pellet pieces (1.5g) were irradiated with 5 MW for 20 min in the Kyoto University Research Reactor (KUR). Irradiated MoO pellet pieces were dissolved in 6M-NaOH aq. In dynamic adsorption, 1 g of AlO was filled into a PFA tube (
1.59 mm). The Mo adsorption capacity of AlO specimens under dynamic condition was slightly reduced compared to that under static condition. The Tc elution rate was about 100% at 1.5 mL of milking in dynamic adsorption, while it was around 56-87% in static adsorption. The Mo/Tc ratio of dynamic condition was greatly reduced compared to that of static condition. Therefore, the Tc elution property is greatly affected by the method of adsorbing Mo, e.g., the column shape, the linear flow rate, etc.

Times Cited Count：1 Percentile：25.87(Chemistry, Analytical)We prepared three types of AlO with different surface structures and investigated Mo-adsorption/Tc-elution properties using [Mo]MoO that was irradiated in the Kyoto University Research Reactor. AlO adsorbed [Mo]molybdate ions in solutions at different pH; the lower was the pH, the higher was the Mo-adsorption capacity of AlO. The Tc-elution properties of molybdate ion adsorbed AlO were elucidated by flowing saline. Consequently, it was suggested that Mo-adsorption/desorption properties are affected by the specific surface of AlO and Tc-elution properties are affected by the crystal structure of AlO.

Times Cited Count：14 Percentile：59.39(Chemistry, Multidisciplinary)The effective utilization of various biomolecules for creating a series of mesoporous boehmite (-AlOOH) and gamma-alumina (-AlO) nanosheets with unique hierarchical multilayered structures is demonstrated. The nature and concentration of the biomolecules strongly influence the degree of the crystallinity, the morphology, and the textural properties of the resulting -AlOOH and -AlO nanosheets, allowing for easy tuning. The hierarchical -AlOOH and -AlO multilayered nanosheets synthesized by using biomolecules exhibit enhanced crystallinity, improved particle separation, and well-defined multilayered structures compared to those obtained without biomolecules. More impressively, these -AlOOH and -AlO nanosheets possess high surface areas up to 425 and 371 m
/g, respectively, due to their mesoporous nature and hierarchical multilayered structure. When employed for molybdenum adsorption toward medical radioisotope production, the hierarchical -AlO multilayered nanosheets exhibit Mo adsorption capacities of 33.1

It is well-known that pool-type SFRs are the main streams recently in a field of Generation IV reactors. The pool-type encloses primary pumps and IHXs located around the core barrel in a main vessel. Consequently, the main vessel diameter trends to be larger than that of loop-types. From the viewpoint of commercialization in the future, a target of the vessel diameter and its weight including Sodium coolant will increase further. In this paper, the prospects are described in terms of seismic design and structural integrity for the thermal loadings to prevent buckling of the reactor vessel based on parameter studies with diameters of the vessel. In addition, the seismic isolation device which will be effective as a countermeasure is proposed in order to secure a margin against buckling of a large reactor vessel.

In the first licensing procedure of the prototype FBR "Monju", the event sequence of ULOF (Unprotected Loss of Flow) was analyzed and the estimated mechanical energy was about 380 MJ as an isentropic expansion potential to atmospheric pressure. The prototype FBR has been stopped for more than 10 years since the sodium leakage accident in the secondary loop in 1995. The neutronic characteristics of reactor core changed as a consequence of radioactive decay of fissile Plutonium during this shutdown period. In order to assess the effect of this neutronic characteristics change to the mechanical energy release in ULOF, the event sequence of ULOF was analyzed reflecting the current knowledge, which was obtained by safety studies after the first licensing of the prototype reactor. It was shown that the evaluated mechanical energy release became smaller than 380 MJ, even with the change of neutronic characteristics.
