Abstract

The invention discloses a molten salt deoxidizing method using nitrogen trifluoride as a fluorinating agent. The molten salt deoxidizing method comprises the following steps: (1) removing air and water in a reactor, wherein the reactor is filled with a molten salt; (2) heating the reactor until the molten salt is completely melted, introducing a mixed gas of nitrogen trifluoride and an inert gas,and performing a reaction for 12-72 h, wherein the volume fraction of the nitrogen trifluoride in the mixed gas of nitrogen trifluoride and the inert gas is 5-50%. The method using the nitrogen trifluoride instead of hydrogen fluoride as the fluorinating agent overcomes the defects of poor safety, severe corrosion and short service life of a the reactor, complexity in operation and high cost in the prior art; and the nitrogen trifluoride has a low chemical toxicity, and has stable properties at room temperature.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of nuclear energy industry technology and dry metallurgy technology, and specifically relates to a method for deoxidizing molten salt using nitrogen trifluoride as a fluorinating agent. Background technique [0002] The molten salt reactor is the only liquid fuel reactor among the fourth generation reactors, and its main feature is the use of molten fluorine salt as the nuclear fuel carrier salt and / or coolant. The pure molten salt system is less corrosive, but when the molten salt contains water and oxygen impurities, its corrosiveness to the reactor and loop piping increases. In addition, some oxides may react with nuclear fuel to generate slurry or precipitate in the reactor, resulting in unstable operation of the reactor and even accidents. Therefore, maintaining a low oxygen content in the molten salt system is of great significance for reducing corrosion and ensuring safe operation of the reactor. [0003] In ...
