Abstract: A ventilation panel for an enclosure of an industrial machine is disclosed herein. In embodiments, the ventilation panel includes a panel silencer and a fire damper assembly. The panel silencer includes a number of panels joined together to form an internal cavity and a front panel opening that provides access into the internal cavity. The fire damper assembly partially inserts into the panel silencer. The fire damper assembly includes a plurality of isolation louvers and an actuation assembly. The plurality of isolation louvers are rotatably affixed within the fire damper assembly. The actuation assembly rotates the plurality of isolation louvers into a closed position when activated.

Abstract: A uranium oxide product is formed in a gaseous reaction medium from uranium hexafluoride by interaction with a fuel gas such as hydrogen and oxygen. Oxide content and particle properties of the uranium oxide product are governed by the improved method and the apparatus for carrying out the method. An improvement is provided by applying a quenching gas to quench the conversion reaction of uranium hexafluoride to uranium oxide, and a combustion reactor apparatus which enables the application of the quenching gas is also provided.

Abstract: A method and binder composition for prolonging the induced plasticity of a particulate ceramic material admixture comprising uranium dioxide and a fugitive binder, and product thereof, for subsequent compaction by compression molding in the manufacture of nuclear fuel pellets. The fugitive binder comprises a reaction product of an amine carbonate or amine carbamate and ammonium oxalate reacted with uranium dioxide at a temperature of at least 65.degree. C. The uranyl oxalate-carbonate reaction product has the composition of (UO.sub.2 (CO.sub.3) (C.sub.2 O.sub.4). 2H.sub.2 O). 2H.sub.2 O.

Abstract: An improved method for compression molding typically brittle, particulate ceramic materials comprising uranium dioxide in the manufacture of nuclear fuel products.
