Artigo IPEN-doc 27005 Study of recycling process viability of zirconium alloys chips for melting in VAR furnace2017 - REIS, L.A.M.; ALENCAR, M.; GOMES, M.P.; PEREIRA, L.A.T.; MUCSI, C.S.; ROSSI, J.L.Cavacos de ligas de zircônio (M5, Zirlo, Zircaloy) são gerados em elevadas quantidades na confecção de tubos e tampões das varetas que compõem o elemento combustível de reatores de potência refrigerados a água pressurizada (PWR). Essas são ligas importadas e por isso é mostrado interesse pela indústria de reciclagem na sua reutilização. Este trabalho apresenta os estudos de um processo de reciclagem e a obtenção de eletrodos prensados para serem fundidos em um forno VAR (Vacuum Arc Remelting). O processo se inicia com uma separação magnética, lavagem do fluido de corte que é solúvel em água, utilização de um desengraxante industrial, seguido por um enxágue com fluxo contínuo de água em alta pressão e secagem por fluxo de ar quente. Para a obtenção de eletrodos, os cavacos foram prensados em uma matriz de seção quadrada 40x40 mm² com 500 mm de comprimento, resultando num eletrodo com 20% da densidade aparente da liga. A fusão foi feita um forno VAR de laboratório no CCTM-IPEN, gerando um lingote maciço de 0,8 kg. A fusão dos cavacos é possível e viável em um forno VAR o que reduz em até 40 vezes o volume de armazenamento desse material.Artigo IPEN-doc 27000 Effect of the cooling rates on heat-affected zone of UNS S32304 duplex stainless steel welded by pulsed GTAW process2017 - BETINI, E.G.; GOMES, M.P.; REIS, L.A.; MUCSI, C.S.; ALENCAR, M.C.; ORLANDO, M.T.D.; LUZ, T.S.; AVETTAND-FENOEL, M-N.; ROSSI, J.L.Two thin plates of UNS 32304 of duplex stainless steel were joined by pulsed gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) using a mixture 98% of argon plus 2% of nitrogen as shielding gas or pure argon as purging gas at the bottom of the plate without filler metal. The temperature profile close and away from the weld pool was measured using K type (Ni-Cr) thermocouples, connected to a digital data acquisition system. The thermal cycles was recorded in the heat-affected zone (HAZ) at a distance in between 1 and 3 mm from the joint line. The cooling rate and holding time were studied with respect to the used purging gas. Experimental thermal profiles are in good agreement with literature values. The joints welded without any purging gas revealed high peak temperature and cooling rates. The present investigation showed that temperature peaks are comprised in the phase transformation temperature ranges for the welded duplex stainless steel.Resumo IPEN-doc 25362 Recycling process viability from zirconium alloys scraps of lathe melted in the vacuum arc remelting (VAR) furnace2018 - REIS, L.A.M.; ALENCAR, M.C.; GOMES, M.P.; PEREIRA, L.A.T.; BARBOSA, L.P.; MUCSI, C.S.; ROSSI, J.L.Pressurized water reactors (PWR) commonly use U235 enriched uranium dioxide pellets as a nuclear fuel, these are assembled and cladded in zirconium alloy (M5, Zirlo, Zircaloy) tubes and end caps. During the machining of these components, large amounts of turning lathe chips are generated which are contaminated with cutting fluid. Its storage presents safety and environmental risks due to its pyrophoric and reactive nature. Recycling industry has shown interest in its recycling due to its strategic importance of these scraps. This paper presents the steps on the recycling processes and the results for the search of an efficient way on the cleaning, quality control, manufacturing, and melting of electrodes for Vacuum Arc Remelting (VAR) furnace. The process starts with cutting oil washout and this step consists of a water dissolution followed by a degreasing process, the water rinse by continuous flow of water and finally drying in hot air. Process evaluation was first made by means the X-ray fluorescence tests in order to define the quality of the scraps that after washing were pressed in 20 mm diameter briquettes, melted and subjected to such analysis. The next step consists in the pressing with a die square section with 40 mm2 and 500 mm long, producing an electrode with 20% of the Zircaloy bulk density. The electrode was melted in a laboratory scale VAR furnace located at the CCTM – IPEN producing a 0.8 kg ingot. The microstructural and macro structural characterization is being done by analyzes performed in the optical microscope and scanning electron microscope (from portuguese Microscópio Eletronico de Varredura - MEV). Gas analyzes were carried out with the intention of evaluating possible gases resulting from the melting and evaluating their influence. X-ray diffraction analyzes were also performed to identify the phases present in the material after the melting process The authors conclude that the samples obtained from the fuel element industry can be melting in a VAR furnace reducing 40 times the storage volume, however, it is necessary to remelt the ingots by correcting their composition intended for reuse.Artigo IPEN-doc 24197 Recycling and melting process of the zirconium alloy chips2017 - REIS, LUIS A.M. dos; MUCSI, CRISTIANO S.; TAVARES, LUIZ A.P.; ALENCAR, MAICON C.; GOMES, MAURILIO P.; BARBOSA, LUZINETE P.; ROSSI, JESUALDO L.
