“…The historic MSR program provides basic information on the design and performance of large molten salt mechanical filters. 64 Design of the filter, the filter holder, and the filter removal equipment for commercial-scale MSRs to allow for remote removal and replacement remains a significant challenge.…”

“…If a clog is encountered, the transfer tube and filter would likely have to be removed, exposing purified salt to atmosphere for extended periods, potentially negating the purification process. During the MSRE, two filter designs were evaluated: sintered and felt metal [24,25]. Sintered filters were typically of pure nickel construction, whereas felt metal filters were tested in 347 SS, Monel®, and Inconel® 600.…”

Li 2 BeF 4 , or flibe, is the primary candidate coolant for the fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature nuclear reactor (FHR). Kilogram quantities of pure flibe are required for repeatable corrosion tests of modern reactor materials. This paper details fluoride salt purification by the hydrofluorination–hydrogen process, which was used to regenerate 57.4 kg of flibe originating from the secondary loop of the molten salt reactor experiment (MSRE) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). Additionally, it expounds upon necessary handling precautions required to produce high-quality flibe and includes technological advancements which ease the purification and analysis process. Flibe batches produced at the University of Wisconsin are the largest since the MSRE program, enabling new corrosion, radiation, and thermal hydraulic testing around the United States.
