Abstract:PURIFICATION OF INDONESIAN NATURAL GRAPHITE AS CANDIDATE FOR NUCLEAR FUEL MATRIX BY ACID LEACHING METHOD: CHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION. Graphite matrix in Pebble Bed Reactor (PBR) – High Temperature Gas Cooled Reactor (HTGR) has an important role as heat transfer medium, neutron moderator and structural material to protect fuel. Thus, graphite matrix must fulfill chemical and physical characteristics for PBR-HTGR fuel. Indonesia has graphite sources in several regions that can potentially be purified. This resear… Show more
“…Important aspects should also be taken into consideration while graphite is being used in batteries: its purification to a battery-grade anode requires high quantities of chemicals such as sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen fluoride (HF), which pose risks to both human health and the environment. 23,24 It is worth mentioning that Gr recycling would be a sustainable approach to alleviate the issues associated with its mining. However, recycling graphite is very challenging due to the complexity and diversity of the battery chemistries, structures, and components.…”
