Abstract
Computational studies of experimentally validated method of solid-phase oxidation of alkali metals in application to the decommissioning of the BR-10 research reactor are presented. Computational-theoretical studies were performed for the method where alkali metals are mixed with oxidizers (granulated slag from copper smelting operations) by pumping alkali metal along a down pipe beneath a layer slag into the reaction chamber.
