Material balance flowsheets are presented for the dissolution of UO/sub 2/, UO/sub 2/-ThO/sub 2/, and U-Mo fuels clad in stainless steel or zirconium by the Sulfex, Darex, and Zinflex process. The mechanics of the three processes are discussed. Basic assumptions upon which the flowsheets are based are contained. (auth
