Series Description: This memorandum contains extractions from Hanford Progress Reports HW-19503 and HW-19739 concerning the removal of iodine from dissolver solutions. HW-19503 discusses iodine removal using sparging techniques and coprecipitation with cuprous iodide. Experimental results are presented with flow rates given in cubic centimeters per minute per milliliter and residual iodine expressed as a percent. HW-19739 reports the findings of research concerning the effect of cations, especially mercury, on the removal of iodine from dissolver solutions.
