To investigate the adsorption characteristics of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate on scheelite surface, the water bath shaking method was used to study the adsorption capacity, kinetics, and thermodynamics. The effects of pH, reagent concentration, temperature on the adsorption characteristics were explored using kinetic and thermodynamic equation models. The results show that under pH=10, the adsorption capacity of sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate on scheelite surface is the largest, while under pH=7, the adsorption rate is the fastest, which conforms to the pseudo-second-order kinetic equation. Within a certain range, the adsorption capacity of dodecyl benzene sulfonate on scheelite surface is positively correlated with the reagent concentration and temperature. The adsorption process conforms to the Freundlich equation, which is an endothermic reaction of heterogeneous multilayer adsorption.

In order to solve the problems of microwave plasma decomposition of ¹³CF₄, such as complex operation process, harsh decomposition conditions and easy corrosion of reaction tubes,the thermal catalytic decomposition of ¹³CF₄ to produce ¹³CO₂ was studied. Under the condition of anhydrous and high temperature, ¹³CF₄ was decomposed into ¹³CO₂ by gas-solid reaction between ¹³CF₄ and solid defluorination agent, using γ-Al₂O₃ as solid defluorination agent, meanwhile, the metal oxide in the defluorination agent is converted into metal fluoride. The results show that when the flow rate of reaction gas is 120 mL/min, the loading amount of catalyst is more than 60 g, the content of O₂ in feed gas mixture is more than 50%, and the temperature of high temperature tubular furnace is 900℃, the conversion of γ-Al₂${{\mathrm{O}}_{3}}_{}$ catalyst to ¹³CF₄ gas is over 90%, which has good catalytic decomposition performance and can realize continuous catalysis and decomposition. The catalytic decomposition process has the advantages of simple process, convenient operation and very high carbon yield, and can be used in industrial production.

The Husab Uranium Mine has complex ore body and issues of ore body displacement during production blasting, which leads to severe ore-waste mixing. Additionally, there is a lack of measurement methods for the truck after loading. To detect the grades after loading and distinguish the ore from the waste, further to control and measure the ore dilution and ore loss, Husab Mine designed and developed the radiomatric truck scanner. By determining the exact time points of entry and exit through infrared beam detection, and identifing the truck identities using radio frequency identification technology, the dynamic scanning is achieved. By using three sets of gamma spectrometers, the error caused by irregular ore loading and deviations in truck driving paths, is minimized. By integrating the on-site data collection system, the server-based data management system, and the client data management system, the management of multiple truck scanner become available. By connecting the truck scanner to the dispatch system, the scanner data can be used to guide trucks on where to unload at the stockpile. To assess the impact of the truck scanner on uranium mine production, both the shovel boundary model data and truck scanner data were compared against the grade control model data, which serve as a benchmark, to calculate the dilution rate and ore loss rate under each scenario, the dilution rate and ore loss rate dropped from 8.14% and 12.62% to -3.36% and 4.85%. The summary and Analysis of two months' production data revealed that, the scanner can effectively distinguish the ore with different grades and seperate the ore and waste. It’s found out that the ore transported reduced 8.4%, the recovered metal increased 4.7%, and the average grade on the stockpile increased 19.8%. These findings demonstrate the significant and positive impact of the truck scanner on production at Husab Uranium Mine.

The electric control valve in the ⁷⁶Ge isotope production process is controlled by the PID module of the DCS (Distributed Control System) to regulate the internal pressure of the cascade pipeline. However, when the pressure of the process system fluctuates greatly, the existing control method of electric valve can not achieve the optimal control effect, which leads to the controlled process pressure exceeding the operating safety limit and has a serious adverse impact on the safe and stable operation of the process system. Aiming at the problem of weak control performance of electric valve under abnormal pressure, this paper put forward a control scheme to optimize DCS control configuration program of electric valve. Actual operation shows that the optimized control program avoids significant fluctuations in process pressure under abnormal conditions, effectively ensuring the safe and stable operation of the ⁷⁶Ge isotope production line.

This paper focuses on the abnormal fluctuation of yield during the electron beam welding process of fuel rods. Considering that the main defects leading to the rejection of fuel rods are surface scratches and out-of-tolerance straightness, through analysis and research, it is clarified that the direct causes of the abnormal yield of fuel rods are the excessively large aperture of the welding tooling baffle, the excessive use of the welding top, and the design of the top bearing. By taking measures such as reducing the aperture of the baffle, determining the reasonable number of uses for the welding top, and designing the top bearing, defects can be controlled in a timely manner, the yield can be improved, the manufacturing cost can be further reduced, and a foundation can be laid for the subsequent exploration of fuel rod manufacturing processes.

In order to promote the informationization construction of mining enterprises and enhance the safety informationization management capabilities, we explore the application of Python programming language and PyCharm editor to establish a basic database and big data analysis model for safety inspections in a certain mining enterprise. We construct a multi-dimensional analysis and evaluation system for historical safety inspection issues, new safety inspection issues, and other data, including time, space, problem categories, and causes. We explore the laws and development trends of intrinsic safety and safety inspection problems, and take targeted solutions accurately. The establishment of databases and analysis model can also be used for comprehensive evaluation of security inspection issues, visually displaying important information such as the time, place, category, and cause of the problem, providing objective data support for timely detection of repetitive problems and hidden danger investigation, avoiding the long-term existence of security problems that cannot be eradicated, and effectively reducing security risks. At present, the security big data model is mainly applied in security inspection work, and there is still room for exploration in the fields of security management system construction, "dual control" system operation, security education and training, accident prediction and warning in the future.
