| Abstract Scope |
Moisture in molten chloride salts is known to hydrolyze and form corrosive impurities such as hydroxide ions in the melt. Detection and removal of these impurities is imperative to decreasing the corrosiveness of the salt and increasing the reliability of molten salt systems. Experiments demonstrating two methods of salt purification with in-situ monitoring using optical spectroscopy will be presented.
