EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Early in 1993 Westinghouse Idaho Nuclear Company (WINCO) chartered a
Panel of Nuclear Separations Experts. The purpose of this Panel was to assist
WINCO scientists and engineers in selecting, evaluating, and ranking candidate
aqueous-based processes and technologies for potential use in partitioning
selected radionuclides from nitric acid solutions of retrieved Idaho Chemical
Processing Plant (ICPP) calcine. Radionuclides of interest are all
transuranium elements, 90Sr, 99Tc, 1291, and '37Cs. The six man Panel,
consisting of US Department of Energy contractor employees and outside
consultants, met with involved WINCO technical and management personnel for
4 days (February 16-19, 1993) on the campus of the Idaho State University in
Pocatello, Idaho. Principal topics addressed included:
" Available radionuclide removal technology
" Applicability of separations technology and processes to ICPP calcine
" Potential integrated radionuclide partitioning schemes
This report, prepared from contributions from all Panel members, presents a
comprehensive account of the proceedings and significant findings of the
February, 1993 meeting in Pocatello.KB-IDAHO.WPD/PGS/APPTECH
