Leach and soil column tests with stored redox sludge

Description: The leachabilities of /sup 90/Sr, /sup 239/Pu, and /sup 137/Cs from solids in Tank 108-SX were determined. Through 21 leach cycles covering a 3.5 day period, 63 volumes of leachate removed 1.4, 4.6, and 19.2% of the /sup 239/Pu, /sup 90/Sr, and /sup 137/Cs, respectively, from the 108-SX solids. With the exception of the first few leachates, the /sup 239/Pu concentrations in the leachates were less than maximum permissible concentration in drinking water for 168-h/wk exposure.
