Experience with waste vitrification systems at Battelle-Northwest

Description: Three types of melters; in-can, continuous metallic, and joule-heated ceramic are being developed on an engineering scale for conversion of simulated high-level radioactive waste to a glass form. Work with each of the three melters has progressed for over a year, and ton quantities of glass have been produced. The operation and performance of these systems are described. (auth)

Evaluation of Glass as a Matrix for Solidification of Savannah River Plant Waste

Description: Laboratory tests using actual sludges collected from Savannah River Plant (SRP) waste tanks were performed to evaluate glass as a waste solidification matrix. Sludge was collected from three SRP waste tanks, washed to remove soluble salts, and then ground to a fine powder. From 25 to 40 wt percent of these sludges was vitrified into a borosilicate glass by melting at 1150$sup 0$C. Substitution of 4 wt percent Li$sub 2$O for 4 wt percent Na$sub 2$O in the glass mix allowed higher loading of a hi… more
