Durability testing of fluidized bed steam reformer (fbsr) waste forms
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the durability of the FBSR waste form products with the vitreous LAW waste forms, specifically the Hanford Envelope A low-activity waste (LAW) simulant and an acidic INL simulant commonly referred to as sodium bearing waste (SBW).
Journal ArticleDOI
Resorcinol - formaldehyde adsorption of cesium from Hanford waste solutions Part I. Batch equilibrium study
TL;DR: In this article, a batch equilibrium measurement was conducted at 25±2 °C with a granular resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) resin to determine the distribution coefficients (Kd) for cesium.
Book ChapterDOI
Cerium as a Surrogate in the Plutonium Immobilized Form
James C. Marra,Alex D. Cozzi,R. A. Pierce,J. M. Pareizs,Arthur R. Jurgensen,David M. Missimer +5 more
TL;DR: The Department of Energy (DOE) plans to immobilize a portion of the excess weapons useable plutonium in a ceramic form for final geologic disposal as discussed by the authors, which is a titanate-based ceramic consisting primarily of a pyrochlore phase with lesser amounts of brannerite, rutile, zirconolite, vitreous phases and/or other minor phases depending on the impurities present in the feed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removal of cesium from alkaline waste solution: Part I – Batch ion exchange study
TL;DR: In this paper, column ion exchange tests have been used to demonstrate the ability of SuperLig® 644 resin to remove 1 3 7 Cs from highly alkaline radioactive waste.
