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. A composite of the… more

SYNCHROTRON RADIATION AND RING FORMATION IN THE ELECTRON RING ACCELERATOR

Description: We discuss the possibility of using synchrotron radiation to form electron rings having a very high electric field to hold the ions inside the ring. The formulas describing bow the energy and the dimension of the ring change under the effect of synchrotron radiation are derived, and a numerical example is given.

Thulium-170 oxide heat source experimental and analytical radiation and shielding study

Description: Radiation dose rates from three thulium-170 oxide sources (20.7, 10.0 and 5.0 thermal watts) were measured through three thicknesses (1/4, 1/2 and 1 inch) of absorber by thermoluminescent dosimetry techniques. Absorber materials used were aluminium, stainless steel, lead, tungsten and depleted uranium. Resultant radiation doses were measured at 19 and 100 cm. Comparison of theoretical dose rates calculated by computer with measured dose rates validated the calculation technique for lead, tungst… more

Initial objectives of on-site empirical modelling of thermal plumes: A preliminary evaluation of a river-site and a lake-site thermal plume

Description: This report recommends developing a statistical model to characterize the three-dimensionall pattern of thermal plumes, It indicates the danger of drawing detailed conclusions on the basis of a small number of observations, and emphasizes the need for proper interpretation of empirical measurements, Two reports, on the discharges (1) from the Dresden Power Station into the Illinois River and (2) from Waukegan Station into-Lake Michigan are analyzed. In conclusion, a plan for interpretation of t… more
