Production Test IP-719: The effect of water plant variables on effluent activity. Final report

Description: One source of the parent materials which are converted into the radioisotopes in reactor effluent is the impurity content of Columbia River water. It has been demonstrated that as the efficiency of removal of the radioisotope parent materials increases, the amount of radioisotopes in the reactor effluent decreases. An example of this is the activity reduction which results from the use of high alum feed. In order to determine whether effluent activity would be influenced by the length of filter… more

Transfer measurement statistics derived from Purex Processing Measurements` Quality Control Program

Description: The Purex Processing Measurements Quality Control Program was designed to provide for orderly accumulation of measurements data suitable for statistical evaluation and to identify those elements of a measurement which, if improved, would result in significant reduction in overall measurement variation. This report gives an analysis of the audit data obtained at four transfer stations: L9 plutonium product loadout, K6 uranium product to storage, F15 salt waste to F16 and D5 dissolved feed to pro… more

Status of plant assistance irradiations as of April 9, 1965

Description: This report covers the activities with regard to on-site customer irradiations as of the above date. The report covers the status of material undergoing irradiation awaiting dispositions material shipped during the months and current status of all reactor test holes. The integrated exposure values are calculated in accordance with HW-62781, ``Status Report Equations.`` The integrated exposure reported is the average exposure received by the surrounding uranium columns. Conversion to exposure re… more

Horizontal control rod renovation program all production reactors

Description: The purpose of this document is to outline the proposed implementation of engineering program results to remedy the major horizontal control rod (HCR) problems at Hanford production reactors. K and C Reactors currently use a water cooled, round, aluminum control rod packed with boron carbide powder, B and D Reactors use a water cooled, flat, aluminum rod made up of sintered boron carbide-aluminum rings strung on three cooling tubes, all of which is encased in an outer aluminum shell. The nature… more
