Self-heating of Pu-238 anion exchange column

Description: Heat and mass transfer calculations were performed to determine the effect of increases in the H-canyon Frames Waste Recovery (FWR) column loading on column temperatures during flow interruptions. The heat transfer calculations are based on a previous analysis of the H Frames columns, and the mass transfer calculations use data from two recent laboratory elutions. The current Technical Standard (TS) limits the total amount of Pu-238 on the column to 490 g. To meet production goals for NASA`s Ca… more

DOE IGCC Project. Fourth quarterly report, [October 1, 1993--December 31, 1993]

Description: We have previously reported a decision to move the simple cycle commercial operation to a date coincident with the July 1, 1996 Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle (IGCC) commercial operation date. This necessitated a major rescheduling of the engineering and construction efforts to ensure a totally coordinated plan. This rescheduling was completed in mid October 1994 and resulted in an integrated engineering and construction schedule. The major effort in the fourth quarter of 1994 centered … more

Preliminary hazards analysis of thermal scrap stabilization system. Revision 1

Description: This preliminary analysis examined the HA-21I glovebox and its supporting systems for potential process hazards. Upon further analysis, the thermal stabilization system has been installed in gloveboxes HC-21A and HC-21C. The use of HC-21C and HC-21A simplified the initial safety analysis. In addition, these gloveboxes were cleaner and required less modification for operation than glovebox HA-21I. While this document refers to glovebox HA-21I for the hazards analysis performed, glovebox HC-21C i… more

Development of advanced, dry, SO{sub x}/NO{sub x} emission control technologies for high-sulfur coal. Final report, April 1, 1993--December 31, 1994

Description: Dry Scrubbing is a common commercial process that has been limited to low- and medium-sulfur coal applications because high-sulfur coal requires more reagent than can be efficiently injected into the process. Babcock & Wilcox has made several advances that extend dry scrubbing technologies to higher sulfur coals by allowing deposit-free operation at low scrubber exit temperatures. This not only increases the amount of reagent that can be injected into the scrubber, but also increases SO{sub 2} … more

Seismic qualification of a switch box

Description: This supporting document details the results of a seismic analysis on a switch box assembly. The switch box is mounted to a Unistrut frame and is attached to the concrete floor in the 225B Building with Hilti Kwik bolts. The assembly was found to meet safety class 3 requirement. Although all components analyzed were found to be structurally adequate, some changes are recommended. To comply with SDC 4.2 specification, the Hilti Kwik bolts should be: placed at least 8 1/4 inches from the edge of … more

Packaging design criteria, transfer and disposal of 102-AP mixer pump

Description: A mixer pump installed in storage tank 241-AP-102 (102-AP) has failed. This pump is referred to as the 102-AP mixer pump (APMP). The APMP will be removed from 102-AP 1 and a new pump will be installed. The main purpose of the Packaging Design Criteria (PDC) is to establish criteria necessary to design and fabricate a shipping container for the transfer and storage of the APMP from 102-AP. The PDC will be used as a guide to develop a Safety Evaluation for Packaging (SEP).

Final report on Thermally Modified Sand demonstration project

Description: The use of salt and salt/sand mixtures on icy roadway surfaces has dramatically increased during the past 30 years. Despite extensive documentation on salt related damage to the roadway improvements, vehicles and the environment, road maintenance departments have continued to rely on this practice. Road maintenance departments in northern climate areas have long recognized the safety benefits for public mobility on icy roadways from the use of sand. As an abrasive material, the sand improves th… more
