WSEP 30-ton liquid transfer cask: Design criteria and performance tests

Description: Shipment of radioactive wastes in shielded transfer casks is a continuing practice between the 300 Area and the 200 Areas. However, the Waste Solidification Engineering Prototypes (WSEP) located in 324 Building, 300 Area, require the transfer of significant quantities of radioactive wastes. Two new 30-ton casks are being placed in service to accommodate the increased number of shipments. The purpose of this report is to document the design criteria, tests and calculations performed on the casks… more
