Determination of X/Qs for solid waste facility MSAR (open access)

Determination of X/Qs for solid waste facility MSAR

The purpose of this document is to provide a single referenceable document that provides the X/Qs for the solid waste facilities in the 200 Area, that is to provide the X/Qs for the Solid Waste Dispersal Facilities Master Safety Analysis Report (WHC-SD-WM-MSAR-001, REV. 0, 1996). The X/Qs will be used for the radiological dose estimates in the accident safety analyses. Thus, this document is also to provide the information necessary to perform bounding estimates of the radiological consequences for hypothetical accidents for various solid waste facilities. This document is to examine the variations in the plume dispersion factors associated with the various solid waste facilities. Specifically examined are X/Qs associated with different receptors located in different sectors and at different distances. Examination of one facility included a large area X/Q, while examination of another facility included an elevated release. Generally, the X/Qs are determined for ground releases with and without building wake. In addition, sensitivity of how plume characteristics were affected by using different meteorological data was examined. Each receptor described in this document was evaluated for both 99.5% and 50% meteorological data. Attributes such as plume meander, plume rise, settling and wash-out are not considered in this document.

Metallurgical evaluation of recycled stainless steel (open access)

Metallurgical evaluation of recycled stainless steel

Recycled Type 304 stainless steel from both Carolina Metals Inc. (CMI) and Manufacturing Science Corporation (MSC) met all the requirements of ASTM A-240 required by Procurement Specification G-SPP-K-00005 Rev. 4. Mechanical strength and corrosion resistance of the material are adequate for service as burial boxes, overpacks, and drums. Inclusion content of both manufacturer`s material was high, resulting in a corresponding decrease in the corrosion resistance. Therefore, an evaluation of the service conditions should be performed before this material is approved for other applications. These heats of stainless steel are not suitable for fabricating DWPF glass canisters because the inclusion and carbon contents are high. However, MSC has recently installed a vacuum induction furnace capable of producing L grade material with a low inclusion content. Material produced from this furnace should be suitable for canister material if appropriate care is taken during the melting/casting process.

Nuclear Weapons: Disposal Options for Surplus Weapons-Usable Plutonium (open access)

Nuclear Weapons: Disposal Options for Surplus Weapons-Usable Plutonium

With the end of the Cold War, the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaties (START), and other agreements, the United States and Russia have dramatically reduced their arsenals of nuclear weapons. As a result, each side has accumulated large stockpiles of plutonium, one of the principal materials used in nuclear warheads. The United States recently declared a holding of approximately 50 metric tons of weapons-usable plutonium excess to military needs. Even greater levels are believed to exist in Russia.

Attrition Resistant Iron-Based Fischer-Tropsch Catalysts. (open access)

Attrition Resistant Iron-Based Fischer-Tropsch Catalysts.

The Fischer-Tropsch (F-T) reaction provides a way of converting coal-derived synthesis gas (CO and H{sub 2}) to liquid fuels. Since the reaction is highly exothermic, one of the major problems in control of the reaction is heat removal. Recent work has shown that the use of slurry bubble column reactors (SBCRs) can largely solve this problem. Iron-based (Fe) catalysts are preferred catalysts for F-T when using low CO/H{sub 2} ratio synthesis gases derived from modern coal gasifiers. This is because in addition to reasonable F-T activity, the F-T catalysts also possess high water gas shift (WGS) activity. However, a serious problem with the use of Fe catalysts in a SBCR is their tendency to undergo attrition. This can cause fouling/plugging of downstream filters and equipment, making the separation of catalyst from the oil/wax product very difficult if not impossible, and results in a steady loss of catalyst from the reactor. The objectives of this research are to develop a better understanding of the parameters affecting attrition resistance of Fe F-T catalysts suitable for use in SBCRs and to incorporate this understanding into the design of novel Fe catalysts having superior attrition resistance. Catalyst preparations will be based on the use …
