The exposures of noncellulosic ultrafiltration membranes to a radioactive environment simulating up to 24 months of exposure to a ..beta.. dose of 10 ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/, a ..gamma.. dose of 10/sup -5/ ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/, and an ..cap alpha.. dose of 4.9 x 10/sup -3/ ..mu..Ci/cm/sup 3/ were completed. Exposure to ..beta.. and ..gamma.. radiation did not affect membrane performance. After a simulated six months of exposure to ..cap alpha.. radiation some degradation of membrane performance occurred. Several experiments were made on a laboratory-scale reverse-osmosis unit using the product from ultrafiltration as feed. Rejection of activity ranged from 88 to 99 percent. The ''continuous'' ultrafiltration pilot run was completed. Approximately 40,000 gal were processed in over 70 hr of operating time without shutdown for cleaning. Flux and rejection were maintained relatively steady over this period. Rejection of gross alpha ranged from 80 to 99.5 percent depending on the ionic content of the waste stream. Flux rates ranged from 5 to 8 liters/min over this period. The engineering column tests were continued using uranium-233 with product from the ultrafiltration pilot plant. Flow rates and pH were varied in order to determine optimum operating conditions.

A weekly publication, the Texas Register serves as the journal of state agency rulemaking for Texas. Information published in the Texas Register includes proposed, adopted, withdrawn and emergency rule actions, notices of state agency review of agency rules, governor's appointments, attorney general opinions, and miscellaneous documents such as requests for proposals. After adoption, these rulemaking actions are codified into the Texas Administrative Code.
