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

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 and modifications to the original cask design to insure its safe use. The design criteria was developed in January 1963 by an ad hoc committee comprised of representatives of the Chemical Processing Department, Hanford Laboratories, and Construction Engineering and Utilities of General Electric Company. The various tests, calculations and modifications of the cask were conducted by the Chemistry Department of Pacific Northwest Laboratory.

SELECTIVITY IN ZEOLITE OCCLUSION OF OLEFINS (open access)

SELECTIVITY IN ZEOLITE OCCLUSION OF OLEFINS

Selective occlusions of straight-chain paraffins in the presence of branched-chain hydrocarbons by naturally occurring zeolites of suitable dimension was reported as early as 1944 by Barrer and Ibbitson. More recently the capacity of synthetic zeolites or molecular sieves to absorb exclusively the straight-chain hydrocarbons from complex hydrocarbon mixtures has found extensive application in the petroleum industry. Under the conditions developed for most sieving operations any normal olefins present are occluded along with the normal paraffins. A supplemental separation technique must be employed to obtain n-paraffins free of olefins.
