Effects of oxygen cover gas and NaOH dilution on gas generation in tank 241-SY-101 waste (open access)

Effects of oxygen cover gas and NaOH dilution on gas generation in tank 241-SY-101 waste

Laboratory studies are reported of gas generation in heated waste from tank 241-SY-101. The rates of gas generation and the compositions of product gas were measured. Three types of tests are compared. The tests use: undiluted waste, waste diluted by a 54% addition of 2.5 M NaOH, and undiluted waste with a reactive cover gas of 30% Oxygen in He. The gas generation rate is reduced by dilution, increased by higher temperatures (which determines activation energies), and increased by reactions of Oxygen (these primarily produce H{sub 2}). Gases are generated as reduction products oxidation of organic carbon species by nitrite and oxygen.

Hazard categorization -- interpretation of DOE guidance DOE-STD-1027-92 (open access)

Hazard categorization -- interpretation of DOE guidance DOE-STD-1027-92

The methodology used in the production of the Hazard Category 2 TQs is verified and presented in the above calculations (Section 3.0). The analysis is done as consistently to that prescribed in DOE-STD-1027-92 as is possible. Determining the TQ limits with the standard`s variables consistently produced the listed Hazard Category 2 TQs for the six major isotopes present in the CWC waste (100% of the isotopes attempted in their analysis) and verifies their approach without changing release fractions or receptor locations. An example of a modification of the TQ for a change in the release fraction is provided in the standard Attachment 1, pages A-6 through A-10. However, the change in TQs receptor location is another issue. Modification to the TQ because of facility location is allowed in the standard, but there is no definite approach described in the standard. This change is best represented through the change in the XIQ value. This paper provides a defensible interface with DOE guidance DOE-STD-1027-92, and an established proposed methodology for standardizing changes in the TQs because of release fractions or receptor locations. By using this information as the basis for the construction of the TQs as presented in DOE-STD-1027-92, it is determined …

Engineering study of the potential uses of salts from selective crystallization of Hanford tank wastes (open access)

Engineering study of the potential uses of salts from selective crystallization of Hanford tank wastes

The Clean Salt Process (CSP) is the fractional crystallization of nitrate salts from tank waste stored on the Hanford Site. This study reviews disposition options for a CSP product made from Hanford Site tank waste. These options range from public release to onsite low-level waste disposal to no action. Process, production, safety, environment, cost, schedule, and the amount of CSP material which may be used are factors considered in each option. The preferred alternative is offsite release of clean salt. Savings all be generated by excluding the material from low-level waste stabilization. Income would be received from sales of salt products. Savings and income from this alternative amount to $1,027 million, excluding the cost of CSP operations. Unless public sale of CSP products is approved, the material should be calcined. The carbonate form of the CSP could then be used as ballast in tank closure and stabilization efforts. Not including the cost of CSP operations, savings of $632 million would be realized. These savings would result from excluding the material from low-level waste stabilization and reducing purchases of chemicals for caustic recycle and stabilization and closure. Dose considerations for either alternative are favorable. No other cost-effective alternatives that were considered …

Gun Ban for Persons Convicted of Misdemeanor Crime of Domestic Violence: Ex Post Facto Clause and Other Constitutional Issues

This report examines two new federal firearms offenses created by amendment of 18 U.S.C. 922(d) and (g). Section 922(d)(9) which makes it unlawful for any person knowingly to sell or otherwise dispose of any firearm or ammunition to a person convicted of a misdemeanor crime of domestic violence. The new law gives the domestic violence misdemeanant two new statutory defenses to the validity of the predicate conviction.

PAMS photo image retrieval prototype alternatives analysis (open access)

PAMS photo image retrieval prototype alternatives analysis

Photography and Audiovisual Services uses a system called the Photography and Audiovisual Management System (PAMS) to perform order entry and billing services. The PAMS system utilizes Revelation Technologies database management software, AREV. Work is currently in progress to link the PAMS AREV system to a Microsoft SQL Server database engine to provide photograph indexing and query capabilities. The link between AREV and SQLServer will use a technique called ``bonding.`` This photograph imaging subsystem will interface to the PAMS system and handle the image capture and retrieval portions of the project. The intent of this alternatives analysis is to examine the software and hardware alternatives available to meet the requirements for this project, and identify a cost-effective solution.

PAMS photo image retrieval prototype system requirements specification

This project is part of the Photo Audiovisual Management System (PAMS). The project was initially identified in 1989 and has since been has been worked on under various names such as Image Retrieval and Viewing System, Photo Image Retrieval Subsystem and Image Processing and Compression System. This document builds upon the information collected and the analysis performed in the earlier phases of this project. The PAMS Photo Imaging subsystem will provide the means of capturing low resolution digital images from Photography`s negative files and associating the digital images with a record in the PAMS photo database. The digital images and key photo identification information will be accessible to HAN users to assist in locating and identifying specific photographs. After identifying desired photographs, users may request photo prints or high resolution digital images directly from Photography. The digital images captured by this project are for identification purposes only and are not intended to be of sufficient quality for subsequent use.

Nucleon decay in GUT and nonGUT SUSY models (open access)

Nucleon decay in GUT and nonGUT SUSY models

I first emphasize the importance of searching for nucleon decay in the context of supersymmetric models. The status of minimal SUSY SU(5) model is reviewed, which can be definitively ruled out by a combination of superKamiokande andLEP-2 experiments. Non-minimal models may provide some suppression in the nucleon decay rates, but there is still a good chance for superKamiokande. I point out that the operators suppressed even by the Planck-scale are too large. We need a suppression mechanism for the operators at the level of 10-7, and the mechanism, I argue, may well be a flavor symmetry. A particular example predicts p --> K0e+ to be the dominant mode which does not arise in GUT models.
