The Hanford K Basin Closure Project involves the retrieval, transfer and processing of slurries and solutions containing partially corroded spent nuclear fuel from the K Basin spent fuel pools and dissolved contaminants such as cesium. The spent fuel is primarily metallic fuel from the operation of the Hanford reactors. The Sludge Treatment Project (STP) is being designed to treat and package this material in preparation for ultimate disposal.
