We are conducting static dissolution tests with a glass made at the Savannah River Technology Center (SRTC) during a demonstration of the Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) process control for remote vitrification [1]. The glass was made with sludge from Tank 5 1, SRL 202 frit, and added soda. This glass is similar to waste glasses being made in the current DWPF campaign. Parallel tests are being conducted with a nonradioactive glass made at ANL having the same composition as the radioactive glass, except without the radionuclides. The radioactive and nonradioactive glasses are referred to as 5lR and 5lS, respectively. The results of these tests provide information pertinent to assessing the long-term corrosion behavior of DWPF glasses, comparing the corrosion behaviors of radioactive and nonradioactive glasses, and characterizing the disposition of radionuclides as the glass corrodes.
