Proceedings: 1988 EPRI radwaste workshop
The proceedings of the tenth EPRI radwaste workshop are presented. The workshop presentations followed by discussion sessions addressed the following pertinent issues: wet waste minimization; non-routine waste generation; dry active waste volume reduction and regulatory affairs. The focus of the workshop is to provide a forum for exchange of practical operational experiences as they relate to radwaste management. In the pursuit of this goal, the radwaste professionals in the nuclear industry are the individuals who bring forth their knowledge and expertise to make this workshop valuable. Presentations on non-routine waste management included: a summary of results from an EPRI project on the typical generation of abnormal wastes specific experience on the fuel pool cleanup of a hydraulic fluid spill at Millstone-2, decontamination of low pressure turbine disc blades, and processing of control rod blades for disposal. Three utilities presented lectures on their programs for DAW waste minimization. Wet waste lectures included presentations on: radioactive waste oil processing, resin cement solidification vs. liquid processing, and radwaste resin drying vs. dewatering. The final session was on regulatory affairs. This session serves as an opportunity to update plant staff on current and changing regulations as they pertain to LLW management.
