The objectives of the test included the effects of in situ vitrification on containerized sludge contained in three cans of varying content placed in a vertical array with soil placed between each can. From this arrangement, the test results obtained the following data applicable to Idaho National Engineering Laboratory Large Field Testing: canister burst pressure and temperature, canister depressurization rate, melt encapsulation rate of the canister and the hood area plenum temperatures, pressures, compositional analyses, and flows as affected by gas releases. 10 figs., 1 tab.
