Laboratory scale glass melter for testing defense waste glass
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6314958
A one-liter joule heated glass melter was built to test the applicability of continuous melting to simulated high-level calcined defense waste. Inconel 690 electrodes and K-3 refractory brick were chosen for their corrosion resistance to fluoride glass. The melter maintained a full melt at 1100/sup 0/C using 3 kW. After approximately 2 months of operation, the melter was dismantled for metallurgical examination. The Inconel 690 electrodes were heavily corroded. A second melter is now in operation to verify the findings of the first melter run.
