242-A evaporator cooling water stream-specific report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6522371

The proposed wastestream designation for the 242-A Evaporator Cooling Water wastestream is that this stream is not a dangerous waste, pursuant to the Washington (State) Administrative Code (WAC) 173-303, Dangerous Waste Regulations. A combination of process knowledge and sampling data was used to determine if the effluent contains a listed dangerous waste (WAC 173-303-080). Sampling data alone are compared to the dangerous waste criteria (WAC 173-303-100) and dangerous waste characteristics (WAC 173-303-090). Process knowledge was based on knowledge of the process configuration and operations in the tank farm facilities (including the chemicals that are utilized). Sample data were based on five random samples taken at a sample point downstream of the major process contributors during the August 29, 1985, to January 12, 1987, timeframe. 19 refs., 7 figs., 8 tabs.
