DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/7025259· OSTI ID:7025259
Chemical Technology Division at the Savannah River Laboratory is investigating vitrification of alpha waste incinerator (AWI) ash. In laboratory tests, a glass containing up to 50 wt % ash can be made using Frit 131 at 1150{degree}C. Based on these tests, a melter the size of the CTD minimelter should be able to vitrify AWI ash as it is produced. 2 tabs.
