Results from Sample HTF-E-133 pulled from Tank 40H after the fifth wash (post-decant) indicate that the supernate sodium concentration is 0.53 M versus a goal concentration of 0.50 M. This sodium concentration is also below the 0.56 M Na+ supernate concentration obtained in the Savannah River Technology Center's (SRTC) wash of the Sludge Batch 2 qualification sample. This assures that the product slurry is within the bounds SRTC used in qualifying Sludge Batch 2. Weight percent solids and density results are also presented herein. This will allow verification that the solids fraction is within the acceptable range for Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) productivity and for transfer of the slurry to the DWPF.
