Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/988345· OSTI ID:988345
The Gas Generation Test Program (GGTP), referred to as the Program, is designed to establish the concentration of flammable gases and/or gas generation rates in a test category waste container intended for shipment in the Transuranic Package Transporter-II (TRUPACT-II) or HalfPACT packagings. The phrase “gas generation testing” shall refer to any activity that establishes the flammable gas concentration or the flammable gas generation rate. This includes, but is not limited to, measurements performed directly on waste containers or during tests performed on waste containers. This Quality Assurance Program Plan (QAPP) documents the quality assurance (QA) and quality control (QC) requirements that apply to the Program. The requirements and technical bases for allowable flammable gas concentration and gas generation rates are described in the Contact-Handled Transuranic Waste Authorized Methods for Payload Control (CH-TRAMPAC) (Reference 1).
