Evaluation of alternatives for defense waste management at the Savannah River Plant: Final report for FY-84, February 1984 to September 1984

Technical Report · Sat Sep 01 00:00:00 EDT 1984

OSTI ID:6104652

This report is an independent evaluation of the Savannah River program for the management of high-level radioactive defense waste. Our evaluations focus on the design, construction, and operation of the Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) for sludge processing and on methods for dealing with the disposal of supernates. The scope includes an evaluation of the Hanford Waste Vitrification Plant program. 10 refs., 4 tabs.
