A model as been developed by Westinghouse Hanford Company (Program Release) to estimate the quantity of particulate aerosols that would become airborne during the pouring of grout into a storage vault. Information and equations derived from spill experiments were used in the model to determine release fractions. The letter report discusses the similarities and differences between the spill experiments and the grout vault operations, the applicability of the spill equations, and the use of particle depletion models to account for the residence time of particles in the grout vault.
