Title: Aluminum hydroxide coating thickness measurements and brushing tests on K West Basin fuel elements

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10148407· OSTI ID:10148407

Aluminum hydroxide coating thicknesses were measured on fuel elements stored in aluminum canisters in K West Basin using specially developed eddy current probes . The results were used to estimate coating inventories for MCO fuel,loading. Brushing tests successfully demonstrated the ability to remove the coating if deemed necessary prior to MCO loading.
