【 摘 要 】

Previous work at the Savannah River Site identified five microbatches of waste projected to fail to meet removal requirements for total alpha after treatment with monosodium titanate (MST) at the baseline conditions proposed for the Salt Waste Processing Facility (SWPF). This document describes an experimental demonstration that examined removal of strontium and alpha emitting radionuclides from a composite of several tanks present in the most limiting macrobatches. The work investigated the amount of MST needed to treat this ''bounding alpha'' macrobatch composite such that the separated liquid can meet the Salt Waste Processing Facility limits.
