【 摘 要 】

BNFL, Inc. developed flowsheets for the River Protection Project Waste Treatment Plant that use caustic leaching and/or water washing to pretreat Envelope D Hanford sludge before vitrifying the high-level waste (HLW). The pretreatment steps would remove a number components to reduce the quantity of HLW generated. The flowsheets also use crossflow filtration to separate the leach and wash solutions from the solids between each step. The work reported here tested crossflow filtration and evaluated the washing and leaching characteristics of sludge from Tank AZ-102.
