Description

Strip Effluent (SE) Hold Tank (SEHT) and Decontaminated Salt Solution (DSS) Hold Tank (DSSHT) samples from several "microbatches" of the Integrated Salt Disposition Project (ISDP) "macrobatch" Salt Batch 10 have been analyzed for 238Pu, 90Sr, 137Cs, cations (via Inductively Coupled Plasma Emission Spectroscopy - ICPES), and in some cases anions (via Ion Chromatography Anions - IC-A). The analytical results from the current microbatch samples are similar to those from previous macrobatches. In the Modular Caustic-Side Solvent Extraction Unit (MCU), the Cs removal continues to exceed process requirements. The bulk chemistry of the DSSHT and SEHT samples do not show any signs of unusual behavior except for slightly elevated amounts of sodium in the SE samples. This summary represents the final Salt Batch processed through MCU prior to commencement of process and transfer line tie-ins to support the startup of the Salt Waste Processing Facility (SWPF).
