Devitrification behavior of SRL defense waste glass
Description
Simulated SRL waste was prepared with compositions varying in iron and aluminum content. Two batches with similar composition were produced with different amounts of reducing agent added. Samples were isothermally heat treated and used to derive time-temperature-transformation diagrams. Supplementary samples were cooled in a manner programmed to simulate the cooling curves of production canisters. Less than 10% total devitrification occurs during normal processing. However, when waste glass 165 was purposely devitrified, up to 30 volume percent total spinel and acmite formed. Formation of these species had minor effect on leachability in MCC-1 and accelerated leach tests. 20 references, 4 figures, 2 tables
