Measurements of Sulfur Concentration with Lower Detection Limits in Simulated LAW Glasses

  • 1. Savannah River Site (SRS), Aiken, SC (United States). Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL)

Description

This report provides sulfur concentration measurements for several simulated low-activity waste glass compositions. The Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) selected and fabricated these glasses as part of a study on sulfur retention in glass. Methods were selected to achieve a lower detection limit for SO3 than previously reported. The measured SO3 concentrations of the glasses range from 0.036 to 0.130 wt %. These results will be used by PNNL in the development of improved property/composition models for LAW glass production at Hanford
