Task Technical and Quality Assurance Plan for Testing Methods to Reduce 235 Uranium Enrichment in Tank 43H Supernatant Liquid

Creators

Description

In July of 1997, the 2H-Evaporator was shutdown due to the inability to lift material from the vessel. Inspections of the gravity drain line (GDL) showed a scale deposit coating the inside of the line. A Sample of the material was obtained and analyses performed. Plans are to chemically clean the evaporator pot by dissolving the solids in a 1.5M nitric acid solution containing depleted uranium
