DWPF Batch 1, Waste glass investigations

R.F. Schumacher

Open full text 2 citations

Abstract

The initial feed to the Defense Waste Processing Facility at the Savannah River Site is currently being prepared and characterized. In the DWPF, this material will be mixed with glass frit and vitrified. The goal of this study is to investigate the effects of variability in the feed mixture on important glass properties. The results will be used to validate the composition -- property models which will be used for process control.
