Process Development for Destruction of Tetraphenylborate in SRS Tank 48H.

DE2004820398

Publication Date	2003
Personal Author	Lambert, D. P.; Peters, T. B.; Stallings, M. E.; Fink, S. D.
Page Count	34
Abstract	Savannah River Technology Center (SRTC) investigated several options to remediate the contents of Tank 48H. While AEA and Oak Ridge National Laboratory examined out of tank processes (ones that utilize conditions hostile to the tank infrastructure), SRTC investigated in-tank processes. Three options were examined: the Fenton reaction, Hydrolysis and Catalysis. Each option was investigated using a series of six reactions. These reactions were exploratory in nature; optimization is planned for a later date. Each experiment was conducted over a two-week period.
