Download or read book Decontamination Project for Cell G of the Metal Recovery Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Oak Ridge Tennessee written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of the decontamination effort in Cell G at the Metal Recovery Facility, Building 3505, located at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, was two-fold: to determine the effectiveness of the dry decontamination technique employed and to provide data required to assess whether additional decontamination using this method would be beneficial in the eventual decommissioning of the facility. Allied Technology Group (ATG) was contracted to remove a portion of the concrete surface in Cell G by a technique known as scabbling. Some metallic cell components were also scabbled to remove paint and other surface debris. Generally, the scabbling operation was a success. Levels of contamination were greatly reduced. The depth of contaminant penetration into the concrete surfaces of certain areas was much greater than had been anticipated, necessitating the removal of additional concrete and extending ATG's period of performance. Scabbling and other related techniques will be extremely useful in the decontamination and decommissioning of other nuclear facilities with similar radiological profiles.

Book excerpt: This interim report describes a DOE project currently underway to establish what is known about decontamination of buildings and people and the procedures and protocols used to determine when and how people or buildings are considered ''clean'' following decontamination. To fulfill this objective, the study systematically examined reported decontamination experiences to determine what procedures and protocols are currently employed for decontamination, the timeframe involved to initiate and complete the decontamination process, how the contaminants were identified, the problems encountered during the decontamination process, how response efforts of agencies were coordinated, and the perceived social psychological effects on people who were decontaminated or who participated in the decontamination process. Findings and recommendations from the study are intended to aid decision-making and to improve the basis for determining appropriate decontamination protocols for recovery planners and policy makers for responding to chemical and biological events.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Curium Source Fabrication Facility (CSFF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) was decontaminated to acceptable contamination levels for maintenance activities, using standard decontamination techniques. Solid and liquid waste volumes were controlled to minimize discharges to the ORNL waste systems. This program required two years of decontamination effort at a total cost of approximately $700K. 5 references, 7 figures, 2 tables.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leland Johnson and Daniel Schaffer begin their narrative in 1943 when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers built ORNL in the hills of East Tennessee to produce plutonium for atomic weapons. After World War II, ORNL became a center for fundamental scientific research under the successive management of the Atomic Energy Commission, the Energy Research and Development Administration, and the Department of Energy.

This book was released on 1992 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) Decontamination and Decommissioning (D & D) Program is part of the Department of Energy (DOE) Environmental Restoration D & D Program and has continued to provide surveillance and maintenance (S & M) support for 34 surplus facilities. The objectives are (1) to ensure adequate containment of residual radioactive materials remaining in the facilities, (2) to provide safety and security controls to minimize the potential hazards to on-site personnel and to the general public, and (3) to manage the facilities in the most cost-effective manner while awaiting decommissioning. This support has included work in three principal areas: (1) S & M planning, (2) routine S & M, and (3) special projects designed to correct serious facility deficiencies beyond the scope of routine maintenance.
Download or read book Decontamination of Low level Liquid Waste at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Using a Scavenging precipitation Ion Exchange Process written by and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For five and one-half years, liquid wastes at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) which contained low levels of beta and gamma activity have been decontaminated by a scavenging-precipitation, ion exchange process (SP-IX). Some of the activity is precipitated with caustic, and the remainder is sorbed on a cation resin, Duolite CS-100. Cesium-137 activity is routinely reduced to 30 Bq/L, and 9°Sr to 0.5 Bq/L. Operation of the plant in 1977 cost $4.64 per thousand gallons (approx. 0.1 cent/L). The routine flow rate is 375 L/min.
