Book Selection of Liquid level Monitoring Method for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Inactive Liquid Low level Waste Tanks Remedial Investigation

Download or read book Selection of Liquid level Monitoring Method for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Inactive Liquid Low level Waste Tanks Remedial Investigation written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several of the inactive liquid low-level waste (LLLW) tanks at Oak Ridge National Laboratory contain residual wastes in liquid or solid (sludge) form or both. A plan of action has been developed to ensure that potential environmental impacts from the waste remaining in the inactive LLLW tank systems are minimized. This document describes the evaluation and selection of a methodology for monitoring the level of the liquid in inactive LLLW tanks. Criteria are established for comparison of existing level monitoring and leak testing methods; a preferred method is selected and a decision methodology for monitoring the level of the liquid in the tanks is presented for implementation. The methodology selected can be used to continuously monitor the tanks pending disposition of the wastes for treatment and disposal. Tanks that are empty, are scheduled to be emptied in the near future, or have liquid contents that are very low risk to the environment were not considered to be candidates for installing level monitoring. Tanks requiring new monitoring equipment were provided with conductivity probes; tanks with existing level monitoring instrumentation were not modified. The resulting data will be analyzed to determine inactive LLLW tank liquid level trends as a function of time.

Book Upgrade of Level Instruments in Inactive Liquid Low level Waste Tanks at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Oak Ridge Tennessee

Download or read book Upgrade of Level Instruments in Inactive Liquid Low level Waste Tanks at Oak Ridge National Laboratory Oak Ridge Tennessee written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objectives of this low-level liquid wastes study were to (1) determine the requirements for inventory monitoring of inactive (LLLW) tanks at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL), (2) evaluate the existing inventory of monitoring instruments and determine whether the current requirements for monitoring and leak detection are being met, and (3) recommend improvements or upgrades of the level instruments where needed. The instrumentation was evaluated on the basis of its accuracy, previous experience with the instrumentation, and any other available evaluation data. Instruments were evaluated for their effectiveness in monitoring the liquid inventory. Level instrumentation for 12 of the tanks was considered satisfactory for monitoring liquid inventory and potential leakage. A fist of options was provided for monitoring 12 tanks that are either currently empty or scheduled to be emptied during FY 1992 or 1993. Recommendations were also provided for the Group 5 tanks. Instrument upgrades were determined to be needed for the remaining eight tanks. The study examined the capabilities and limitations of the level-monitoring instruments in use at ORNL and other sites for appropriateness for the tanks requiring upgrades.

Book Leak Testing Plan for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Liquid Low Level Waste System active Tanks Volume 1 Regulatory Background and Plan Approach Volume 2 Methods Protocols and Schedules Volume 3 Evaluation of the ORNL LT 823DP Differential Pressure Leak Detection Method

Download or read book Leak Testing Plan for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Liquid Low Level Waste System active Tanks Volume 1 Regulatory Background and Plan Approach Volume 2 Methods Protocols and Schedules Volume 3 Evaluation of the ORNL LT 823DP Differential Pressure Leak Detection Method written by and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A leak testing plan for a portion of the Liquid Low-Level Waste (LLLW) system at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) is provided in the two volumes that form this document. This plan was prepared in response to the requirements of the Federal Facilities Agreement (FFA) between the US Department of Energy and two other agencies, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation (TDEC). The effective date of this agreement was 1 January 1992. The LLLW system is an interconnected complex of tanks and pipelines. The FFA distinguishes four different categories of tank and pipeline systems within this complex: new systems (Category A), doubly contained systems (Category B), singly contained systems (Category C), and inactive systems (Category D). The FFA's specific requirements for leak testing of the Category C systems is addressed in this plan. The plan also addresses leak testing of the Category B portions of the LLLW system. Leak testing of the Category B components was brought into the plan to supplement the secondary containment design demonstration effort that is under way for these components.

Book Leak Testing Plan for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Liquid Low level Waste Systems active Tanks

Download or read book Leak Testing Plan for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Liquid Low level Waste Systems active Tanks written by and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document, the Leak Testing Plan for the Oak Ridge National Laboratory Liquid Low-Level Waste System (Active Tanks), comprises three volumes. The first two volumes address the component-based leak testing plan for the liquid low-level waste system at Oak Ridge, while the third volume describes the performance evaluation of the leak detection method that will be used to test this system. Volume 1, describes that portion of the liquid low-level waste system at that will be tested; it provides the regulatory background, especially in terms of the requirements stipulated in the Federal Facilities Agreement, upon which the leak testing plan is based. Volume 1 also describes the foundation of the plan, portions of which were abstracted from existing federal documents that regulate the petroleum and hazardous chemicals industries. Finally, Volume 1 gives an overview the plan, describing the methods that will be used to test the four classes of components in the liquid low-level waste system. Volume 2 takes the general information on component classes and leak detection methods presented in Volume 1 and shows how it applies particularly to each of the individual components. A complete test plan for each of the components is presented, with emphasis placed on the methods designated for testing tanks. The protocol for testing tank systems is described, and general leak testing schedules are presented. Volume 3 describes the results of a performance evaluation completed for the leak testing method that will be used to test the small tanks at the facility (those less than 3,000 gal in capacity). Some of the details described in Volumes 1 and 2 are expected to change as additional information is obtained, as the viability of candidate release detection methods is proven in the Oak Ridge environment, and as the testing program evolves.
