This book was released on 1994 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aboveground structures of the Old Hydrofracture Facility (OHF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are scheduled for decontamination and decommissioning (D & D). This Site Characterization Plan presents the strategy and techniques to be used to characterize the OHF D & D structures in support of D & D planning, design, and implementation. OHF is located approximately 1 mile southwest of the main ORNL complex. From 1964 to 1979, OHF was used in the development and full-scale application of hydrofracture operations in which 969,000 gal of liquid low-level waste (LLLW) was mixed with grout and then injected under high pressure into a low-permeability shale formation approximately 1/6 mile underground.

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, is operated for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) by Lockheed Martin Energy System (Energy Systems). ORNL has pioneered waste disposal technologies since World War II as part of its DOE mission. In the late 1950s, at the request of the National Academy of Sciences, efforts were made to develop a permanent disposal alternative to the surface and tanks at ORNL. One such technology, the hydrofracture process, involved inducing fractures in a geologic host formation (a low-permeability shale) at depths of up to 1100 ft and injecting a radioactive grout slurry containing low-level liquid or tank sludge waste, cement, and other additives at an injection pressure of 2000 to 8500 psi. The objective of the effort was to develop a grout dig could be injected as a slurry and would solidify after injection, thereby entombing the radioisotopes contained in the low-level liquid or tank sludge waste. Four sites at ORNL were used: two experimental (HF-1 and HF-2); one developmental, later converted to batch process[Old Hydrofracture Facility (BF-3)]; and one production facility[New Hydrofracture Facility (BF-4)]. This document provides the environmental, restoration program with information about the results of an evaluation of WAG 10 wells associated with the New Hydrofracture Facility at ORNL.

This book was released on 2001 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four hydrofracture sites at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) were used for development, demonstration, and disposal from 1959 to 1984. More than 10 million gal of waste grout mix was disposed of via hydrofracture. Various types of wells were installed to monitor the hydrofracture operations. The primary goal of this remedial investigation was to gather information about the wells in order to recommend the type and best method of final disposition for the wells. Evaluations were performed to determine the integrity of well castings, confirm construction details for each well, evaluate the extent of contamination, assist in planning for future activities, and determine the suitability of the wells for future temporary site monitoring.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A characterization study was conducted on the Old Hydrofracture Facility Pond, at Oak Ridge National Laboratory to provide information necessary for its proper disposition. This impoundment was constructed in 1963 to provide a containment basin for radioactive grout in the event of an emergency spill from the Hydrofracture Facility. The impoundment is rectangular and measures about 30 by 6 m at the bottom. Water in the impoundment overlies about 0.3 m of sediment waste. The pond sediment was sampled and analyzed to determine whether it would classify as a hazardous waste under regulatory definitions promulgated in accordance with the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA). Chemical analyses indicate that the sediment/waste does not contain hazardous chemical constituents above levels permitted by RCRA regulations. The sediment was found to contain an estimated radioactivity inventory of about 260 Ci, consisting primarily of /sup 137/Cs (60 Ci), /sup 90/Sr (190 Ci), /sup 60/Co (0.3 Ci), and /sup 238/U (0.3 Ci). The impoundment is excavated in clay soil and weathered sedimentary rock of the Conasauga Group. Four wells for monitoring the groundwater were constructed around the perimeter of the impoundment to depths ranging from 5.8 to 7.9 m. Sampling and analyses of the groundwater have been completed for the winter and spring seasons (1985) and will be continued for at least two more quarters to account for possible natural seasonal variation in groundwater quality. At the end of that time, a determination as to the effect of the impoundment on the groundwater quality will be made. Analyses from the first two quarters indicate that radioactivity (gross beta resulting from /sup 90/Sr and tritium) of the groundwater exceeds limits allowed by RCRA regulations. Low levels (0.0001 mg/L) of polychlorinated biphenyls were also detected in the groundwater.
