Dear Mr. Crow:
D As we discussed, enclosed is additional information in support of our application for construction and operation of additional UF6 conversion capacity at the Hematite facility. Although the plant expansion has been delayed, we would like action to be taken on this portion. Please let me know if there are any questions. Very truly yours, COMBUSTI0fl EtlGIflEERIrlG, IrlC.

C-E Hematite Incinerator / Scrubber System The incinerator / scrubber system will be used to reduce the volume of Icw level uranium contaminated waste with a maximum enrichment of 4.1% U-235. The system consists of a gas-fired incinerator, an air-cooled heat exchanger, an ejector-venturi scrubber and a packed tower scrubber. The engineering flow diagram is shown in drawing D-5009-1020. The system is located in area 240-3. The equipment layout is shown in drawing D-5009-2015. Additional details of the major system components are shown in sketches 1 through 4. Low level wastes will be dispositioned for incineration after ganma counting. The wastes will be logged in on the Incinerator / Scrubber Continuous Invertory Sheet and then subdivided into incinerator charges in the filter cut up hood. Individual charges will be packaged in plastic or paper bags. Prior to introduction of t'e charge into the incinerator, the ejector-venturi scrubber recycle tank and the packed tower scrubber will be filled to the operating level with 0.I. water and recycle circulation in each system will be initiated. Cooling air for the heat exchanger will be started to cool the flue gas prior. to scrubbing. Uncontaminated cooling air will be discharged to the atmosphere f a warm weather and to the 240-3 area during cold weather. The incinerator will be preheated and the charge introduced into the primary combustion chanter. As the charge is incinerated, flue gases are cooled by the heat exchanger and then enter the ejector-venturi scrubber. Recycle water in this scrubber will remove the majority of the fly ash. Scrubbed gases are then passed through a packed tower crubber to remove any residual particulates before the effluent gases are discharge-into the 240-2 wet recovery ventilation stack after the HEPA filter. This sh:k is continuously sampled. An Incinerator / Scrubber Continuous Inventory Sheet will be maintained to record the total quantity of U-235 introduced into the system. Based upon the licensed safe mass for 4.1% U-235 of twenty-one (21) kgs of uranium. the incir"r ator run will be
- terminated when the inventory sheet shows that a total of 860 grams U-235 has been introduced into the system. Ash will be removed from the incinerator via :ne vacuum collection hood, analyzed for total uranium and dispositioned for burial or wet recovery. Both scrubbers will be drained and refilled with D.'I. water prior to the next run. There will be no liquid discharged to the environs from the system. lite used scrubber solution will be evaporated to recover the solids content. The heat exchanger, ejector-venturi separator box, and the packed tower scrubber will be inspected at least annually for accumulaticn of uranium compounds. Radiological safety activities associated with operation of the incinerator / scrubber system will be conducted as specified in the SNM-33 license. e
