SEQUOYAH NUCLEAR PLANT RADI0 ACTIVE W ASTE VOLUME REDUCTION AND SOLIDIFICATION SYSTEM (VR/SS) e

1.0 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Purnose This document is provided as. supporting information for a pro-posed amendment to the facility operating license for Sequoyah Nuclear Plant (SQNP). The proposed amendment is to allow opera-tion of onsite volume reduction equipment to process low-level radioactive waste (LLRW) at SQNP. This document is intended to be fully adequate for the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) staff to make a decision regarding the a c c e pt a b il i ty of the action and authorize the proposed amendment.

1.2 R_ackaround The Tennessee Valley Auth or i ty (TVA) owns SQNP located in Hamilton County, Tennessee. Operation of this plant w ill result in planned and controlled generation of LLRW. This waste primarily consists of ion exchange resins, evaporator concentrates, spent regenerates, contaminated oils, and dry

. active waste as described in Table 1.2-1. For the reasons outlined in Section 1. 3 , 'Need,' TVA is seeking authorization by way of amendment to our facility operating license to operate a i v ol um e reduction system (VR) including a permanently installed incinerator and calciner to process LLRW at SQNP. TVA has completed a preliminary safety review and has determined that NRC approval is required for operation of the volume reduction system j addition.

i The VR i s designed to process and reduce the volume of radioactive materials. Dry active waste and contaminated o il s will be incine ra ted whil e evaporator concentrates and spent regenerates will be calcined. Spent re sins will not be incinerated, but w il l be either dewatered or solidified and packaged in accordance with burial site requirements. The Solidification System (SS) will produce a solidified package that is acceptable for storage onsite or disposal offsite.

1. 3 Need Since the startup of SQNP, TV A h a s packaged and shipped LLRW generated at SQNP to commercial radioactive waste disposal sites. Recently, however, significant restrictions have been placed on the volume (ft8) of packaged LLRW that Chem-Nuclear Systems, Inc., (CNSI) will accept for disposal.

J i 1-1 m ._ , , _ _ _ . , . . _ _ - . _ _ . - _ _ _ _ _ - _ _ _ , _ _ - - - - . -- ~ _.

SQNP TV A h a s buil t and received a license to operate an onsite low-level radioactive waste storage facility that w il l reduce our immediate dependence upon the availability of commercial burial facilities.

TV A b e l i e v e s that it is a prudent policy to reduce the volume of LLRW. Therefore, we are requesting approval for the operation of the v ol um e reduction sy st em a ddi ti on. We believe this approach is consistent with the NRC ' Policy Statement on Low-Level Waste V ol um e Reduction' as published in the October 16, 1981 Federal Romister notice FR 51101. This proposal, in conj unction wi th other associated LLRW actions, would be a step towards the NRC stated goals of:

1. Extending the operational lifetime of existing commercial low-level disposal sites;
2. Reducing the number and/or v ol um e of waste shipments.
1. 4 Scope This document is to describe the design and operation of volume-reduction equipment and its associated facility. The information provided consists of the f acility design criteria, the environ-mental and radiological assessments, and a safety or accident analysis, as w ell as information regarding f acility operation and -

decommissioning.

The design basis for the SQNP VR/ SS facility as given in this a document is based on NRC Regulatory Guide 1.143 guidelines.

Regulatory Guide 1.143 was utilized by TVA as a minimum design basis because it was determined to be the most applicable to the nature of the facility, although it was not specifically prepared and issued for this purpose. The actual design parameters em pl oy e d by TVA in the facility's design are in some cases more conservative than those required by Regulatory Guide 1.143.

2I lie,gJJ v D eJJ2J.lR.1.1.9.B This license amendment is intended to incorporate the VR/SS (Volume Reduction and Solidification System) facility into the existing overall plant radwaste facilities previously covered in the Sequoyah Nuclear Plant Final Safety Analysis Report (FSAR).

The contents of this amendment w ill focus entirely on the VR/ SS facility to be added at SQNP. The facility includes process equipment for spent resins; evaporator concentrates; spent regenerates; contaminated oils; and dry active wa ste s which are products of the overall plant operation and maintenance. The VR/SS f a c ili ty w ill be a noncategory I safety-related structure constructed of reinforced concrete and structural steel.

The facility is composed of various sub sy s t em s whi ch are desigaed to collect, treat, volume reduce, recycle, package, and s olid! f y different categories of radioactive material in a safe and economical manner.

The VR is designed to process and reduce the volume of r a di oa c t iv e materials utilizing an incineration and calcination process. The SS will produce a solidified package that is acceptable for storage onsito or disposal offsite. The off gas scrub system w ill collect particulates containing effectively all the radioactive contaminants. This system along with associated radiation control monitoring devices ensures that gaseous e effluents w ill be wi thin acceptable levels.

It is estimated that 53,900 ft8 of wast e will be processed by the VR/SS each year from the two units at SQNP. Table 1.2-1 describes the waste types and volumes. The activity and radionuclide distribution contained in the weste are listed in Table 2.1-1. The waste, before proceasing, will be handled in the manner described in Section 3.0, ' Facility Operations.'

The VR/SS f acili ty will have tw o truck bays to receive waste for processing and to load solidified waste for offsite disposal or onsite storage. Each truck bay is designed to handle a s emi t r a il e r and attached cab. The tw o truck bays will be separated by a shield wall to allow loading of radweste containers on a truck for shipment and simultaneous unloading of other (radioactive or nonradioactive) materials. A crane is supplied to handle drums, shield casks, and other equipment. The handling operations are the same for onsite storage or offsite disposal.

The VR/SS facility storage area is capable of accommodating the solidified product of up to 180 daya of normal operational waste input. This facilitates system operation in the event removal of packaged westes from the area is temporarily delayed or is 2-1

SQNP impractical for short periods.

Preliminary equipment arrangement drawings for the VR/ SS f acility are shown in Figures 2.1-1 through 2.1-8.

2.1.1 Volume Reduction System Description The VR supplied by Aerojet Energy Conversion Company (AECC),

utilizes fluidized bed technology to process a wide variety of low-level radioactive wastes. The AECC VR consists of a fluid bed incinerator, fluid bed dryer, and a common off gas cleanup and f il t er system.

Areas for storage of wastes before processing are provided.

These include a dry waste storage area locsted adjacent to the VR to store bagged uncompacted dry waste with a capacity of seven daya at maximum plant input. Two resin waste co11cetion and storage tanks have a capacity of 5,000 gallons each and are equipped wi th a decenting pump and recirculating pump.

Concentrated liquid w a ste w ill be stored in two 7,500 gallon capacity tanks equipped wi th pumps. Tanks and piping associated w i th the concentrated liquids will be heat traced. The resin storage tanks and the concentrated liquid wa ste storage tanks -

w ill be located in diked rooms which are capable of holding the entire inventory in the event of a pipe or tank rupture.

t Piping and instrumentation diagrams as well as mass energy balance di a g r am s for the VR can be found on Figures 2.1-9 through 2.1-21.

The c a pa bil i ty also exists for the compaction of low radiation level, compressible dry a c t iv e wa s t e into SS gallon drums. An area is provided for remov81 of dry, previously compacted waste from 55 gallon drums. The area is located adjacent to the dry active waste storage area discussed above, and is equipped with air, water, and drain services as well as a vent for collection and treatment of airborne radioactive releases.

The dry act iv e wa stes (e.g., contaminated paper, wood, cardboard, cloth, rubber and plastics, such as polyethylene), and contaminated oil are processed in the fluid bed incinerator vessel and are converted to an ash residue. Liquid wast e s consisting of evaporator concentrates and spent regenerates are processed in the fluid bed dryer and converted to unhydrous, free-flowing salts.

The fluid bed dryer vessel (R-1) used for drying the evaporator concentrates is electrically heated and controlled in several I ways. The airflow is determined by a measured pressure drop across an orifice plate to a proportional fl ow con t roll e r w hi ch regulates the airflow through a butterfly control valve. The bed I

estimated volume reduction factors do not take into account the noncombustible and/or noncompactible trash, but do allow for the additional v ol um e of the solidification agent.

The off-gas from each process vessel is processed by an off gas cleanup sy st em. All waste gas from the proce s s will be treated by dry cyclones, venturi scrubbers, demisters, charcoal 8 adsorbers, and HEPA f il t e r s for removal of radioactivity and chemical impurities. Decontamination factors for the off gas cleanup system are based on actual tests conducted by the VR supplier.

The VR controls are located in the VR/ SS control room. The system's main controls are contained in f r ec- s t an di n g NEMA-4 cabincts. Instrumentalaon in the main control panci (CP-1) is composed of solid-state electronic components and is of standard design.

The VR is equipped with control instrumentation which provides for remote, unattended operation, and automatic shutdown in the event of a malfunction. These system features w ill preclude damage to equipment, and provide adequate safety to plant operating personnel. Process temperatures, pressures, and flow rates are monitored u t il iz in g thermocouples, pressure transmitters, and flow transmitters. Instrumentation and controls maintain process parameters (i.e., temperature, chemistry, radioactivity, pressure, and liquid level) within The limits which assure safe and efficient system operation.

maj or proceas parameters are continually recorded. Safe operation of the VR is provided by control sequencing and interlocks which prevent improper operation and cause automatic 2-3

SGNP sy s t em sh u t d ow n if system parameters are not maintained within accepted operating limits. Alarms alert the operator to abnormal conditions.

The VR instrumentation and control sy st em w ill operate in either automatic or manual modes. Al a rm s and/or shutdown are provided for specific out-of-tolerance conditions. Shutdown is automatic when initiated by the operator or by certain ou t-o f- t ol e ran c e conditions. Under manual mode, the startup and shutdown sequence is under operator control. The process logic provides system interlocking required to prevent ou t- of- se q ue n ce operation, and provides automatic regulation of the process control loops.

Access to the control loop setpoints allows adjustment of the system con troll er s wi thin a l l ow a bl e limi t s while the system is operating.

Gaseous w a st e s w il l be continuously monitored for r adi oa c t iv i ty before relesse. Radiation monitoring is discussed further in Section 2.5, ' Radiation Protection and ALARA.' Processing w il l be terminated if the radioactivity l ev el s in the effluent stream would cause offsite doses in excess of regulatory limits. The ga seou s effluent s tre am w ill be released from a vent loca ted and designed to ensure adequate dispersion characteristics.

The SSE is defined as a top of ground motion wi th maximum horizontal and vertical accelerations of 0.25g. Response spectra for the three statistically independent artificial accelerograms, two horizont al and one vertical, were developed and are included as Figures 2.2-2 and 2.2-3. Each record has a total duration of 22 seconds. The three earthquake components are assumed to occur simultaneously.

2.2.2.1.2 Seismic Ansivsis The seismic analysis of the structure will be based upon dynamic analysis using an idealized mathematical model. In developing the model, the location and mass of the equipment w il l be considered. A sufficient number of ma s s points, located at positions of mass concentration such as floors, will be chosen so that all significant modes of vibration are adequately defined.

In general, to adequetely define the frequency of the highest -

mode to be used in the analysis to within 10 percent, the minimum number of lump masses is twice the mode number. For example, if the first three translational modes are to be used in the .

analysis, at least six lumped masses w il l be included in the model.

The mass of equipment, components, or sy st em s w ill be included directly with the appropriate lumped mass. After the locations of the ma ss points have been established, the number of dynamic degrees of freedom a s socia ted wi th each ma s s w ill be considered.

Six degrees of freedom exist for all mass points, i.e., three t ra nsl a tional and three rotational.

The inertial properties of the model s will be characterized by the mass, eccentricity, and mass moment of inertia of each mass point. Stiffness proper tie s w ill be characterized by th e length, moment of inertia, shear shape factor, torsion constant, Young's modulus, and shear modulus. Vertical modes of the structure w il l be comput e d and their effects included in the structural response.

The structural response w ill be computed by the response spectrum modal analysis technique considering three components of the earthquake acting simultaneously. The total structural response (deflections, a cc el e ra t ions, stresses, etc.) w ill be computed from the individual modal response by the methods described in 2-8

2. Maximum value of live load.
3. Zero value for live load.

Other l oa ds w il l be combined with these live load situations as specified in section 2.2.4.2 and 2.2.4.3.

Creep has an insignificant effect on design of relatively thick reinforced concrete structures because of its relation to stress w i th time and relatively low operating stress conditions, and because it primarily serves to relieve s tre s se s wi thout encroaching on structural safety. It is therefore not considered in the design of the VR/ SS structure.

Where structural effects of shrinkage or differential settlement may be significant, they shall be included with D in equation (1) of section 2.2.4.2. An estimate of shrinkage will be based on a .

realistic assessment of such an effect occurring in service.

- 3.0 FACILITY OPERATIONS 3.1 Volume Reduction Swstem After sufficient waste has been collected, the operator will determine which mode of operation he wishes to use. These are:

(1) drying of evaporator concentrates and/or spent regenerates; (2) simultaneous drying of evaporator concentrates and/or spent regenerates and incineration of dry active waste sad /or contaminated oils; (3) incineration of the dry active waste and/or contaminated oils only; or (4) bypass of the entire WR system.

The first operational mode consists of fluid bed drying of liquid wastes. The evaporator concentrates and spent regenera te s which contain typically 7- to 25-weight percent dissolved solids are pumped from the concentra ted liquid wa ste storage tanks to the venturi scrubber preconcentrator (S-2) by the wast e pump (P-4) as shown in figure 2.1-13. The feedrate to the dryer is automatically controlled by temperature-sensing device s which control the speed of the feed pump. The heat from the drying process w il l be used to preconcentrate the feed to 25- to 28-weight percent. The liquid feed to the drye r will be used as the S-2 off gas scrub solution.

The dry granular bed particles from the dryer are pneumatically i transferred from the fluidized bed to a product storage hopper.

In addition, the over-head gas passes through the gas / solids cyclone wh er e the fines are r emove d and mixed wi th those from the incinerator (R-3) and discharged to a product storage hopper.

The optimum operating mode is for the dryer and incinerator to operate simultaneously. In this mode, the waste heat contained in the incinerator off gas stream is u t il iz e d in the preconcentrator, therefore increasing the liquid input flowrate from the concentrate liquid wa ste storage tanks to the fluid bed dryer sy st em. The scrub solution used to scrub the process off-gas also consists of the incoming liquid wa ste s. After preconcentration, these wastes are then processed in the fluid bed dryer to anhydrous, free-flowing salts. If this is an initial system startup or startup after maintenance has been performed, inert nonradioactive bed ma t erial will be fed into the dryer and incinerator vessels. If used bed material is available, then it will be reintroduced into the vessels as needed. The operator then turns on the electric heating system and blower for both volume reduction subsystems and s tabil iz e s the temperature profile over the system. He then initiates combustible feed to the incinerator and liquid feed to the dryer.

Bags of dry active waste are passed through a metal detector to prevent metal objects from accidentally entering the shredder.

4.1.1 Neteorolony Calculations of atmospheric transport, dispersion, and ground deposition are based on annual-average, ground-l evel me te orology, consistent with the straight-line a i rf l ow model discussed in NRC Regulatory Guide 1.111 (Revision 1, J uly 197 7) . Atmospheric releases from the facility are assumed to be continuous.

Estimates of the normalized air concentrations (X/ Q) and the normalized deposition rates (D/Q) are listed in Table 4.1-2 for point of interest locations, and in Tables 4.1.1-1 for population sector annuli.

All doses related to deposition pathways (ground exposure and -

food inges:fon) are estimated using dry deposition. Calculations of wet deposition based on a washout model and recommendations of Engelmann8 indicate that wet deposition is not a significant j portion of total deposition.

4.1.2 Population _ Distribution Population doses were based on the current U.S. population distribution of:

Catenory Ames JA)* Fraction Infant A(2 .034 Child 21A(13 .211 Teen 131A<19 .134 Adult 191A .621

  • e.g., someone who is 1 year, 11 months of age is an infant, while someone who is exactly two year s old is a child.

Population data are contained in Table 4.1.2-1, i

4.1.3 Dose E_ stimate _s l

Table 4.1.3-1 gives maximum estimated individual doses due to

, operation of a VR at SQNP and Table 4.1.3-2 gives the l estimated population doses. As can be seen from these tables,

( the maximum calculated air dose (immersion) at the site boundary 4-2 ,

i

SQNP

  • from gaseous effluents is 8.1 x 10-8 mrad /yr for SQNP. The maximum calculated individual doses were found to be for individual s with home-use gardens. These doses a re 0.32 mrom/ yr for SQNP. All doses are well within the applicable regulations.

Further, population doses from VR operation are estimated to be 0 .17 m a n- r o m/ y r for SQNP. For a population around SQNP of about 1,100,000 this dose can be compared to doses from natural background of about 1.6 x 108 man-res/yr for a natural background component of 145 mres/yr.

4.1.4 _ Cumulative Immacts For the purposes of determining compliance with 40 CFR 190 limits (25 aren/yr), impacts from all nearby fuel cycle facilities must be summed. The only impacts from nearby fuel cycle facilities w ill be due to the operation of SQNP (FES: 5.6 area /yr) and possible onsite low-level radioactive waste storage modules (< 1 arem/yr) which are predicted to result in a combined dose to the maximum individuals of about 6.6 mres/yr. If these doses are summed wi th those calculated for VR operation (0.32 arem/yr),

then the cumuistive doses are found to be about 7 aren/yr for the SONP site. These doses are below the 40 CFR 190 limits.

- 4.2 Incrosents! Occonstional Exnosures 4.2.1 Exoosure From Routine Onorations k

The occupational exposure to be expected from the operation of this facility depends on the activity of the material being processed, the design of the f acility, and the operational and maintenance requirements of'the equipment. The facility design obj ectives outlined in Section 2.5, ' Radiation Protection and l ALARA,' ensure that the design of the f acility will be such that ALARA principles w il l be observed. In addition, the process equipment is designed so that components containing significant amounts of radioactive material can be remotely drained and flushed (or s im il a rly treated) prior to pe rf orming mainte nance on these components. The compa r tm ent aliz a ti on of the f acility provides assurance that exposure from other components during maintenance w il l be minimal. Exposure due to operational requirement s will be minimized by a high degree of automation of the proceas equipment. Manual operation of process valves and process surveillance (e.g., reading of process instrumentation) w ill be carried out from areas of l ow radioactivity whenever possible.

The measures outlined above give assurance that the occupational exposure resulting from the operation of this f a cili ty will be as low as is reasonably achievable.

. 5.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ASS ESSMENT 5 .1 Environmental Ino_ acts._of the Pronosed Action 5.1.1 Construction-Related Inonets i Construction impacts a s sociated with this proj e c t include fugitive dust, gaseous emissions, s il t a ti on, noise, socioeconomic, and potential impact on existing structures at Sequoyah Nuclear P l a n t ~.

5.1.1.1 Air Quality The VR/ SS f acility construction a ctivitie s will result in a temporary degradation of the local air quality. Air pollutants genera ted will primarily include: (1) fugitive particulate emissions from activities such as drilling and mixing concrete (in a batch pl ant ); (2) fugitive dust from carth excavation and grading, and wind erosion of disturbed land surfaces; and (3) pa r t ic ul a t e, hydrocarbon (HC), nitrogen oxide (NOx), and c a rbon monoxide (CO) emissions from fossil-fueled construction equipment and construction empl oy e e v eh icl e s.

Disturbed land surf ace s will be sprinkled wi th wa t e r, as ne ce s sa ry, to minimize fugitive dust em i s si on s . Baghouse f il t er s w ill be used to control particulate emissions at the concreto

Overall, construction is expected to have a minor and transitory impact on air quality.

5.1.1.2 Land Use Inoscts The construction of the VR/SS facility as currently conceived w ill require approximately 1 acre of land, all within the SQNP

! reservation boun da ry. The proposed action i nv ol v e s no offsite I

land-use conflicts. The proposed action is compatible with the land-use pl an w ith in the SQNP reservation for the nucl ear plant and its support f a c ili tie s.

5.1.1.3 Siltation i

During construction of this facility, runof f will be drained in a manner that w ill minimize erosion and the amount of sediment

, reaching local bodies of water. Control of construction runoff l will be in accordance with practices developed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) pursuant to the Clean Water Act (Guidelines for Erosion and Sediment Control Plannina and l

Implementation), EPA Environmental Protection Technological Series - EPA-R2-72-015, (August 1972). Applicable requirements l

l 5-1

SDNP designed to prevent pollution from this construction activity will be met. The existing NPDES permit w il l cover any -

construction-related runoff from the proposed action. With these precautions, construction activities are not expected to have a significant impact on water quality.

5.1.1.4 Noise No significant impacts are expected in either environmental or occupational noise.

5 .1.1. 5 Solid Waste There w il l be a small amount of solid wast e generated due to the construction of the VR/ SS f acility. Solid wa st es generated during construction will be h andl ed in accordance w ith applicable Federal, State and local regulations, and TVA policies and practices.

5.1.1.6 Sanitary Waste S an i t a ry wastes generated during construction will be h andl e d in a c cordanc e wi th applicable regulations. During the construction period, portable chemical toilets will be provided for use by construction personnel. ,

On April 24, 1980 the Tennessee Stete Historic Preservation Officer c on c ur r e d wi th TV A's determination that construction of this proj ect would have no effect on any site either on or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.

5.1.1.8 Endanaered and Threatened Species The propo se d proj e c t w ill not contribute to the further decline of any kn ow n populations of Federally listed or proposed endangered or threatened species, or result in modification or destruction of habitat considered critical to the survival of such forms.

5.1.1.9 Floodelsins and Wetlands The site for the proposed action is not located in a floodplain, nor is it expected to directly or indirectly support or encourage floodplain development. There are no wetlands which w ill be affected by the pr oj e c t . Therefore, the proposed action is in compliance with TVA policies on floodplain management and wetlands protection.

SQNP 5.1.1.10 Socioeconomic There is now and will continue to be ongoing construction at SQNP, and there i s manpow e r, housing, and services av a ilabl e in the area to fill the construction and labor skill requirements for the VR/ SS f acility. As a result of an adequate supply of manpower, no overall population increase is expected as a result of this construction activity, and because this plant is near an urban area (Chattanooga, Tennessee), no significant socioeconomic impacts are expected.

5.1.2 Operation of the VR/ SS 5 .1. 2 .1 Air Quality Operation of the VR is expected t o r e sul t in emissions from combustion of wa ste s in the incinerator /calciner subsystem.

Primary pollutants expected to be emitted include SO2, NOx, H C, CO, and particulates. For each of these, relatively small amount s will be emitted. These w il l be released through a stack that is at least 10 feet higher than the building. A semil quantity of other pollutants may be emitted, depending upon the composition of the waste material. Ra di ol o gi c al r el ea se s and

. their impacts are discussed in chapter 4.

Tables 5.1.2-1 and 5.1.2-2 give quantitative inf orma tion on

$t non r a di ol og i c a l air pollutants expected to be emitted by the VR. The emission rates given in Table 5.1.2-1 were taken at a discharge to a stack during actual prototype system process runs. The particulate emission rate wa s estimated using

' Compilation of Air Pollutant Emission Factors' (See footnote C of Table 5.1.2-2) for industrial / commercial refuse incinerators.

Pl anne d pa rt i cul a t e controls for the VR result in a conservative decontamination factor of 1 x 108 l TV A w ill obtain an air permit from the Chattanooga-Hamilton County Air Pollution Control Bureau for the release of nonradiological air pollutants expected to be released by the VR.

5.1.2.2 Water Quality The operation of the VR/ SS will generate small amounts of i

drainage which will be collected in sumps in the VR/SS facility.

l Radioactive and n on-ra dioa ct iv e draina ge will be segregated.

Radioactive draina g e will be pumped to +he existing liquid ra dw a s t e system for treatment, and nonradioactive drainage w il l be pumped to the turbine building sump for any necessary treatment and discharged after meeting applicable NPDES limits.

The capability to treat nonradioactive drainage as radwaste will he provided. Operation of the VR/ SS will not result in an additional NPDES discharge point. The physical and chemical characteristics of the VR/ SS drainage w il l be estimated, EPA will 5-3

l l

SQNP be notified of any changes to existing discharge streams r e sul ti ng from addition of the VR/ SS. .

5.1.2.3 Noise No significant environmental noise impacts are expected. Within TVA, occupational noise is controlled to meet the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines for employee noise exposure.

5 .1. 2 . 4 Solid Weste Masanonent The Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976 (RCRA) specifically excludes nucl ear material regulated under the Atomic Energy Act o f 1954, as amended (which cov er s LLRW) . Because the operation of the VR/ SS will result in no significant additional amounts of solid waste to be handled, other than LLRW, the proposed action does not have solid wast e management impacts associated with it. Should solid and hazardous wastes other than LLRW be generated, th ey would be managed in accordance with applicable EPA regulations for solid and hazardous wa ste s, and TVA policies and practices.

5.2 Unevoid_able Adverse Environmental Inoscts

~

There are no significant environmental impacts a s sociated with the construction and operation of the VR/ SS. During construction some siltation may occur and the release of small amounts of gaseous and particulate pollutants can be expected. No -

significant c umul a t iv e impacts have been identified.

5.3 Irreversible and Irretrievable Commitments of Resources Irreversible and irretrievable commitments of resources will include fuel oils involved in the construction of the proposed facilitie: along with materials used for the construction of the VR/ SS facility.

SQNP 6.0 ACCIDENT REVIEW 6 .1 General Close evaluation of the system revealed several accidents that could result in a release of radiation to the environment. These accidents were reviewed and are discussed below.

6.2 Process Accident Postulatiqn The accidents given considerati on were chosen after a review of the system. Little a ttention was placed on the mechanistic origin of the accident but rather on the result. There are several component s which re t ain radioactive material for a significant time and the failure of which should be considered.

These are as follows:

1. Rosin Waste Feed - Rosin slurry is held up in the storage tanks.
2. Dry Waste Feed - A volume of dry waste is present in the hoppers (B-3A, H-3B) and feed system. Each dry waste feed hopper (H-3A/B) contains 2,000 pounds of dry waste, consisting of approximately 95 percent nominal 1/2-inch particles, and 5 percent dust.

( 3. Bed Media Storage - Bed storage hoppers (H-4 and B-2) contain the used, cont amina te d, bed media. The incinerator and dryer bed materials are stored in transfer hoppers (H-4 and H-2),

respectively, only when the system is shut down.

4. Product Storage Hopper - A significant amount of activity can be contained in the collected product, i
5. Process Gas Fil t e r - A small amount of particula t e will be i loaded on the filters and the charcoal iodine adsorber can l contain iodine at any time.

l J 6. Scrub Solution System - The scrub solution in scrubber-preconcentrator (S-2) can contain a significant amount of a c t iv i ty in the form of dissolved solids, particulate, and iodine.

7. Process Vessel - The dry waste processor (R-3) contains bed l media which is contaminated after use and w ill contain s

! significant amount of activity. The process is designed to blow process ma terial s overhead rather than to accumulate them in the bed. Therefore, the bed will not contain a large i

quantity of process solids at any point in time, l

6.3 P r o c e s s __A s t i_d e n t_s Considered Three scenarios believed to result in the most severe consequences were further investigated. The product st ora ge hopper w as considered because of the potentially high radioactivity of the product; the scrub solution because of the potentially high concentration of dissolved iodine; the process gas f il t e r train because of the long-term collection of particulate before changeout is necessary plus the iodine in the iodine adsorber.

6.3.1 Loss _of Product _from__the Product Storsae_Honner The loss of product from the product storage hopper would result in spillage of dry salts and ash. Since a portion of the spilled material would be entrained in the air, the possibility exists for occupational as well as offsite exposure.

6.3.1.1 Detection _of the Accident If the hopper w ere to fail, several sy st ems would be affected.

The activity rel ea se would be detected by radia tion monit ors.

Shutdown of the sy st em w ould f oll ow by operator action.

6.3.2 Sulli of Scrub _ Solution The scrubber-preconcentrator (S-2) has potentially high concentrations of dissolved iodine. The scrubber (S-4) does not .

contain a significant amount of activity. Although there are 120 gallons of scrubber solution in the S-3/S-4 loop, the concentration of dissolved solids is only in 100-250 ppa range, as shown in Material Balance F l ow Diagram Figure 2.1-20.

During previous radioiodine tracer tests discussed in AECC Topical No. AECC-1-A, it was determined that iodine compounds are present in the sy st em. The amount of iodine held by organic compounds was found to be related to the quantity of oil in the dry e r feed; and could therefore vary with time depending on non-VR conditions. Essentially all iodine would be collected in the first scrubber preconcentrator; the final scrubbe r w ould be expected to collect almost no iodine. The remaining amount w ill pass on to be absorbed on to the charcoal adsorber. A scrubber-preconcentrator and the scrubber vessel could rupture or a pipe transferring high activity and possible volatile solutions could break, dumping the contents onto the floor. This pipe could be on the scrub pump (P-3) discharge side and could pump the entire inventory of the scrub vessels onto the floor.

6-2

4 SGNP 6.3.2.1 Petection of t h a___A c c i d ial Any loss of liquid in significant quantity from the scrubber-preconcentrator vessel or s crubber ve s sel would be detected with the tank level indicator and/or alarm, and the operator would shut down the system. Loss of scrub flow to the venturi in the event the operator does not respond will result in automatic shutdown of the system.

6.3.3 Blowout of the Process Gas Filter The process gas filter train provides long-term collection of particulate, plus holdup of iodine in the charcoal adsorber.

A po st ula ted accident, involving a pressure excursion of undetermined cause and subsequent rupture of the filter housing, could occur and result in the discharge of the contents of the HEPA f il t e r s and of the iodine adsorber.

6.3.3.1 Detection of the Accident This accident would result in a Icss of pressure drop across the HEPA filters that would be detected by the operator. This

, accident would also initiate automatic shutdown due to a high radiation level in the exhaust gas flow.

( 6.4 Process Accidents An s i v m ej The three assumed accident scenarios discussed in Section 6.3 were investigated using conservative assumptions to determine the one which posed the most significant radiological consequence.

This analysis revealed that the accident scenario of loss of product from the product storage hopper could produce the most severe consequences to in plant personnel, and blowout of the l process gas filters could produce the most severe consequences in j unrestricted areas. These consequences are discussed below.

I 6.4.1 Eyposure as_a Consecuence of an Accident The release of radioactive material to the f acility as the result of a failure of one or more system components could result in unintended exposure of the operating personnel. Of a number of possibilities considered, the most severe consequences would result from the rupture of the product hopper; the assumed scenario for and the consequences of such an accident are described below.

It is assumed that the product storage hopper hes accumulated process product which represents one year's radioactivity input (Table 6.4-1). Radioactive decay during the collection time is taken into account. The resulting activity in the product

- storage hopper is also shown in Table 6.4-1.

6-3 i

l

SQNP Following the failure of the product storage hopper, it is assumed that 25 percent of the material in the hopper spills into the cubicle. This material is in the form of small particles; it is assumed that the size distribution of the particles is such that 10 percent of them w ill remain suspended in the air rather than settling out, i.e., 2.5 percent of the radioactivity is airborne. It is further assumed that the building ventilation system would be operating. The ventilation effluent is discharged through a HEPA f il t e r, hence, the activity w ill collect on this f il t e r. A 100-percent collection was conservatively assumed. The resulting dose rate at a distance of tw o feet from the face of the f il ter w a s calculated to be 57 res/ h.

The HEPA fil ter s will be located behind shield walls. Radiation monit or s w ill be provided which will sound a local alarm on high radiation level. This w il l permit personnel who may be performing routine maintenance in this area to exit, thus avoiding an excessive dose. Assuming two minut e s as the egress t im e , total body doses received by any individual would be less than 2 rem, 6.4.2 Doses to Unrestricted Areas Following an Accident The rel ea se of radioactive material to unrestricted areas as a result of the failure of a VR/SS component could result in s exposure of the general public. The most severe consequences would result from the destruction of the process gas filters.

The material released from these f il t e r a can be carried directly from the bu il di ng w i th out having to pass through the filters of the building HVAC system.

The radioisotope inventory on the process gas filters, corresponding to one year's radioactivity input, is given in Table 6.4-1 t oge ther w ith the annual input activity. It is assumed that the full filter inventory is released directly to the environment.

The radioactive material is transported to the unrestricted area, taking account of the prevalent meteorological conditions. For conservatism, the 5th percentile I/O values used in the accident evaluations in the SQNP FSAR, Chapter 15, ' Environmental Consequences of Accidents,' are used here. These values are 1.64 x 10 -8 s/ms for the site boundary and 1.96 x 10-* s/m8 for the low population zone boundary.

Using the assumptions outlined above, the total body dose to an individual at the site boundary, a distance of 556 m, would be 0.01 rem, with the corresponding inhalation dose to the thyroid of 60 rem. The dose received by an individual at the edge of the low population zone (4828 m) would be 0.001 rem total body and 6-4

SGNP 7 .1 rem thyroid.

Maximum exposure limits to the general public as the result of an accident at a nuclear power plant are set forth in 10 CFR 100 and are 25 rem whol e body or 300 ren thyroid. The exposures calculated above ar e well b el ow these limits.

6.5 Handlina Accidents 6.5.1 Dronnina of a Recentiv Filled Product Drum The only operation in the VR/ SS f acility which would have possible radiological consequence is the transfer of recently filled drums using the overhead crane.

The po st ul a t ed accident would be the dropping of a drum just filled with product and solidification agent as it is being transferred by crane to either the drum inspection station or the drum storage area. Since the drum w ill be capped prior to lifting, the drum container should not be breached by a drop.

However if it were breached, plant personnel could remove the waste, repackage i t, and decontaminate the area as required.

Therefore, the radiological consequences of a dropped drum are

- considered to be small.

The design of the facility's crane makes this accident event

', highly improbabl e. The drum grab is rated at one ton and utilizes four clamping j aw s designed to clamp on the upper drum flange at equally spaced locations and to provide equal clamping pressure. A redundant motor operated clamp actuator and load sensing limit sw i t che s provide positive load release control and preclude releasing drums unless firmly supported. Also, a television camera allows the operator to visually verify the drum grab orientation and gripping. Therefore, the probability of a drum being dropped is very low.

6.6 Syst3m Desian Safety Features to Preclude Accident.s 6.6.1 folume Reduction Systen Automatic process shutdown interlocks as discussed below are provided in the VR to preclude damage to the process equipment and prov ide safety to plant personnel in the event of a process upset. Process shutdowns are automatically initiated by the f oll ow in g conditions and preclude startup until the mal f unc t i on has been corrected:

1. The entire gas train system pressure is affected by various malfunction conditions such as; high or low fluidizing airflow, high or low pressure drops across the scrubber-preconcentrator, plugged duc tw ork or leaks. Any of these

- failures activate shutdown and individually set alarms 6-5

SQNP facilitating location of trouble spots. ,

, 2. High temperature on the Scrubber-Preconcentrator (S-2).

3. Low discharge pressure on the Condenser Pump (P-5).
4. Failure of the Air Blower (C-1).

An automatic process shutdown results in immediate s hut d ow n of the f oll ow ing equipment:

1. Air Blow er (C-1) 5. Startup Hester (E-4)
2. Air Hester (E-1) 6. Dryer Feed Pump (P-2)
3. Gas Heater (E-2) 7. Waste Feed Pump (P-4) 4 Bed Heater (E-3) 8. Dry Waste Feeder (B-3A e B) 6.6.2 Solidification Systes In addition to normal process status indications, additional al a rm s and indications are provided. ,Should any of these indications be annunciated, they will alarm and cause en audible signal to be turned on. System f unctions monit ored wi th these indications include: flush w a ter pr es sur e, machinery air pressure, decant tank high level, select decant tank feed, motor -

overload trip, drum process cycle complete, no cap in drum, no fill selection, drum overfill, and drum process fault.

Flush Water _P_ressure is alarmed if water pressure drops b e l ow or rises above recommended pressure. Should either of these conditions occur, a pressure transmitter located in the system line w ill initiate alarm circuitry. In addition, this fault w ill cause drumming station operations and decanting station operations except decant tank filling to be stopped. Once the alarm condition has been corrected, operations can then be reinitiated.

Machine _rv Air Pressors is monitored with a pressure transmitter located near an air regulator used for controlling air pressure for operation of the valve actuators and metering pumps. This transmitter has been set to e n er g iz e alarm circuitry should air pressure supplying the equipment exceed 100 psig or drop below 60 psig.

6-6 +

SQNP The Decent Tsak Hiah Level alarm indicates high level waste conditions w i th in the dooant tank. This alarm is controlled by a sonic sensor mounted at the top of the decant tank which is preset to annunciate a high level condition prior to waste being spilled over into the ov e r fl ow pipe. Instrumentation supplied with this sensor al l ow s for two high-level set points in order to provide advance annunciation to the operator of the approach of an overfilling condition, and to automatically close valvos to stop filling. In addition, contact initiations are provided which may be incorporated into control circuits for liquid system pumps feeding the decant tank.

Select Decant Tank Feed annunciations are alarmed should the operator fail to select a feed stream for filling the decant tank.

Motor Overload Trio alarms are annunciated should any of the f oll ow in g motors have an ov e rl oa d trip: decant mixer drive motor, decant arm drive motor, decant pump motor, pivot drive motor, lift drive motor, clamp drive motor, capper drive motor, and tumble drive motor. In addition to the console alarm display, each motor has been provided with status indications on the electrical cabinet doors where their respective motor

, starters are located. These status indications display whether a run, stop, or motor overload condition exists. This allows the operator to quickly and positively identify which motor ha s i tripped.

Drun Process Cycle Conclete is annunciated when the drum is ready to be removed from the drumming station.

No Cap In_ Drum is annuncia ted whenever the drumming process has gone through the uncapping sequence and no cap has been detected by th e capper. Should this condition exist, the automatic process sequence will stop and not advance to the next operation.

No Fill Selection is annunciated s h oul d the operator fail to select the amount of waste to be pumped into the drum with metering pump control sw i t ch e s . Should this condition occur, the automatic processing sequenc e will stop until the alarm condition has been corrected.

Drum Overfi(1 is annunciated whenever drum pumping operations approach an overfill condition. A sonic sensor mounted in the fill nozzle for the concentrated waste and the decant tank slurries at the drumming station is used to detect drum content

! levels and is preset to initiate alarm circuitry prior to l spillage conditions. Circuitry automatically stops pumping before overfilling occurs.

S 6-7

SQNP Drum Pr_ocess Fault is annuncia ted whenever a problem in the drum ,

processing program e2fsts. This alarm is given in coincidence with all other alarms. Timing relays and interlocks are used in conj unction w ith the automatic sequence program for drumming operation to verify that operations automatically advance as programmed.

The alarm circuitry is int erlocked with station controls to stop drumming station and decanting station operations except decant tank f il l ing . Once the alarm condition has been corrected, station operations can then be reinitiated.
