.,j i The type of waste covered by this document is bead ion exchange p

resin mixed with powdered resin up to a 28 wot weight percent of f

powdered resin. In order to ensure that the contents of the jJ liners to be processed fall within the acceptable range with f

j!

(.

respect to the parameters, samples of the liner contents must be gp analyzed prior to solidification. Analysis includes pH, deter-

NOTE:

Data taken as instructed in this section shall be i

recorded on the attached Waste Solidification Data-

[

Sheet, Attachment A.

.e

, 3-7.1 Chemical Analysis and Pretreatment

.,L' 7.1.1 EXAMINE the sample for evidence of detergents. If large quantities of detergents are present, the J'

sample should be treated vnh an anti-foaming agent. The quantity of anti-foaming agent required I-(

1 shall be recorded on Attachment A.

'73 i#

7.1.2 EXAMINE the surface of the sample for any signs of

'b oil.

y If a measurable quantity of oil exists,

  • 9 determine the volume and record it as a percent of the total sample volume, otherwise note "none" or y

"less than one percent" (1%) by volume. If the p

quantity of' oil is greater than 11 by volume, the c.J oil shall be reduced to less than 1% by skimming

'(

prior to recording.

7.1.3 MEASURE the pH of the sample and record.

.1' NOTE:

If necessary, adjust the pH to greater than 4 using 50 weight percent sodium J

hydroxide solution. The quantity of sodium hydroxide added shall be recorded on Attachment A.

7.1.4 PERFORM an isotopic analysis of an appropriate

(

aliquot of the sample.

7.2 Test solidification 7-'

7.2.1 MEASURE 158.0 gas (* 180 ml) of dewatered waste M.(

from the liner into a 1000 ml disposable beaker or y

similar sized container.

-electric mixer or by hand.

'j 7.2.5 After sufficient mixing (2 minutes after all cement and anhydrous sodium metasilicate have been

.i added) so that a homogeneous mixture is obtained, allow the waste to CURE for a minimum of 24 hours2.777778e-4 days <br />0.00667 hours <br />3.968254e-5 weeks <br />9.132e-6 months <br />.

g 7.3 Solidification Acceptability The following criteria define an acceptable solidification process and process parameters.-

f

(

7.3.1 The sample solidifications are considered acceptable I

if there is no visual or drainable free water.

1 1

'i 7.3.2 The sample solidifications are considered acceptable if upon visual inspection the waste appears that i

i it would hold its shape if removed from the beaker and it resists penetration.

q 7.4 Solidification Unacceptability 1

7.4.1 i

If a test sample fails to provide acceptable 1

solidification, perform the following steps:

t a.

Mix egual volumes of dry cement and water to a

ensure that the problem is not a bad batch of cement.

t j

b.

Add additional caustic solution to raise the pH above S.

i If the waste is only partially solidified, c.

use lower waste to cement and additive ratios.

Using the recommended quantities of cement i

and anhydrous sodium metasilicate, reduce the sample weight by 21.7 gas (* 25 al) and the water weight by 7.5 grams.
