Energy (DOE) i s performing a technical analysis t o support the potential development of risk-based, numerical radiological control c r i t e r i a (RCC) for mixed waste from DOE operations. As p a r t of the technical analysis, potential future radiation doses are being calculated f o r workers a t thermal treatment f a c i l i t i e s and members of the public residing near such f a c i l i t i e s. This study compared two types of therm'al treatment systems: combustion chamber with excess a i r , represented by a rotary kiln with afterburner, and an oxygen-deficient pyrolysis u n i t , represented by a plasma arc furnace.
