Retrieval and Pipeline Transfer Assessment of Hanford Tank 241-AN-105 Waste

“…Tank AN-105 saltcake (solids and interstitial solution) mostly contains Al, Cl, F, Cr, K, Na, P, S, Si, inorganic carbon (expressed as a carbonate compound), and organic carbon (likely oxalate). The main ions are Al(OH) 4 -, Cl -, COO -, F -, OH -, NO 3 -, NO 2 -, PO 4 3-, and SO 4 2- (Jo et al 1997;Herting 1997). Water accounts for 44.7 wt% of the saltcake.…”

Data reconcilation study of Tank 241-AN-105 at the Hanford Site

“…The chemical analyses of these samples is given in Ref. 6. These samples were cooled to ambient temperature and separated into two fractions: drainable liquid and slurry.…”

“…4 Liquid density at ambient conditions was obtained from the 1996 core samples. 6 The average density of the sludge at ambient temperature also was obtained from the 1996 core samples. 6 The crust in AN-105 is too thin to obtain meaningful density data from the core samples.…”

“…6 The average density of the sludge at ambient temperature also was obtained from the 1996 core samples. 6 The crust in AN-105 is too thin to obtain meaningful density data from the core samples. Densities of the NC layer also have been estimated using x-ray images of the retained gas sampler (RGS).…”
