Development of High Waste Loading Glasses for Advanced Melter Technologies

[摘要] The vitrification programs at Hanford and Savannah River may benefit from higher temperature glass formulations that are processable in advanced melters (e.g., induction-heated, cold-crucible melter (ICCM)) or by changing the current liquidus temperature (TL) limit for Joule heated ceramic melters (JHCM). The focus of this report was on the glass formulation activities in support of the ICCM and JHCM demonstrations with C-106/AY-102 simulant. The intent was to provide preliminary (non-optimized) glass formulations for a specific waste stream that met processing requirements, DOE product quality specifications, and programmatic objectives for the two melter types.
