Effect of Citrate on the Solubility of Uranium (VI) in WIPP Brine

The Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP) is the only active deep geological repository in the United States for the disposal of defense-related transuranic (TRU) waste, located in the northern part of the Delaware Basin in southeastern New Mexico, approximately 26 miles east of Carlsbad. The repository is situated 2,150 feet (about 610 meters) underground within the Salado Formation, a thick layer of stable salt deposits. This unique geological formation provides a secure and long-term environment for isolating TRU waste, ensuring its safe containment for thousands of years.

Summary of the Brine Availability Test in Salt (BATS), Including Extended Plan for Experiments at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP)

This document lays out a set of near-future investigations in salt, the third phase of BATS (BATS 3). This phase is planned to answer the few remaining issues from the first two phases of BATS (BATS 1 and BATS 2), and to prepare for a subsequent large-scale demonstration phase. The BATS experiments are the first part of a larger plan to conduct field experiments to answer specific technical questions, improve the technical basis for disposal of heat-generating radioactive waste in salt (Stauffer et al., 2015; SNL et al., 2020), and demonstrate readiness for disposal of radioactive waste in salt, including large, hot waste packages.
