Sealed Vessel Leak Test [Slides]

A test plan has been developed to verify the results obtained from sealed vessels used in support of the JT5-Alt370-IN-1 compatibility testing. The test plan needs to be verified by doing a mock test on testing vessels, it will be adjusted and redone as necessary then conducted on the remaining vessels from the compatibility tests.

Helium Leak Test Data for System Evaluation

The test data in the flowing pages below has been created to ensure the maintenance conducted on the current MSHLD systems is satisfactory per ASNT Level III review. This is diagnostic test data only and it is intended to be used as a reference document.

Canister Helium Leak Detection Based on Temperature Information Using RAMM (Final CRADA Report)

The performance of RAMM-TM in detecting gas leakage from a canister with a small, simulated chloride-induced stress corrosion crack has been demonstrated in a series of experiments conducted at CRIEPI by using a 1/4.5- scale model cask. Leakage of both helium and air from a canister was detected within hours after the start of the leakage. The change in surface temperatures at the top and bottom of the canister (ΔTBT) during gas leakage (depressurization) triggered automatic alarms, providing a sound basis for early detection of gas leakage from the canister. This methodology would enable consequence management through the implementation of mitigatory actions to continue effective aging management, to reduce risks to public safety and health, and to protect the environment.

Characterization of Infrequent Samples from the Concentration, Storage, and Transfer Facility: Leak Detection Box (LDB) Drain Cell Sample: August 04, 2022 Sample

Savannah River Mission Completion Engineering (SRMC-E) requested that the Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) analyze the Concentration, Storage, and Transfer Facility (CSTF) samples from the following Tank Farm areas: the sump encasement, catch tank, drain cell, and waste tank annulus. In general, these CSTF samples will be analyzed on an infrequent basis and analyses will include detection for total beta/gamma activities, total alpha activity, free hydroxide, and pH measurements.

High-Temperature Freeze & Leak-Resistant Advanced Molten Salt Valve (Final Project Report)

The overall goal of this investigation was to develop an innovative high-temperature chloride molten salt flow control valve capable of operation up to 750 °C. The team developed an integrated active and passive thermal management system to ensure robust design for freeze-thaw cycles, with either a bellows-sealed configuration, a high-temperature stuffing box, or combination of the two. The STM system is unique in the industry.

Mitigating leaks in membranes

Two-dimensional material based filters, their method of manufacture, and their use are disclosed. In one embodiment, a membrane may include an active layer including a plurality of defects and a deposited material associated with the plurality of defects may reduce flow therethrough. Additionally, a majority of the active layer may be free from the material. In another embodiment, a membrane may include a porous substrate and an atomic layer deposited material disposed on a surface of the porous substrate. The atomic layer deposited material may be less hydrophilic than the porous substrate and an atomically thin active layer may be disposed on the atomic layer deposited material.
