Composition measurements of the quenched, high-chromium matrix glasses

In this report, the Savannah River National Laboratory provides analyses of glass compositions for a series of simulated Direct Feed High-Level Waste glasses fabricated at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The series included quenched versions of the glasses. These data will be used in the development of improved property/composition models for waste vitrification at Hanford.

Composition Measurements of the HFG1 Glasses

This report provides results from the analyses of glass compositions for the High Fluoride Glasses-1, a series of simulated nuclear waste glasses fabricated at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The series included the quenched version of the glasses. These data will be used to validate or identify areas of potential characterization improvements in the current glass property/composition models. Chemical analyses were performed on a representative sample of each of the quenched glasses to allow for comparisons with the targeted compositions. The relative differences between the targeted and measured concentrations of F, K 2 0, and Li 2 O for some of the glasses were greater than 10%. Overall, there were no indications of errors in batching of the simulated waste glasses. These results can be used in further characterization of this series of glasses, including the normalization of Product Consistency Test results.

Product Consistency Test Results for the LAW Phase 5 Glasses

This report provides the results of the Vapor Hydration Test solutions and the Product Consistency Test leachates from the Low-Activity Waste Phase 5 glasses, a series of simulated nuclear waste glasses fabricated at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The series included quenched and canister-centerline cooled versions of the glasses. These data will be used in the development of enhanced property/composition models for waste glass vitrification at Hanford. Several of the blanks had detectable amounts of sodium and/or silicon. The measured concentrations (mg/L) of boron, sodium, and silicon for the low-activity test reference material glass included with the Product Consistency Tests were much lower than the expected low-activity test reference material test results. A review of the Product Consistency Test data indicated that there was generally little difference between the normalized values based on targeted or measured glass composition. Heat treatment had various impacts on the normalized concentration values. Most of the glasses had NC B , NC Na , and NC Si values that were greater than the Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant low-activity waste constraint of 4 g/L. The release rates for boron, sodium, and silicon were highly correlated for the study glasses.

Product Consistency Test Results for the LAW ALG Glasses

This report provides the results of the Product Consistency Test leachates from the Low-Activity Waste Algorithm glasses, a series of simulated nuclear waste glasses designed and fabricated at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The series included quenched and canister centerline cooled versions of the glasses. These data will be used in the development, validation, and implementation of enhanced property/composition models for waste glass vitrification at Hanford.

Product Consistency Test Results for the Environmental Management Headquarters (EMHQ) Low-Activity Waste (LAW) Glasses

This report provides the results of the Product Consistency Test leachates from the Environmental Management Headquarters Low-Activity Waste glasses, a series of simulated nuclear waste glasses designed and fabricated at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The series included quenched versions of the glasses. These data will be used in the development, validation, and implementation of enhanced property/composition models for waste glass vitrification at Hanford. The measured concentrations of the analytes in the test blank samples were below detection limits. The measured concentrations of B, Li, Na, and Si in the Approved Reference Material-1 samples included with the Product Consistency Tests fell within control chart values indicating proper test performance. The measured glass compositions for the study glasses were close to target values: therefore, little difference was seen when evaluating the normalized values using the targeted or measured glass compositions. The $NC_B$, $NC_{Na}$, and $NC_{Si}$ values were less than the Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant low-activity waste constraint of 4 g/L for all glasses.

Consistent $\overline{ν}$ evaluation for minor Pu isotopes with CGMF

This report follows up on the evaluation work done in 2023 where we developed a procedure and performed the first consistent evaluation of the average prompt neutron multiplicity for minor Pu isotopes, including 238,240-242 Pu, using CGMF. Details on the necessary updates to the release version of CGMF, the experimental data and experimental uncertainty quantification that went into the evaluation, and this first evaluation effort are documented in and will not be repeated in this report. Instead, we discuss here the further investigations into the CGMF model space to improve the evaluation results from FY23. Additionally, we note that these evaluation results have been transformed into the ENDF format for mean values and covariances, and validation with critical assemblies has been performed; that work is documented elsewhere. In this short report, we discuss the updated evaluation efforts performed during FY24 in Sec. 2, show results from CGMF for other prompt fission observables in Sec. 3, and then briefly conclude in Sec. 4.
