SUMMARYANDCONCLUSIONSThis report provides a summary of the results obtained for a limited variability study for glassescontaining Precipitate Hydrolysis Aqueous (PHA), Monosodiumtitanate (MST), and either simulatedPurex or HM sludge. Twenty glasses containing Purex sludge and three glasses containing HM sludgewere fabricated and tested. The fabricated glasses were tested for durability using the ProductConsistency Test (PCT) and characterized by measuring the melt viscosity and an approximate,bounding liquidus temperature. The current models used by Defense Waste Processing Facility(DWPF) for predicting durability, viscosity, and Iiquidus temperature were applied to all 23 glasses.The goal of this work was to identify any major problems from a glass perspective that couldpotentially preclude the use of higher levels of PHA and MST at DWPF.

The selection of Purex sludge for the majority of the glasses fabricated in this study was based on theknowledge that this sludge type has historically been the most difilcult sludge to incorporate into glass.Depleted uranium was introduced into the simulated Purex sludge to better represent the uraniumcontent (- 9 wt% oxide) of actual sludge.

One of the major concerns for this study was the effect of higher levels of PHA in the glass. The planfor this work was to vary the PHA level from 7 to 13 wt% oxide, which can be compared to theexpected/design basis of 6 to 8 wt% oxide. Another concern was the potential for higher levels oftitanium (from MST) into the glass. The current limit for Ti02 in the DWPF glass is 1 wt$%whereasthe scope of this work varied the Ti02 level fkom 1 to 2 wt%.

Frit 202 was used in this study and was the frit originally designed for coupled operations at DWPF.

As part of this study, the model predictions were made using targeted, measured, and bias-correctedmeasured compositions of the glasses. For glasses where there were no batching difflcukies, it wasdemonstrated that the results were essentially insensitive to the type of composition used in thesemodels. This provides evidence that the glasses produced were close to the targeted compositions, andthat the analytical measurements were of high quality.

Glass Durability. All 23 glasses were very durable as measured by the PCT. The values ranged from0.90 to 1.76 gLLfor boron release for the Purex glasses and from 0.45 to 0.50 @L,for boron release forthe HM glasses. For comparison, the reference Environmental Assessment (EA) glass has a boron rateof 16.7 #L.

Model Pre&ction of Durability. The PCCS durability model predicted values for boron release thatwere all within the 95% prediction limits of the model.

Homogeneity. The durability model was developed for glasses that are not phase separated(amorphous) and this is controlled through application of a homogeneity discriminator. The majorityof the glasses (17 of the 23 glasses) failed this discrimination model. The PCT results for the glassesof this study (all of which were rapidly quenched) revealed that measured durability is not a functionof predicted phase separation based upon the current homogeneity model. Further work (includingkinetic studies) is required to resolve this apparent inconsistency.

Mui&s. For ~S s~dy, the liwidus tempera~e was bounded by performing 24-hem isothe~lholds (as required) for the glass melts at 900”C, 950”C, 1000”C, and 105O”C. X-ray diffraction wasused to detect crystallization, in this case Trevorite. For the 22 wt% and 26 w&%Purex glasses, nocrystals were detected in the bulk at 900”C or at the top surface of the glasses. For the 30 WW Purexglasses, crystals were evident at temperatures higher than 900”C, but at 1000”C they were below theXRD detection limit. Given the fact that liquidus temperatures were only approximated, the 30 wt%loading of Purex may be near or at the edge of acceptability for liquidus. A small amount of surfacecrystallization (after the isothermal hold at 900”C) was evident on the glass surface near the center of

the crucible for four of the 30 wt% Purex glasses. The crystals detected were Trevorite. For HMglasses, no crystals were detected in the bulk or on the surface after 24 hours at 900”C.

Viscositv. The melt viscosities for 11 of these 23 glasses were measured and predictions reported at1150°C (nominal temperature of the glass within the DWPF melter). For the Purex containing glasses,the measured viscosities were within the DWPF range of 20 to 100 poise for the 22 wt% and 26 wt%Purex glasses. However, the 30 v&ZoPurex glasses had viscosities that were very near the lower limitof 20 poise, and consequently, may not be acceptable from an operations perspective. Although theHM sludge glass measured (lOwt% PHA) had a viscosity of -90 poise, the HM glasses at 7wt% PHAare predicted to be higher than the 100 poise limit for DWPF.

Limitations. All of the conclusions are provided based on the scope of the current work. Onelimitation of this scope, based upon schedule and budget, was the absence of any investigation ofkinetic effects. Thus, one can not rule out that amorphous phase separation occurs with centerlinecooling, for example. A second limitation was the restriction on independent variation of chemicalconstituents. In a major variability study, ranges are established for each element, and a statisticallydesigned set of glasses identified which not only covers a larger region of compositional space, butalso provides the potential for revealing trends in the properties over linear variations of elementalconcentrations. A third limitation was that only approximate measurements of the liquidustemperatures were made. A fourth limitation was that a thorough search (beyond scanning electronmicroscopy) for phase separation was not conducted. This type of investigation requires considerableefforts using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and other high resolution techniques. Finally,although the strategy was that HM and Purex containing glasses would cover the extremes, no Blendsludge glasses were fabricated to verify this.

INTRODUCTIONOne of the Alternative Salt Disposition Flowsheets being considered would require that the DefenseWaste Processing Facility (DWPF) vitrify a coupled feed containing High Level Waste (HLW) andPrecipitate Hydrolysis Aqueous (PHA). A Technical Task Request (TTR) [1] was received by theSavannah River Technology Center (SRTC) requesting that a glass variability study be conducted toexplore the processability and product quality of the glass composition region for this alternative(Small Tank TPB Precipitation) to the In-Tank Precipitation (ITT) Process. A Task Technical andQuality Assurance (’IT&QA) plan [2] was issued by SRTC in response to the Till. The objective ofthis task was to obtain information on the feasibility of incorporating anticipated levels of PHA intoDWPF glass with and without doubling the nominal levels of monosodium titanate (MST). The studyprogressed through four phases of investigation, the detailed results of which have each been issued intechnical reports (see references [3] through [6]). The purpose of this final report is’to consolidate theresults of these four phases and provide overall conclusions.

Table 1 provides a general overview of the glass compositions that were batched, fabricated, and testedas part of this study. The glasses were selected from a set of candidate glasses that involved threesludge types: Purex, HM, and Blend; covered sludge loadings (in the glass) of 22, 26, and 30 oxideweight percent (wt%); utilized PHA loadings (in the glass) of 7, 10, and 13 oxide wt90; and includedMST concentrations (in the glass) at 1.25 and 2.5 wt%. For each composition, the remainder of theglass consisted of Frit 202. The goal of using Purex sludge as the major sludge type with only a fewglasses containing HM was realized. However, no glasses were fabricated using the Blend sludge (asludge representing the combination of HM and Purex). In all likelihood, DWPF macrobatches will beblends of tanks containing various wastekludge types.

The primary property of interest in this study was the durability (as measured by the 7-day ProductConsistency TesL PCT [7]) of the test glasses: The PCT is the recognized standard for dete~ning thedurability of vitrified HLW, and the Environmental Assessment (EA) glass is the reference standardfor assessing acceptable durability determined using the PCT.l The measurement of durability wasconducted to the specifications of the PCT Method A of ASTM C1285 for each and every glass of thisstudy. (See the analytical plan [8] and the individual phase reports, [3] through [6], for details.)

Processing properties of interest for these glasses included viscosity at 1150”C and liquidustemperature. Methods used to complete these two types of measurements did not follow standardASTM procedures. However, viscosity was measured at SRTC using a Harrop viscometer [9] that hasyielded good results [10]. The standard ASTM procedure for measuring liquidus temperature, TL,usesa gradient furnace. Since no such capability exists at SRTC, it was beyond the scope of this study topursue this process for obtaining T~ measurements. To gain insight into this important processablilityproperty for the PHA glasses, au attempt was made to obtain an upper bound on the TL’s usingisothermal holds at 900, 950, 1000, and 105O”C and (non-quantitative) XRD evaluations (with asensitivity of - 0.7 to 1 wt% for crystalline Trevorite in the glass). The results from thesemeasurements are presented in this final report (the reports for the individual phases ([3], [4], [5], and[6]) provide greater detail).

In the report for each phase of this study, comparisons were provided between

● the measured and target compositions of the test glasses and

● the property measurements and their predictions derived from models that are used by theDefense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) as part of its Product Composition ControlSystem (PCCS). These models relate processability and product quality (e.g., viscosity,TL, and durability) to glass composition.

These comparisons have been consolidated and provided in the sections that follow.

RESULTSAND DISCUSSIONThe composition and property measurements of the glasses comprising the four phases of the PHAstudy were conducted in parallel with glasses from the corresponding phases of the other ITPreplacement alternative, Crystalline Silicotitanate. This second study was designated as the CST study(references [11], [12], [13], and [14] provide the reports for the four phases of this study). Conductingthe two studies in parallel helped to ensure that the CST and PHA glasses were fabricated,characterized, and analyzed under very similar conditions. For a full description of the analytical plansor of the review of the measurement data, see the individual reports for the phases of the PHA study[3]-[6].

Target and Measured Chemical CompositionsTable A.1 in the Appendix provides the target oxide compositions for each of the PHA glassesprepared using Purex sludge. Table A.2 in the Appendix provides the target oxide compositions forthe three PHA glasses prepared using HM sludge.

Measurements of the compositions of the test glasses were conducted by the SRTC-Mobile Laboratory(SRTC-ML) or by the Analytical Development Section (ADS) of SRTC. Standards were includedwith the test glasses and bias-corrections were conducted for many of these measurements. Details areprovided in the individual phase reports. The target, measured, and bias-corrected compositions of theglasses tested as part of this study are provided in Table A.3 of the Appendix. In most instances, theproperty predictions were essentially insensitive to’ the way the compositions of these glasses wererepresented (i.e., whether by the targeted, measured, or bias-corrected measurements). In certaininstances discrepancies between target and measured compositions were investigated to gain insightinto the batching andlor targeting processes.

One such discrepancy found during Phase 2 (glasses pha13-phal 8) involving the components of PHAsuggested a batching error centered on the use of anhydrous sodium borate versus hydrated sodiumborate. Although the problem existed in all six Phase 2 glasses, those at the lowest levels of PHA (i.e.,phal 3 and pha16) were least affected. The other four glasses were re-batched as part of Phase 4 (i.e.,glasses pha14c, pha15c, pha17c, and phal 8c) of this study. Table A.3 contains the results for all of thePHA glasses, but the original glasses: pha14, pha15, pha17, and phal 8 are excluded from the otheranalyses presented in this summary report. For full discussion of this discrepancy see reference [4],and for a discussion of the re-batched results see reference [6]. Exhibit A. 1 in the Appendix providesplots of the compositions (target, measured, and bias corrected) of these glasses by oxide.

Another discrepancy, discovered during Phases 1 and 2, was the factor used to account for the MST

components in the final glass product. This problem revealed itself in compositions that failed to meet

the desired TiOz targets and led to a re-evaluation of MST, a source of Ti02 in the glass. A subsequentanalysis of MST revealed a larger than expected moisture content. The problem was corrected forPhase 3, and additional glasses (phal lc, pha12c, pha17c, and pha18c designated in Phase 4 with a “c”suffix, see Table 1) from the first two phases were introduced into Phase 4. The T102 levels were met .for Phases 3 and 4.

An additional comment about this exhibit and table is worth mentioning. The sum of oxides for aI1ofthese glasses fell within the interval of 95 to 105 wt%, a measure of the quality of the analyticalresults.

PCT ResultsAll of the PHA glasses, after being batched and fabricated, were subjected to the 7-day ProductConsistency Test (PCT) as an assessment of their durabilities [7]. More specifically, Method A ofPCT (ASTM C1285) was used for these measurements. Durability is the critical product qualitymetric for vitrified nuclear waste. The PCT responses (for four elements: boron, silicon, sodium, andlithium) were normalized to the units of grams-per-liter (g/L) using the measured, measured bias-corrected, and target compositions. In addition to the PHA test glasses, the Environmental Assessment(EA) glass and the ARM glass were subjected to the PCT. The individual phase reports provide thedetails of the analytical plan and resulting data supporting these tests. The results from these tests aresummarized in Table A.4 of the Appendix.

As seen in Table A.4, the durabilities for the PHA glasses are much better than those of EA samples.Figure 1 provides an opportunity for a closer look at these results using measured and bias-correctedcompositions. Figure 1 is a plot of the DWPF model that relates the common logarithm of thenormalized PCT (in this case for B) to a linear function of a free energy of hydration term (AGP,kcal/100g glass) derived from the glass (measured and bias-corrected) compositions [15]. Predictionlimits (at 95% confidence) for an individual (new) PCT result are also plotted around this linear fit.The PCT results for EA (shown as a diamond), ARM (shown as a “z”), and the PHA glasses (eachshown as an “x”) are presented on this plot. Note that the PHA results reveal acceptable andpredictable PCTS. Figure 2 provides a plot of the boron results based upon target compositions, whichshows a similar pattern of behavior. Exhibit A2 in the Appendix provides similar plots of the PHAdurability measurements versus the DWPF durability models for B, Si, Na, and Li. The behaviors seenin the plots for Si, Na, and Li are similar to that demonstrated by the B results: acceptable andpredictable durabilities.

Viscosity at 1150°CViscosity measurements were made on several of these PHA glasses at SRTC using a Harrop, high-temperature viscometer [9]. The viscosity (in Poise) of each of these glasses at 1150°C was estimatedfrom a Fulcher equation fitted to a set of viscosity measurements taken over an appropriate range oftemperatures. The functional form of the (three-parameter) Fulcher equation (expressed in Poise) usedto fit these data is given by equation (l):

lnfi=A+(T~C)(1)

where A, B, and C represent the parameters of the model that were determined from the availablemeasurements (represented by ‘?l, expressed in Poise) at various temperatures (represented by T). The

fitted model was then used to predict the viscosity of the given glass at 1150°C.

Although no definitive error analysis has been completed on the use of the Harrop viscometer, SRTChas conducted several sets of viscosity measurements using this viscorneter with good results [10].Viscosity measurements were not conducted for all of these PHA glasses. Table 2 provides the resultsthat were obtained as part of this study.

For the Purex glasses, the measured viscosities were within the DWPF range of 20 to 100 poise for the22 wt% and 26 wt% Purex loadings. For these glasses, the measured viscosities ranged from 28 to 53poise, values that are much lower than current operations. The measured viscosity of glass pha12c isonly 28 poise and is approaching the lower limit for viscosity. The results show, as expeeted, that theviscosity values decrease as the PHA concentration in the glass is increased.

For the 30 wt% Purex glasses at high PHA loadings, the measured viscosities were very near the lowerlimit of 20 poise and, consequently, may not be acceptable fi-oman operations perspective. Althoughthe HM sludge glass (pha32) had a measured viscosity of -90 poise at 10 wt% PHA, the HM glasses at7 WMO PHA are predicted to be - 120 poise, a value that is significantly higher than the 100 poiseupper limit for DWPF.

There are several interesting trends observed in these data. Whether one uses the target, measured, orbias-corrected measured compositions to predict viscosities using the current model, the predictedviscosities are almost always higher than the viscosities determined born measurements for the glassesbatched using Purex sludge. This possible overprediction also occurs for the glasses made using HMsludge.

Liquidus Temperature (T~)The standard ASTM procedure for measuring liquidus temperature uses a gradient furnace. Theequipment for determining liquidus temperature by this method is being installed and tested withbSRTC in a clean laboratory. Due to the presence of depleted uranium in the glass samples (as well asthe early stage of equipment setup), this method for liquidus determination was not available at SRTCfor these analyses. A decision was therefore made to perform isothermal holds using reasonablequantities of the glass to bound the liquidus temperature.

XRD was selected as the method of detection for crystal formation in the glasses after an isothermalhold. It is estimated that the sensitivity of XRD (non-quantitative) is -0.7 to 1 wt% for a crystallinephase (in this case, Trevorite [16]). Therefore, for this type of measurement, absence of detection of acrystalline phase was evidence that the Iiquidus temperature is less than the temperature of thatisothermal hold. On the other hand, detection of Trevorite (or any other primary crystalline phase)indicates that the Iiquidus temperature is higher than the temperature of the isothermal hold. Thebounds on the Iiquidus temperatures for these PHA glasses, estimated to the detection capabilities ofXRD, are given in Table 3. The model predictions for TL based upon target, measured, and bias-corrected compositions are also provided in this table.

For the 22 wt% and 26 wt% Purex glasses, no crystals were detected in the bulk of the glasses at900°C. For the 30 wt% Purex glasses; crystals were evident at temperatures higher than 900:C, but at1000”C they were below the XRD detection limit. Given the fact that Iiquidus temperatures were onlyapproximated, the 30 wt% loading of Purex may be near or at the edge of acceptability for liquidus.For HM glasses, no crystals were detected in the bulk after 24 hours at 900°C. Thus, theseapproximate bounding measurements of liquidus temperature suggest that the liquidus constraint(-1025°C [17]) can be met for these Purex and HM glasses.

Surface CrystallizationFor Iiquidus measurements, crystal formation only in the interior or bulk glass region is considered.Therefore; samples submitted for XRD analysis were bulk samples. However, crystals can format theinterface of the glass and the crucible and/or the glass and air. For completeness, the detection of thesesurface crystals on the top of the glass is provided in Table 4 as a function of temperature.

The crystals observed were located on the top glass surface at the center of the crucible. The chemicalcomposition of the surface crystals was determined by EDS and is consistent with the Trevorite(NiFe20,J crystal structure, Trevorite has also been observed during previous studies on these types ofsystems. The chemical composition indicates that other cations are substituted into the crystalstructure in small amounts and these include Ti, Cr, and Mn.

Phase SeparationThe formation of separate amorphous phases in glass is referred to as amorphous phase separation orinhomogeneity. Crystal formation, as determined by liquidus temperature measurements, on the otherhand may indicate a “separation of phases,” but reflects crystalline particles within the glass matrix.Amorphous phase separation is to be avoided since the models currently used to predict durability donot apply for glasses predicted to be phase separated. The property acceptance region, or PAR, limitfor the homogeneity constraint in the Product Composition Control System (PCCS) is nominally avalue of211 [17]. The limit for the measurement acceptance region, or MAR, for this property will beeven higher. In order to pass this constraint, the predicted homogeneity based upon the measuredcomposition must be greater than the MAR value. The homogeneity values calculated using thetarg~ted and measured-chemical compositions are all well below- the PAR value.provided in Table 5.

The homogeneity constraint was developed for glasses that do contain PHA. Therefore, thepredictability of phase separation by this model should be applicable. It turns out that 17 of the 23PHA glasses failed to meet this homogeneity constraint. A significant search for phase separation inthese glasses was beyond the scope of work for”this task. Therefore, it is unclear whether phaseseparation has occurred, or would occur upon center-line cooling, in these glasses. On the other hand,all of the PCT results are acceptable and predictable and the results shown in Figure 5 suggest nodependence of durability on the homogeneity value for these glasses.

Further work (including kinetic studies) would be required to resolve this apparent inconsistency.

CONCLUSIONSThis report provides a summary of the results obtained for a limited variability study for glassescontaining PHA, MST, and either simulated Purex or HM sludge. Twenty glasses containing Purexsludge and three glasses containing HM sludge were fabricated and tested. The fabricated glasses weretested for durability using the PCT and characterized by measuring the melt viscosity and anapproximate, bounding liquidus temperature. The current models used by DWPF for predictingdurability, viscosity, and Iiquidus temperature were applied to all 23 glasses. The goal of this workwas to identify any major problems from a glass perspective that could potentially preclude the use ofhigher levels of PHA and MST at DWPF.

The selection of Purex sludge for the majority of the glasses fabricated in this study was based on theknowledge that this sludge type has historically been the most difficult sludge to incorporate into glass.Depleted uranium was introduced into the simulated Purex sludge to better represent the uraniumcontent (- 9 wt% oxide) of actual sludge.

One of the major concerns for this study was the effect of higher levels of PHA in the glass. The planfor this work was to vary the PHA level from 7 to 13 W% oxide, which can be compared to theexpected/design basis of 6 to 8 wt~o oxide. Another concern was the potential for higher levels oftitanium (from MST) into the glass. The current limit for Ti02 in the DWPF glass is 1 wt~o whereasthe scope of this work varied the Ti02 level from 1 to 2 wt%.

Frit 202 was used in this study and was the frit originally designed for coupled operations at DWPF.

As part of this study, the model predictions were made using targeted, measured, and bias-comectedmeasured compositions of the glasses. For glasses where there were no batching difficulties, it wasdemonstrated that the results were essentially insensitive to the type of composition used in thesemodels. This provides evidence that the glasses produced were close to the targeted compositions, andthat the analytical measurements were of high quality.

Glass Durability. All 23 glasses were very durable as measured by the PCT. The values ranged flom0.90 to 1.76@ for boron release for the Purex glasses and from 0.45 to 0.50 g/L for boron release forthe HM glasses. For comparison, the reference Environmental Assessment (EA) glass has a boron rateof 16.7 #L.

Model Prediction of Durability. The PCCS durability model prcdcted values for boron release thatwere all within the 95% prediction limits of the model.

Homogeneity. The durability model was developed for glasses that are not phase separated(amorphous) and this is controlled through application of a homogeneity discriminator. The majorityof the glasses (17 of the 23 glasses) failed this discrimination model. The PCT results for the glassesof this study (all of which were rapidly quenched) revealed that measured durability is not a functionof predicted phase separation based upon the current homogeneity model. Further work (includingkinetic studies) is required to resolve this apparent inconsistency.

Li@dus. For ~IS study, the Muidus temperaturewas bounded W performing24-hour isothermalholds (as required) for the glass melts at 900”C, 950”C, 1000”C, and 105O”C. X-ray diffraction wasused to detect crystallization, in this case Trevorite. For the 22 wt%oand 26 wt$ZoPurex glasses, nocrystals were detected in the bulk at 900”C or at the top surface of the glasses. For the 30 wt% Purexgla&es, crystals were evident at temperatures higher than 900”C, but at 1000”C they were below theXRD detection limit. Given the fact that liquidus temperatures were only approximated, the 30 wt%loadlng of Purex may be near or at the edge of acceptability for liquidus. A small amount of surfacecrystallization (after the isothermal hold at 900”C) was evident on the glass surface near the center ofthe crucible for four of the 30 wt% Purex glasses. The crystals detected were Trevorite. For HMglasses, no crystals were detected in the bulk or on the surface after 24 hours at 900”C.”

Viscositv. Themelt viscosities for 11 of these 23glasses were measnred andpredictions reported atl1500C(nomind temperatme of theglass witiintie DWPFmelter). Forthel%rex containing glasses,themeasured viscosities were within the DWPFrangeof2Oto 100poise forthe22wt% and26wt%Purex glasses. However, the 30 wt% Purex glasses had viscosities that were very near the lower limitof 20 poise, and consequently, may not be acceptable from an operations perspective. Although theHM sludge glass measured (lOwt% PHA) had a viscosity of -90 poise, the HM glasses at 7wt% PHAare predicted to be higher than the 100 poise limit for DWPF.

Lhnitations. All of the conclusions are provided based on the scope of the current work. Onelimitation of this scope, based upon schedule and budget, was the absence of any investigation ofkinetic effects. Thus, one can not rule out that amorphous phase separation occurs with centerlinecooling, for example. A second limitation was the restriction on independent variation of chemicalconstituents. In a major variability study, ranges are established for each element, and a statisticallydesigned set of glasses identified which not only covers a larger region of compositional space, butalso provides the potential for revealing trends in the properties over linear variations of elementalconcentrations. A third limitation was that only approximate measurements of the liquidustemperatures were made. A fourth limitation was that a thorough search (beyond scanning electronmicroscopy) for phase separation was not conducted. This type of investigation requires considerableefforts using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and other high-resolution techniques. Finally,although the strategy was that HM and Purex containing glasses would cover the extremes, no Blendsludge glasses were fabricated to verify this.
