Standard High Solids Vessel Design Newtonian Simulant Qualification

Abstract

The Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) is working to develop a Standard High Solids Vessel Design (SHSVD) process vessel. To support testing of this new design, WTP engineering staff requested that a Newtonian simulant be developed that would represent the Most Adverse Design Condition (MADC1, in development)[1] with respect to mixing performance as specified by WTP. The majority of the simulant requirements are specified in 24590-PTF-RPT-PE-16-001, Rev. 0,[2] and the basis for the simulant was provided in WTP-RPT-241, Rev. 0.[3] This document describes the simulant composition that will satisfy the basis requirement along with ancillary testing related to durability. The simulant recipe that meets these bases is also provided.
