Washing and Caustic Leaching of Hanford Tank Sludge: Results of FY 1998 Studies

Abstract

Sludge washing and parametric caustic leaching tests were performed on sludge samples from five Hanford's tanks: B-101, BX-110,BX112, C-102, and S-101. These studies examined the effects of both dilute hydroxide washing and caustic leaching on the composition of the residual sludge solids.
