Description:The 40 selected papers summarize the findings to date accumulated by the US Department of Energy's Tanks Focus Area, three years after it was formed to identify technologies for disposing of the nearly hundred million gallons of radioactive sludge resulting from the production of nuclear weapons, and now stored in underground tanks in four sites across the country. They cover disposal strategies and technology needs, the characterization and retrieval of tank waste, pretreatment processes, immobilization processes and experience, and process control and monitoring technology. Among specific topics are results of collaboration between the US and Russia on high-level waste tank problems, qualification of the Raman analysis on the Hanford (Washington) tank waste, combining solvent extraction processes for actinide and fission product separations, immobilizing high- level radioactive sludges in iron phosphate glass, and an ultrasonic instrument for measuring the density and viscosity of tank waste.
