Description
Abstract:Nonradioactive hazardous metal components of the DWPF waste streams are subject to regulation under RCRA. Vitrified material also falls under this regulation, potentially impacting disposal of glass generated during the DWPF Startup Test Program. RCRA-approved leach tests were performed on simulated DWPF waste glass to determine whether the glass should be classified as hazardous. The results of the tests verified that DWPF waste glass is not a hazardous waste.
