Development of Prototype Fiberglass Container for DOT Type A and Type B Radioactive Waste. Quarterly Technical Progress Report No. 1, August 14-November 17, 1984

摘要

KLM will design, fabricate, and test a DOT Type A box container of a nominal 100-125 ft exp 3 size; design, fabricate, and test a number of DOT Type B waste containers including a nominal 55-gallon drum and large box (100-125 ft exp 3 ); develop a waste container design compatible with waste form and burial environments featuring both permanent and reopenable container seals which are compatible with waste handling equipment and practices and which comply with or exceed all DOE, NRC, and DOT criteria and regulations; and, assure cost-effective design and manufacturing features while providing superior performance, chemical resistance, earth burial effects, radiation resistance, and overall strength. The technical progress of the project is reviewed. (ERA citation 10:012431)
