Synergy in Materials: Leveraging Phosphosilicate Waste Forms for Electrochemical Salt Waste

Here, waste forms containing glassy and crystalline phosphate and silicate phases were produced to immobilize salt waste simulants from pyroprocessing and characterized by using Raman spectroscopy, Mössbauer spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, heat capacity, and chemical durability measurements. In this work, a phosphosilicate waste form is presented to leverage the benefits of both borosilicate glasses and iron phosphate glasses. To improve waste loading, prior to immobilization, salt simulants were successfully dechlorinated using ammonium dihydrogen phosphate, mixed with a borosilicate frit (5–30 wt %) and Fe 2 O 3 , and vitrified. Additions of 2.5–15 wt % borosilicate glass (NBS3) improved normalized release rates for Cs relative to iron-phosphates without NBS3, resulting in chemical durabilities similar to high-level waste borosilicate glass reference materials. The release rates of the alkalis (i.e., Li, Na, K, Cs) were the lowest with the addition of 5 wt % NBS3. Although Sr was not specifically targeted in this study, evidence exists that it preferentially partitioned with Si to form an amorphous droplet phase within the iron phosphate glass matrix.
