Methylmercury Retention Evaluation to Support Tank 50 and Saltstone Waste Acceptance Criteria: Parts 2 and 3

The objective of this work was to provide a technical basis for the organic mercury waste acceptance criterion (WAC) for Tank 50 salt solution. The current mercury WAC for Tank 50 solution is 325 mg/L as Hg regardless of the form of mercury, which is about three times higher than any total Hg concentrations measured to date in Tank 50 solution. To date, the highest total Hg and MeHg + concentrations in the Tank 50 solution were 105 and 62 mg/L, respectively.

Tank 50 Simulant Grout and Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) Results for Methyl Mercury Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) Limit

Testing of simulated Tank 50 salt solution grout, spiked with methyl mercury (MeHg) and ionic mercury, used the Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (TCLP) to evaluate leaching performance with respect to Hg and the Waste Acceptance Criteria (WAC) limits for the Saltstone Production Facility (SPF). This report describes the test parameters for simulant preparation and confirmatory analysis, grout preparation, TCLP leach testing and subsequent leachate analyses. These scoping tests were designed to provide an initial evaluation of the effect of increased MeHg and ionic Hg on the TCLP and were requested by Savannah River Remediation LLC (SRR) through a Technical Assistance Request (TAR). It is expected that this preliminary testing will likely lead to future, more detailed, testing involving the mercury (Hg) WAC and Hg limits with respect to the Tank 50 TCLP for mercury. The TCLP concentrations for total Hg have approached 0.06 mg/L in recent years for Tank 50 radioactive solutions containing up to 105 mg/L of Hg in the form of ionic (Hg(I/II), elemental (Hg(0)) and organo-mercury such as MeHg. In discussions with SRR personnel, it was decided for this non-baseline work to target Hg spike concentrations, using predominately MeHg, in the range of 150 to 350 mg/L total Hg to investigate corresponding Hg TCLP leaching behaviors.

Time Dependence of Methane Generation Rates from Saltstone

This report documents the tests performed to address the requirements listed in the Technical Request, which resulted in a Task Technical & Quality Assurance Plan (TTQAP) and a Run Plan to obtain the required information. The research expands previous scoping work to better understand methane generation in the Saltstone Disposal Facility (SDF). That scoping work demonstrated that methane is produced when sulfide-containing material is added to methylmercury (MeHg), which is found in the SDF Tank 50 feed waste. When Tank 50 waste is combined with grout premix solids dry feed ingredients of cement, slag cement, and fly ash, sulfides are released from the slag cement component of the premix. The prior testing results showed that while the concentration of total mercury was not affected in the pH 14 waste, the MeHg likely reacted with the sulfide contained in the slag. The scoping tests were performed in sealed reactors and thus, methane generation was not measured continuously; rather, it was measured after one hour and after 24 hours. After 24 hours, a large percentage of the MeHg was converted to methane, but after 1 hour only a small percentage of methane was released. It is noteworthy that the methane generation rate (MGR) was greater at the one-hour measurement. The data compiled from the scoping work needed to be expanded to better understand the generation of methane released from grout mixed with Tank 50 waste. This expanded study developed a more extensive knowledge of how and when methane is generated to inform the Documented Safety Analysis (DSA) of the SDF. As such, employing 8 sealed reactors, the methane generation time periods were extended to 2, 4, 6, 18, 30, 48, 72, and 96 hours (4 days). Results are documented herein to determine the capacity for MeHg, contained within Tank 50 salt solution (T50SS) simulant, to produce methane when mixed with saltstone dry feed ingredients, i.e., individual components (cement, slag, and fly ash) or a combination of those components.

Evaluation of New Additions to OLI Software in Predicting Mercuric and Mercurous Species in Liquid Waste Operations

Speciation of mercury during the pretreatment steps of tank waste processing is critical to successful mercury removal prior to vitrification during Liquid Waste Operations (LWO) at SRS. OLI software has been used to predict mercury speciation and activity throughout LWO. The OLI software operates based on a thermodynamic framework called the Mixed Solvent Electrolyte (MSE) framework. The MSE framework allows prediction in theoretically infinitely dilute to concentrated mixtures (e.g., purely solute solutions). Before modification to the MSE framework databanks, certain critical mercury species were missing in the MSE databank, and some thermodynamic data needed to be updated for the OLI software to accurately predict mercury chemical species in SRS waste tanks. To better reflect streams across LWO, new mercury species were integrated into the MSE database. To evaluate the changes to the OLI MSE framework per the Technical Task Request (TTR) and the Task Technical and Quality Assurance Plan (TTQAP), waste stream compositions from Tanks 38, 43, and Tank 50 decontaminated salt solution (DSS) were used as model inputs. Models were developed and executed using both the old and new databases. Compositional analyses from caustic Tank 50 DSS and caustic Tanks 38 and 43 were used as the input streams. These streams represent the most comprehensive chemical data sets where both mercury and tank constituents were measured together. Results for Tank 50 DSS predict HgO as the predominant species in both databases. Both methyl and dimethyl Hg species are present when the new database is ‘on’ and are not predicted with the new database turned ‘off’. The new database predicts a greater amount of HgO and a greater fraction of it in the solid phase. Pourbaix diagrams (potential vs. pH) generated for each Tank 50 DSS were identical regardless of which database was used. Elemental Hg and HgO were predicted in the water stable region under basic conditions. Tanks 38 and 43 follow similar trends as the Tank 50 DSS models. Unlike Tanks 38 and 50 DSS, the Tank 43 Pourbaix plot shows a region of stability for an aqueous HgOHCO3 - species between approximately pH 7-11. In all streams, when MeHg+ is included in the inputs, the new database predicts aqueous MeHgOH as the dominant species. If elemental or dimethyl mercury is in the waste stream, the new database model predicts they are unchanged and remain in those states and quantities. Additionally, the total mercury values are reported for both the measured input data and the OLI output data for all considered tanks. The summary indicates that the percentage error between the measured and calculated values is less than 1% in all cases The reconciliations and generation of the Pourbaix diagrams for Tank 50 DSS took approximately ten times longer with the new database ‘on’. In addition, over the course of that time, models with the new database ‘on’ were more likely to crash or display an error. Some modest performance improvements were noted when modeling with an i7 processor versus an i5. An example error is found in Appendix A. Furthermore, Appendix B provides V&V for two chemical systems analyzed with the OLI software, results were satisfactory. It is recommended to utilize the new databases (i.e., HCO.ddb and SR-Hg.ddb) in future Savannah River Mission Completion applications of OLI to represent pseudo steady-state. Furthermore, the integration and utilization of the new databases (i.e., HCO.ddb and SR-Hg.ddb) in modeling applications (e.g., Aspen) is also recommended.
