Use of a Russian Developed Technology (Gubka) for the Treatment of Laboratory & Other DOE Generated Waste.


EMSL Project ID
2115

Abstract

The purpose of this project is to determine practical parameters for the routine treatment of laboratory and other DOE generated liquid waste. The objectives will be to determine the rates at which Gubka will accelerate the evaporation of liquid waste and determine optimium operational parameters for the Gubka material. All of the instruments utilized will be standard laboratory equipment including temperature measuring devices, air flow rates and apparatus needed for mass balance measurements to determine evaporation of waste rates.
