Operation of the low activity waste vitrification facility (LAW) part of the Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) at Hanford will generate several solid secondary waste (SSW) streams including used process equipment, contaminated tools and instruments, decontamination wastes, highefficiency particulate air filters (HEPA), carbon absorption beds, silver mordenite iodine sorbent beds, and spent ion exchange resins (IXr), all of which are to be disposed of in the Integrated Disposal Facility (IDF). The baseline treatment method in the IDF Performance Assessment (PA) for SSW is solidification/stabilization using cementitious material. The Hanford Mix 5 has been identified as the baseline grout for encapsulation of debris SSW (HEPA filters) and solidification/stabilization of non-debris SSW (carbon absorption beds, silver mordenite iodine sorbent beds, and spent ion exchange resins). Hanford Mix 5 is a blend of ASTM (C150-18) Type I-II cement (OPC), Class F fly ash (FA), water, BASF Pozzolith 80 and BASF Master Fiber M100 (fiber) that is currently used for disposal of debris in carbon steel containers (B25) in Hanford’s 200 West Area Low Level Waste Burial Ground trenches.
