From page 223...
... Chloride Volatility Treatment. A process for treating aluminum spent fuel that involves the reaction of the spent fuel with chlorine or HCT gas at elevated temperatures to produce volatile chlorides, which are subsequently recovered by scrubbing and fractional distillation.
From page 224...
... A process for treating aluminum spent fuel that involves dissolution of the fuel in acid along with depleted uranium to reduce the uranium-235 concentration to 20 percent or less by mass and vitrification of We resulting liquid waste stream.
From page 225...
... Glass Material Oxidation and Dissolution Treatment. A process for treating aluminum spent fuel that involves melting the spent fuel with depleted uranium, adding lead oxide to oxidize the metals, and then adding hit to make glass with a uranium-235 enrichment of 20 percent or less by mass.
From page 226...
... Melt and Dilute Treatment. A process for treating aluminum spent filet that involves melting the spent filet along with depleted uranium to produce an alloy that has a uran~um-235 enrichment of 20 percent or less by mass.
From page 227...
... Waste-Package Performance Criteria. The physical, chemical, and thermal characteristics Rat a waste package containing spent fifed or its treated equivalent must meet to be acceptable for shipment to and emplacement in a repository container.
