GAO: Grouting Hanford tank waste could cost more than $1.1B

Grouting Hanford’s low-level radioactive liquid tank waste could cost between $480 million and $1.1 billion, according to a report by the Government Accountability Office, which has repeatedly found that grouting (immobilizing waste in a concrete-like mixture) can accelerate cleanup at the Hanford Site and save billions of dollars when compared to mixing the waste with molten glass through the vitrification process.

The Tritium Extraction Facility at the Institut LAUE - LANGEVIN, GRENOBLE, FRANCE, is the first facility combining the extraction of tritium and hydrogen from heavy water. This Tritium Extraction facility was built in 1970, and continues to operate entirely satisfactorily. Its staff have accumulated considerable experience, which is summarized in this paper.
