Common use of Solid Radwaste Systems (SRS) Clause in Contracts

Solid Radwaste Systems (SRS). The solid radwaste system (SRS) for each Unit handles radioactive waste consisting of trash, spent ion exchange resins, waste evaporator concentrates, chemical drain tank effluents, crud tank effluents, used filter cartridges, contaminated steam generator blowdown demineralizer resins and contaminated condensate polishing demineralizer resins. The wastes are solidified in the waste solidification system and stored in a shielded storage location while awaiting shipment off site. Spent resin from the fuel pool cooling system, liquid radwaste system ion exchangers, the chemical and volume control system preholdup ion exchanger, deborating ion exchanger and purification ion exchangers are sluiced to the high activity spent resin tank or the low activity spent resin tank. The spent resin tanks hold the resin until it is ready to be sluiced to the waste feed tank. Radwaste from the crud tank, chemical drain tanks, spent resin tanks, and concentrates from the liquid radwaste system are piped directly into the waste feed tank. Chemicals are added to the waste feed tank to adjust pH by the chemical addition storage and feed subsystem. The cement handling and storage subsystem delivers cement to the radwaste/cement mixing and filling subsystem. The dry additive storage and feed subsystem delivers the dry chemical additive to the radwaste/cement mixing and filling subsystem. The radwaste/cement mixing and filling subsystem delivers radwaste from the waste feed tank, mixes the radwaste with cement and dry chemical additives and discharges the mixture to either a 55 gallon drum or disposable liner. This subsystem also provides for capping, decontamination, swiping and placement of solidified waste containers in a shielded storage location in the Unit, transportation and temporary storage of the solidified waste containers. Spent filter cartridges are transported to the solidification system disposable liner or drum via a monorail, and remotely placed in a filter basket inside the container. The filter basket holds the filter cartridge in place while cement is poured around the filter cartridge encapsulating it. Each system consists of a low activity spent resin tank and associated piping, a high activity spent resin tank and associated piping, a resin transfer/dewatering pump, a waste feed pump, a waste feed tank, a chemical addition pump, a chemical addition tank, a waste/cement processor, a 30-ton capacity overhead bridge crane, a container transfer cart and related switches, valves and instrumentation. The system also includes related radiation monitoring equipment.
