Executive Summary This report summarizes progress made in evaluating mechanisms by which flammable gases are generated in Hanford double-shell tank wastes, based on the results of laboratory tests using simulated waste mixtures. Work described in this report was conducted at Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL)(a) for the Flammable Gas Safety Project, the purpose of which is to develop information needed to support Westinghouse Hanford Company (WHC) in their efforts to ensure the safe interim storage of wastes at the Hanford Site. This work is related to gas generation studies being performed at Georgia Institute of Technology (GIT), under subcontract to PNL, using simulated wastes, and to studies being performed at WHC using actual wastes. Described in this report are 1) the results of tests to evaluate the rates of thermal and combined thermal and radiolytic reactions involving flammable gases, and 2) the results of experiments intended to compare gas generation rates in a homogeneous liquid with those in a heterogeneous slurry. Flam• mable gases generated by the radiolysis of water and by the thermal and radiolytic decomposition of organic waste constituents may themselves participate in further reactions.

    W. R. Grace & Co.-Conn. Sodium Aluminate Product Stewardship Summary I. Overview W. R. Grace & Co.-Conn manufactures a limited amount of aqueous sodium aluminate for commercial customers and does not directly supply to the public. Sodium aluminate is produced when aluminum metal reacts with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, creating a strong alkaline or basic liquid. Sodium aluminate, primarily in the liquid form, is used in a variety of controlled industrial uses. II. Chemical Identity – Physical and Chemical Properties Chemical Identity: CAS# (EC inventory): 1302-42-7 CAS Name: Sodium aluminate EC Number: 215-100-1 EC Name: Sodium aluminate RTECS Number: BD1600000 Molecular Formula: NaAlO2 Molecular Weight: 81.9701 Synonyms: aluminum sodium oxide, sodium aluminum dioxide, aluminum sodium dioxide Physical and Chemical Properties: Sodium aluminate is an inorganic chemical that in pure form is a white, hygroscopic and water soluble powder. It may generate heat when mixed with water and reacts exothermically with acids. It is corrosive in both solid and liquid forms. It is non-combustible however, if heated to decomposition it may produce corrosive and or toxic fumes. Most sodium aluminate placed onto the market is the aqueous form with typical concentrations of 25-50%. 1 grace.com Talent | Technology | Trust™ III. Applications Sodium aluminate has broad range of uses. Major applications include use in water and wastewater treatment applications, in papermaking, and as a raw material intermediate in commercial industries. In municipal drinking water and waste water treatment systems it serves as a clarifying aid and assists in the removal of phosphates and fluorides in municipal and industrial wastewater plants.

We chose cadmium tungstate as a base material for doping and nanostructure development due to its excellent inherent photoluminescence (PL) property, and chemical and thermal stability including non-hydroscopicity. Experimental results revealed that doping with Li+, B3+ and Bi3+ resulted in appreciably reduced grain size and increased density leading to enhanced optical transmittance. Further analyses indicated that PL output changed significantly with the introduction of dopants. The relationships between doping, microstructure, and PL were discussed. r 2006 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract Lithium-air batteries performance faces a challenge on the design and development of a functional cathode. Manganese dioxide is a promising material for the air cathode, due to its low cost and ability to catalyse oxygen reactions. In its preparation residues are generated that need to be treated before discard. The present study aims to prepare the manganese dioxide through a precipitation/annealing method, using as raw-material manganese based waste from electrodeposition baths utilized in a previous study, in order to synthesize novel MnOx based electrodes. Key words: Manganese dioxide, Materials engineering, Lithium-air batteries. Introduction stainless-steel net surface and let to dry in oven. The Electrification of automotive fleet, aligned with the prepared electrode was cycled in lithium-oxygen battery, development of sustainable sources of primary energy, and the result is presented on Image 1. rises as a solution to reduce worldwide carbon dioxide emissions without reducing vehicle usage. However, state-of-the-art lithium-ion technology cannot provide a range high enough to fully replace internal combustion engines for batteries. Lithium-air batteries have a theoretical gravimetric energy (mWh/gactive material) 5 to 8 times higher than that of conventional lithium-ion. The system is based on the reaction between lithium and oxygen to produce a lithium oxide. The technology, however, faces some challenges, among which are large overpotential and low reversibility. In order to overcome these issues, different materials have been studied as catalysts for charge and discharge reactions¹.
