Crevice corrosion affects most metals and alloys and is among the most damaging forms of
corrosion. Crevice geometries can be found on a wide range of structures and components …

Nuclear wastes are stored in large, underground carbon-steel storage tanks at the Hanford
site. Most of the liquid wastes are highly alkaline in nature, typically with pH values between …

Liquid radioactive waste stored in carbon steel double shell tanks (DSTs) at Hanford has a
comprehensive chemistry control program to prevent general corrosion, stress corrosion …

Nuclear wastes are stored in large, underground carbon steel storage tanks at the Hanford
site. Most of the liquid wastes are highly alkaline, typically with pH values between 12 and …

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY For FY18, Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) focused on
four main tasks in its study of corrosion of Hanford Double-Shell Tanks (DSTs). The New …

Corrosion control limits for High-Level Waste storage are being revisited to determine if a
ratio of inhibiting and aggressive species, the Pitting Factor, is applicable to predicting …

Millions of liters of liquid radioactive waste are stored in double shell tanks (DSTs) at
Hanford Site. The DSTs were constructed of carbon steel from 1968 to 1986 and have a …

At Savannah River Site, High-Level Waste is stored in below-grade carbon steel tanks. This
waste in part consists of sludge, salt cake, and/or supernate. Preparation of this waste for …

Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is a documented threat to the integrity of the radioactive
waste storage tanks at Hanford. An extensive amount of time and effort has been spent …

This paper presents the results of a laboratory investigation performed to evaluate the
impact of key Hanford tank waste chemical constituents on corrosion of Type 304L stainless …
