WHC -SD-CO18H-FDC-0O1, Rev. 2 ECN 119532 .j.. of 5

Description of Change:

Modify the Functional Design Criteria (FDC) for Project C-018H as follows:

ChangeNo. Section Chang~e/Justification (5/16/91)

1) Exec. CHANGE - Remove reference to PUREX for Interim Retention Basins.Sum. JUSTIFICATION - PUREX will not be operational until after Project

C-018H is on line. At that time, PUREX effluent PDD/AD willdirectly feed the C-018H treatment facility.

2) 1.1 CHANGE - Remove reference to PUREX for Interim Retention Basins(Project W-105) and scheduled operating periods.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 1. Also, scheduling is not afunctional requi rement.

3) 1.3 CHANGE - Remove reference to scheduled start-up.JUSTIFICATION - Scheduling is not a functional requirement.

4) 1.3 CHANGE - Remove reference to PUREX for Interim Retention Basins,modify basin capacity available, and remove reference to scheduledstart-up.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 1, the PUREX PDD/ASD effluentstreams are eliminated, thus the number of interim retentionbasins are reduced by one, and see Change No. 3.

5) 2.0 CHANGE - Remove reference to PUREX and scheduled operatingperiods. Add redundancy, surge tank capacity and recyclecapability to maintain TOE required.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No.'s 1 and 3. The facility designmust have the flexibility to include redundancy, surge tankcapacity and recycle capability to meet the overall TOE systemrequirement. Specifying redundancy, surge capacity, and recyclecapacity is too restrictive. The functional requirement is forthe design to meet the overall treatment system TOE.

6) 2.1 CHANGE - Modify reference list for Appendix D basis.JUSTIFICATION - The reference list reflects the latest guidancefrom Ecology. Changes to the list do not affect the functionalrequirements of the proposed treatment system. KEH and Ebascoevaluated changes and concurred that the process functionalrequirements are not impacted. The KEH and Ebasco evaluations areattached to Change Request HEC-CCB-151.

WHC-SD-C018H-FDC-0Oi, Rev. 2 ECN 119532 of 5

7) 2.6 CHANGE - Increase retention capacity period to 7.2 hours.JUSTIFICATION - 100% verification will be required to meetDelisting petition conditions. EPA-HQ meeting minutes datedNovember 1, 1990, "When the Hanford Site can prove that thetreatment system is able to treat a worst case feed, there may bea reduction in verification testing.", are attached to ChangeRequest HEC-CCB-151. The 72 hour period assumes that sufficienton-site analytical resources will be available. The cost impactfor increasing from 24 hour (648 Kg) to 72 hour (1,944 Kg)verification capacity is $1,400K (see estimate attached to ChangeRequest HEC-CCB-151).

8) 2.7 CHANGE - Modify operating staff reference.JUSTIFICATION - Changes to the number of operating staff reflect acorrection to Appendix F wherein addition errors were made.

9) 2.8 CHANGE - Call out independent operational capability for each unitprocess, HVAC control through the MCS and process equipmentcontrol through the MCS.JUSTIFICATION - "Independent operational capability" facilitatestrouble shooting, maintenance, and personnel safety. HVAC andprocess equipment control through the MCS is required for a self-functioning system. No cost impact to centralize controlfuncti onal requirements.

10) 3.2 CHANGE -,Remove reference to PUREX for Intirim.Retention Basins.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 1.

11) 3.10 CHANGE - Delete specific 4.5 feet instrumentation height call-out.JUSTIFICATION - The human factors analysis will dictate instrumentlayouts.

12) App. B CHANGE - Delete reference to single treatment train, permittingcomplication, and operating schedule.JUSTIFICATION - A value engineering exercise concluded that thestreams to be treated could be mixed within a single process trainand staging tank without further complicating the overallpermitting process and see Change No. 3. The CDR estimateincorporated this single process train.

13) Fig. B-i CHANGE - Modify diagram to single process train.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 12.

14) B-i CHANGE - Modify staging tank requirement wording to "shallconsider" and delete second bullet requiring staging of feed fromPUREX and 242-A without mixing.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No.'s 1 and 12. Also, the PUREXfacility will provide piping and staging capacity to the ETF,prior to PUREX becoming operational and sending effluent to theETF.

15) B-2 CHANGE - Delete redundancy requirement.

WHC-SD-CO18H-FDC-OO1, Rev. 2 ECN 119532 ... of 5

JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 5.

16) B-3 CHANGE - Delete 100% organic destruction & redundancy call-outs.JUSTIFICATION - The 100% destruction requirement was deleted to beconsistent with organic removal treatment targets cited inAppendix D. No cost impact results from this change. Also, seeChange No. 5.

17) B-4 CHANGE -Delete redundancy call-out.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 5.

18) B-5 CHANGE - Delete redundancy call-out.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 5.

19) B-6 CHANGE.- Delete redundancy call-out.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 5.

20) B-7 CHANGE - Delete redundancy call-out.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 5.

21) 8-8 CHANGE - Change retention requirement to 72 hours.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 7.

22) B-8 CHANGE - Ch 'ange retention requirement to 72 hours.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 7.

23) Tbl C-i CHANGE - Modify characterization table.JUSTIFICATION - Revised to be consistent with the stream specificreports.

24) App. D CHANGE - Incorporate NPDES (Appendix E) option.JUSTIFICATION - Appendix D now incorporates one set of treatmenttargets that allows either soil column or N.PDES river discharge.The Project cost estimates are based on soil column discharge. Aseparate alternate cost for a river discharge option will also beincluded.

25) Tbl D-1 CHANGE - Modify treatment target table.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 6.

26) App. E CHANGE - River discharge criteria incorporated into Appendix D.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 24.

27) App. F CHANGE - Redesignated Appendix F to E. Incorporate requirementsfor typical process instrumentation readout and installation.JUSTIFICATION - See Change No. 11.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This document provides the Functional Design Criteria (FOC) for

Project C-018H, the 242-A Evaporator and the Plutonium-Uranium Extraction

(PUREX) Plant Condensate Treatment Facility. This project will provide

collection, treatment and disposal systems for the 242-A Evaporator process

condensate (PC), and the combined PUREX Plant process condensate (P00)/ammonia

scrubber distillate (ASO) stream. The treatment and disposal systems

contained within the scope of the FDC will meet all applicable regulations,

including the requirements of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency

(EPA), the State of Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology), and the

U.S. Department of Energy (DOE).

The facilities provided 'by the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility

(Project W-105) and this project are required for the continued operation of

the 242-A Evaporator. The operation of the 242-A Evaporator is vital to

conducting the Hanford Site environmental restoration mission. It will not be

possible to support the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order

(known as the Tni-Party Agreement*) commitments if the evaporator remains in a

standby condition. In addition, this project will enable Hanford to treat

PUREX Plant POD and ASO effluents to further reduce the radionuclide and

chemical constituents in these streams prior to discharge.

*Ecology, EPA, and DOE, 1989, Hanford Federal Facility Agreement andConsent Order, Washington State Department of Ecology, U.S. EnvironmentalProtection Agency, and the U.S. Department of Energy, Olympia, Washington.

These criteria are coordinated with existing another new facilities

under an overall plan to stop discharges of contaminated liquids into the soil

column on the Hanford site. Specific criteria are presented for the

coordination of this project with the 200 Area Treated Effluent Disposal

System and the 242-A Evaporator Liquid Effluent Retention Facility.

1.0 INTRODUCTION

This document provides the Functional Design Criteria (FOC) forProject C-018H, the 242-A Evaporator and Plutonium-Uranium Extraction (PUREX)Plant Condensate Treatment Facility. The project will provide the facilitiesto treat and dispose of the 242-A Evaporator process condensate (PC), thePlutonium-Uranium Extraction (PUREX) Plant process condensate (PDD), and thePUREX Plant ammonia scrubber distillate (ASD).

1.1 Background

For the past 45 years, the Hanford Site has used the favorable sitecharacteristics of isolation, low precipitation, deep-water table, and soilion exchange properties to discharge large amounts of water containing lowlevels of radionuclides and stable chemicals to the soil column. The policyof the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) requires that the use of soil columnsto treat and retain suspended or dissolved radionucilides from liquid wastestreams be discontinued at the earliest date practicable in favor ofwastewater treatment and minimization. This policy is implemented throughDOE Orders, which are based on federal and state environmental regulations.

In March 1987, the U.S. Department of Energy-Richland Operations Office(DOE-RL) issued a document entitled Plan and Schedule to Discontinue Disposalof Contaminated Liquids into the Soil Column at the Hanford Site (Plan andSchedule) (OOE-RL 1987). The Plan and Schedule, and its annual updates,contain a strategy for implementing alternative, treatment and disposal systemsfor each of the 33 major waste streams discharged to the soil column. In thisstrategy, the wastestreams were prioritized into Phase I and Phase II. Thealternative treatment and disposal systems for Phase I streams have a higherpriority and are scheduled to be completed by June 1995. The Phase II streamsare to be addressed after the completion of the Phase I projects.

Projects to provide alternative treatment and disposal methods for thePhase I streams have been incorporated into the recently signed "Action Planfor Implementation of the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and ConsentOrder," an attachment to the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and ConsentOrder (Tni-Party Agreement) (Ecology et al. 1989).

The Plan and Schedule considered the 242-A Evaporator PC and the PUREXPlant POD and ASO streams to be Phase I streams and provided a schedule forthe implementation of alternative treatment and disposal methods. Funding forimplementation of the evaporator system was to be complete by June 1995 andfor the PUREX Plant system by January 1994. Funding for these alternativesystems were to be provided by two Hanford Environmental Compliance (HEC) lineitem sub-projects.

WHC-Sb-CO18H-FDC-001 REV 2

In April 1989, the 242-A Evaporator was placed in temporary standbybecause of a concern that past Hanford Site waste management and chemicalprocessing activities may have generated listed waste as defined by theResource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) (1976). These potentiallylisted wastes are currently stored in double-shell tanks (DST) and areprocessed subsequently through the 242-A Evaporator to reduce the wastevolume. The processing of the waste in the 242-A Evaporator produces aconcentrated waste, which is returned to the DSTs, and a PC stream, which istransferred to a soil column disposal site. If the DSTs contain a listedwaste, the PC is also a listed waste and must be managed in accordance withRCRA. Additionally, the level of ammonia in the 242-A Evaporator PC is highenough to make this discharge a dangerous waste according to WAC 173-303(Ecology 1989) criteria.

An investigation of past PUREX Plant waste generation practicessuggested a potential for a small amount of listed waste to enter thePUREX Plant PDD, thus potentially making past discharges listed wastes andprecluding future discharges to the existing disposal site. These practiceshave been discontinued, and future PDD is not expected to contain listedwaste. However, because of these potentially listed waste discharges to theexisting disposal site, the PUREX Plant cannot operate until an alternativestorage or disposal site is available.

The facilities provided by the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility(Project W-105) and this project are required for the continued operation ofthe 242-A Evaporator. The operation of the 242-A Evaporator is vital toconducting the Hanford Site environmental restoration mission. It will not bepossible to support the Hanford Federal Facility Agreement and Consent Order(known as the Tni-Party Agreement*) commitments if the evaporator remains in astandby condition. In addition, this project will enable Hanford to treatPUREX Plant PDD and ASD effluents to further reduce the radionuclide andchemical constituents in these streams prior to discharge.

An engineering study has been prepared that contains descriptions ofcurrent plans to provide alternative treatment and disposal systems for the242-A Evaporator PC and the PUREX Plant PDD and ASD streams. The engineeringstudy considered methods to accelerate the implementation schedules for thecurrently planned systems as well as interim systems that would replace oroperate until the currently planned systems are operational (Flyckt andMcCormack 1989).

The engineering study recommended the construction of an interim systemthat would replace the currently planned systems. The preferred system wouldinclude a facility where the 242-A Evaporator PC stream would be stored untiltreatment and disposal systems could be brought online. The Liquid EffluentRetention Basins (Project W-105) is being implemented to provide storage forthis stream.

WHC-SD-CO18H-FDC-0O1 REV 2

The project described in this FDC will provide the recommended treatmentand disposal systems for the 242-A Evaporator PC and the combined PUREX PlantPDD/ASD stream. The project systems are scheduled to be operational afterProject W-105 is operational.

1.2 Scope

This project will provide collection, treatment, and disposal systemsfor the combined PUREX Plant POD/ASD stream, and the 242-A Evaporator PC. Thetreatment and disposal systems contained within the scope of this FDC areanticipated to meet all applicable regulations, including the requirements ofthe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the State of WashingtonDepartment of Ecology (Ecology), and the DOE.

Included within the scope of this project are the following systems andfacil ities:

o The PC, PDD, and ASO treatment systems;0 Treated effluent disposal systems;o Secondary waste pretreatment and packaging systems;0 Offgas treatment systems;o Chemical storage and aqueous makeup (AMU) system;o Feed and treated effluent staging and verification tanks;0 Process and support services facilities; ando Monitoring and control systems.

The project will include the necessary utilities, communications, fireprotection and other safety-related items or features to make the projectoperational. In addition, these utilities will be designed to allow thefuture integration of the 200 Area Treated Effluent Disposal System (TEDS).Site improvements will be provided by the project where necessary toconstruct, maintain, or operate the treatment and disposal systems.

Excluded from the scope of this project is the treatment and disposal ofsecondary wastes. Treatment and disposal of these secondary wastes will occurin existing or planned Hanford Site facilities. The use of DSTs for thestorage of secondary wastes will not be considered in the design of theproject.

The preferred site for the treatment systems provided by this project isthe northeast corner of the 200 East Area. Because of the impact of futurenegotiations with the appropriate regulatory entities, it is not possible toidentify a single location for the disposal systems provided by this project.The exact location will be determined during definitive design. Appendix Acontains an illustration of the proposed treatment system site and threepotential disposal system sites.

1.3 Project Interfaces

The operation of the 242-A Evaporator is vital to the Hanford Siteenvironmental restoration program and key to the Hanford site Waste ManagementProgram. These programs will be significantly impacted if the project C-018Hfacilities are not operational. In addition, this project will enable Hanfordto treat two PUREX plant effluents and support the implementation of theoverall plan to stop discharges of contaminated liquids into the soil column.

Design and construction of the Project C-018H systems and facilitieswill be coordinated with the 200 Area TEDS and the Liquid Effluent RetentionFacility.

The Liquid Effluent Retention Facility will provide interim storagebasins for the 242-A Evaporator PC. The project will provide two basins forthe 242-A Evaporator stream and a third basin for back-up capacity in theevent of a primary basin failure. Included in the project are two 6.5-Mgalbasins for the 242-A Evaporator PC and third 6.5-Mgal back-up basin. Thetotal storage capacity in the interim storage basins is 19.5 Mgal. The basinswill store the PC until the inventory is treated and disposed of by thefacilities provided by Project C-018H. Regulatory agreements require that theLiquid Effluent Retention Facility be emptied of Land Disposal Restricted(LOR) wastes and residues by December 1994.

The 200 Area TEDS will provide the collection piping, standby treatment,and disposal systems for 13 effluent streams in the 200 Area. The projectwill interface and, if necessary, increase the treatment capacities providedby Pro ject C-018H. The 200 Area TEDS project is scheduled to be operationalby June 1995.

The design of Project C-018H will be coordinated with the 200 Area TEDSproject. However, these measures will not compromise start-up of ProjectC-018H systems. To reduce overall life cycle costs, the design of these threerelated projects will consider the following measures:

0 Utilize common utilities and operations support where practicable.

0 Provide a design for the process building that can be expanded.The design of the process building may include a temporary,nonload-bearing wall that can be easily removed for expansion.

0 Provide the ability to expand the utilities (e.g., electricalpower, raw and sanitary water, compressed air and sanitary sewer).

0 Provide the ability to expand facilities to handle the incrementalstaffing levels and workloads of the 200 Area TEDS project.

0 Provide capability in the design of the monitoring and controlsystems to allow expansion to incorporate the process controlrequirements of the 200 Area TEDS project.

2.0 FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS

The facilities provided by this project shall use commercially availableequipment and technologies wherever practicable. The design should be basedon treatment technologies currently used by commercial industries for treatingindustrial or process water.

The treatment system will be capable of treating a continuous flow of150 gal/minute. The design should utilize modular units wherever practicable.Appendix B contains a description of a proposed treatment system.

During the first two years of operation, the treatment systems willoperate 7 day/week, 24 hour/day. This operating schedule is needed to treatthe contents of the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (13 Mgal) while jointlytreating freshly generated 242-A Evaporator PC, PUREX POD, and PUREX ASD. Areduced operating schedule is expected after the contents of the LiquidEffluent Retention Facility have been treated. The design will support atotal operating efficiency (TOE) of 72% during the initial two years oftreatment system operation. The process design shall provide sufficientequipment redundancy, unit process surge tank capacity and unit processrecycle capability to meet and maintain TOE requirements.

2.1 Treatment Requirements

A summary of the characterization data for these effluents is presentedin Appendix C. Additional characterization data are available in WHC-EP-0287,Waste Stream Characterization Report (WHC 1989). The design of the treatmentsystem will assume that chemical additions have been made to the wastes storedin the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (e.g., algicide) and that the ion-exchange system currently used in the 242-A Evaporator has been bypassed. Thecharacterization data presented in Appendix C have been modified to accountfor the elimination of the 242-A Evaporator ion-exchange system. Thecharacterization data indicate the following:

o The streams are low-level wastes as defined in DOE Order5820.2A (DOE 1988b);

o The 242-A Evaporator PC contains concentrations of ammonia thatare sufficient to be a dangerous waste;

o The PUREX Plant streams are not dangerous waste; and

o The 242-A Evaporator PC is a listed dangerous waste.

The treatment system will be capable of meeting release limits containedin Washington State's Waste Discharge Permit Program, WAC 173-216(Ecology 1986). Washington State policy requires the application of allknown, available, and reasonable technology (AKART) to prevent and control the

5


discharge of wastes into the waterways throughout the state. During thepermitting process, the appropriate treatment system design will be determinedby the AKART process. The AKART methodology will include a review oftreatment system technologies. Releases from the treatment system will alsobe consistent with as low as reasonably achievable (ALARA) practices containedin DOE Order 6430.1A, WHC-CM-4-9, (WHC 1988c), WHC-CM-4-11 (WHC 1988e), andwith the Best Available Technology (BAT) requirements of DOE Order 5400.5.

The WAC 173-216 permit conditions will be negotiated during the designof the project. Until these criteria are available, the design of the projectwill use the target levels presented in Appendix D. The treatment target forthe radionuclide constituents (excluding tritium) is 0.04 of the derivedconcentration guides.

The treatment targets presented in Appendix D are intended to guide thedesign of the 242-A Evaporator and PUREX Plant Condensate Treatment System andare expected to be conservative (low) estimates of the release limits thatwill be contained in a WAC 173-216, state Waste Discharge Permit Program. Thetargets are not intended to be an indication of the level of treatment that ispossible with the facilities provided by this project. The treatment targetsare not intended to be an indication of the level of treatment that ispossible with the facilities provided by this project. It is possible thatthe BAT selection process of DOE Order 5400.5 or the State of Washington'sAKART process may determine that some of the treatment targets are notachievable.

The treatment targets presented in Appendix D result from an assessmentof (1) the State of Washington's proposed groundwater standards and (2) thebest demonstrated available technology (BDAT) treatment requirements of theRCRA. The treatment targets presented in Appendix D are based on thefollowing:

0 Safe Drinking Water Act3 Primary Maximum Contaminant Levels(PMCL), Secondary Maximum Contaminant Level (SMCL), MaximumContaminant Level Goals (MCLG)

0 Ground water quality criteria as stipulated by WAC 173-200

0 Land disposal restrictions, 40 CFR 268.41 and 40 CFR 268.43

0 One tenth of the purgewater collection criteria values asstipulated in Table 1, "Strategy for Handling and Disposing ofPurgewater at the Hanford Site," (90-ERB-076)

0 Health based limit, as stated in Docket Report on Health-BasedLevels and Solubilities Used in the Evaluation of DelistingPetitions Submitted Under 40 CFR 260.00 and 260.22, written byScience Applications International Corporation, prepared under EPAcontract No. 68-W9-0091 for the EPA, Washington, D.C. (November1989) or the practical quantification limit as listed in 40 CFR264, Appendix IX, whichever is greater.

5.0 SAFETY

5.1 Construction Risks

Risks associated with construction activities are to be considered.In this regard, applicable, referenced DOE Orders and Westinghouse Hanfordmanuals issued for compliance during construction will be considered duringdesign to minimize the risks. A hazards classification-analysis will beperformed for this project. Until this classification is completed, thedesign of the project will be consistent with the criteria for a low hazardnuclear facility. Design will ensure that construction of this project isaccomplished without violating the National Fire Protection Association NFPA101, "Life Safety Code" (NFPA 1988).

5.2 Operating Risks

The facilities provided by this project will provide an environmentallysuitable disposal method for treated industrial or process water. Thesuspended and dissolved materials are of low concentrations. Theconcentration of radionuclides is below the levels requiring secondarycontainment as specified in DOE Order 5820.2A.

The process condensate from the 242-A Evaporator may contain low levelsof source specific dangerous waste. The design and construction of the pipingand treatment systems employed for the 242-A Evaporator PC will comply withthe appropriate RCRA and WAC 173-303 containment and leak detection criteria.

The treatment process will require appropriate design and administrativecontrols to prevent excessive concentration of radionuclides, as well asprevent unacceptable exposure to the operating personnel (as quantified bySection 5.2 guidelines):' The facility will not provide for the long-termstorage or treatment of secondary solid wastes. These solid wastes will betransported to other Hanford Site storage and treatment facilities designed tohandle these and similar Hanford Site wastes.

The treatment systems are anticipated to be commercially availablesystems. The operating procedures and requirements of the treatment systemspresent no great unknowns or risks.

21


5.3 Unacceptable Safety Consequences

The project design goal will be to prevent an unacceptable safetyconsequence. Unacceptable safety consequences include:

0 Fire or explosion;

0 Criticality event--At least two unlikely, independent, andconcurrent changes (contingencies) in processing and/or operatingconditions must happen before a criticality accident is possible.(a criticality event is anticipated to be an unlikely event);verification will be in accordance with DOE Order 6430.1A, 1300.4;

0 Radioactivity event--Instantaneous releases of radioactivity fromthe facility are in excess of 5,000 times the DerivedConcentration Guidelines limits at the point of discharge averagedover 4-h period as defined in WHC-CM-7-5 Environmental ComplianceManual (WHC 1988b) (a radioactivity event is anticipated to be anunlikely event); verification will be in accordance withDOE Order 6430.1A;

o Exposure of personnel to ionizing radiation in excess of thestandards and guidelines specified in the DOE Order 5480 series;and

0 Exposure of personnel to toxic chemical agents in excess ofceiling threshold limit values (TLV-C) of the American Conferenceof Governmental Hygienists.

New safety documentation to be prepared by the operating and engineeringcontractor will verify the safety design features, operating requirements, andadministrative controls required of the facilities before operation. Theinteractions of systems, components, and structures between Projects C-018,W-049H, and W-105 will be analyzed to ensure required functions survive undernormal, upset, and accident conditions.

APPENDIX B

PROPOSED TREATMENT SYSTEM

The proposed treatment system will be capable of treating 150 gal/min.

Because the 242-A Evaporator PC is a listed waste, it is necessary toprepare a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-approved delistingpetition for the wastestream before operation of the treatment system.

The design capacity for the 242-A Evaporator is based on the followingconsiderations:

0 The maximum expected flow rate for the 242-A Evaporator PC is75 gal/mmn. This flow rate assumes that the existing ion-exchangecolumn is bypassed.

0 The 242-A Evaporator will produce 40 Mgal of PC during the firsttwo years of the treatment facility operation.

0 The Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (Project W-105) willcontain 13 Mgal of 242-A Evaporator PC at the time of thetreatment facility start-up. A recent agreement with the EPA andthe coordination with the 200 Area Treated Effluent DisposalSystem (TEDS) require that this inventory be treated and any LandDisposal Restricted (LDR) wastes removed from the basins byDecember 1994.

0 During the first 2 years of operation the treatment system willoperate 7 day/week, 3 shifts per day. The assumed total operatingefficiency (TOE) for this period of time is 72%.

The design capacity for the PUREX Plant train will also be 75 gal/mmn.The expected average flow rate for the combined PDD/ASD stream is 40 gal/mmnwith a maximum 24-hour flow rate of 60 gal/mmn. As a result, some excesscapacity will be provided.

The proposed treatment system will consist of the following components:

0 Staging tankso Suspended solids removal0 Organic removal0 Ammonium sulfate formation0 Dissolved solids removal0 Dissolved solids polishing0 Final pH adjustment0 Verification tanks0 Secondary waste concentration

B.1 Staging Tanks

The criteria for the staging tanks are presented in Section 2.6 of thisFunctional Design Criteria (FDC). Because the 242-A Evaporator PC is a listedwaste, the staging tanks for this stream will comply with WAC 173-303-6401.The capability to obtain a representative sample of the feed before it entersthe tanks will be provided.

The design shall consider the following to provide sufficient stagingtank capacity to support:

0 The 242-A Evaporator and the PUREX Plant operations if thetreatment system is non-operational for a 48-h period;

o Staging of the feed without shutdown of either facility duringtreatment systems operations; and

0 Staging of feed from the Liquid Effluent Retention Facility(LERF). The feed from the LERF can be mixed with the feed fromthe 242-A Evaporator.

B.2 Suspended Solids Removal -

The suspended solids removal step will remove particles in the 0.5 to2 micron range. The filters will be designed to minimize secondary wastevolumes. The filters could be designed to be air-scoured and backwashablewith one to two filter volumes of backwash. The design should permitbackwashing remotely to eliminate personnel radiation exposure to the maximumextent possible.

'Ecology, 1989, Dangerous Waste Regulations, Washington AdministrativeCode 173-303-640, Washington State Department of Ecology, Olympia, Washington.

45


The suspended solids removal step shall allow for the treatment facilityto operate at design capacity during periods of filter backwash and filtermaintenance.

8.3 Organic Removal

The preferred organic removal step will consist of an ultraviolet (UV)light mediated-oxidation process (UV oxidation). The system will utilizehydrogen peroxide and/or ozone as the oxidant to promote destruction of theorganic impurities. -This unit is assumed to be capable of destroying theorganic impurities to the treatment requirements as listed in Appendix B ofthis FDC. The validity of this assumption will be tested during the design ofthe treatment system. Activated carbon columns may be considered if theverification testing shows that the UV oxidation system cannot reliably meetthe treatment targets, as described in Appendix D of this FOC.

The design of the UV oxidation step should be based on commerciallyavailable units. The design should minimize modifications to commerciallyavailable units. The design should identify critical components and allow forrapid repl acement.

8.4 Ammonium Sulfate Formation

The ammonium sulfate formation step will consist of an in-lineneutralizer to adjust the pH of the stream to the 4 to 6 range. Thisneutralization will occur in several steps and utilize sulfuric acid. Thedesign should identify critical components and allow for rapid replacement.

8.5 Dissolved Solids Removal

The preferred dissolved solids removal step will consist of a reverseosmosis (RO) unit. The reject for the RO units will be concentrated tomaximum extent possible. It is anticipated that a three-stage RO unit will berequired. Consideration should be given to providing a particulate filterbefore the RO units. This filter will collect any particulates that areformed during the UV oxidation step or the ammonium sulfate formation step.

The design of the dissolved solids removal step should be based oncommercially available RO units. The design should minimize modifications tothe commercially available units. The design should identify criticalcomponents and allow for rapid replacement. For example, the facility shouldbe designed to allow for routine replacement of the RO membranes.

46

WHC-SD--CO18H-FDC-OO1 REV 2

B.6 Dissolved Solids Polishing

The dissolved solids polishing step will consist of an ion-exchangesystem. This polishing step may be necessary to meet the treatment targetsas described in Appendix E of this FDC. The design of the ion-exchange systemwill incorporate a variety of ion-exchange media. Potential media to be usedin the ion-exchange system include: strong acid/base resins, weak acid/baseresins, mixed-bed resins, zeolites, ion-specific resins, and activated carbon.The final selection of media is dependent upon negotiations with regulatorsand upon the results of the ongoing verification testing.

The design of the ion-exchange system will include the followingfeatures:

0 Mul~ti-vessel design--Consideration should be given to a five-vessel design: cation vessel, anion vessel, mixed-bed vessel,activated carbon, and a spare vessel. The design should allow foreasy modification of the flow path. Because of expected changesin the regulations and in the feed to the treatment system, it maybe necessary to reconfigure the flow path of the ion-exchangesystem.

0 Regeneration of the ion-exchange media.

o Sluicing of the resins into and out of the ion-exchange vessels.

The design of the system will be based on commercially available ion-exchange units. The design should minimize the modifications to commerciallyavailable equipment. The design will identify critical components and allowfor their rapid replacement.

B.7 Final pH Adjustment

The pH of the treated effluent will be adjusted and will consist of anin-line neutralizer to adjust the pH of the stream to the 6 to 8 pH range.This neutralization will occur in several steps. The design should identifycritical components and allow for rapid replacement.

B.8 Verification Tanks

Before release, the treated effluent will be routed to threeverification tanks that will be capable of containing the treated effluentfor a minimum of 72 hours. The verification tanks shall meet the requirementsof WAC 173-303-640.

47


It is anticipated that these tanks will be used to periodically verifythe quality of the treated effluent whenever one of the following conditionsexist:

0 A change in feed to the 242-A Evaporator

o A change in treatment system configuration

0 During the initial start-up of the treatment system

It is anticipated that several analytical tests required forverification will require a minimum of 72 hours. During these periods ofextensive verification testing, the effluent will be recycled back to thestaging tanks or the system will be placed in a temporary standby condition.

The design of the treatment system will allow for the collection of aflow-proportional sample of the treated effluent. The design of the samplingsystem will be consistent with the requirements of the Resource Conservationand Recovery Act2 (RCRA) and the Clean Water Act.

3

8.9 Secondary Waste Concentration

The preferred process for the secondary waste concentration step is amechanical vapor recompression evaporator. The concentrate from the.evaporator is to be converted into a solid without any freestanding liquid.The criteria for the secondary waste are contained in Section 2.3 of the FOG.A single waste concentrator will be provided for both the 242-A Evaporator andthe PUREX Plant condensate treatment systems.

The design of the secondary waste concentrator will be based oncommercially available units. The design of the system will minimizemodification to commercially available equipment. Redundant concentrationunits will not be provided. However, the design of the system should identify'critical components and allow for ease of replacement and/or repair.

APPENDIX C

CHARACTERIZATION DATA

The design of the 242-A Evaporator and PUREX Plant condensate treatmentsystem will be based on the characterization data presented in Table B.1.Additional characterization data can be obtained from the Waste StreamCharacterization Report.' Source terms for safety analysis and permittingactivities will be developed separately.

The characterization data for the 242-A Evaporator process condensate(PC) are based on samples collected downstream of the existing ion-exchangecolumn. After the start-up of this project, these ion-exchange columns willbe bypassed. The ion-exchange media currently used in the 242-A Evaporator isvery specific for cesium and strontium. As a result, the cesium and strontiumcharacterization data presented in Table C-1 have been increased by a factorof 10. The only other expected change is a decrease in the concentration ofsilicon. The high silicon levels are likely the result of degregation of theion-exchange media.

WHC-SD-C018H-FDC-O01 REV 2

APPENDIX D

TREATMENT TARGETS

The preferred alternative for the disposal of the treated effluent fromthe 242-A Evaporator and PUREX Plant condensate treatment facility is a soilcolumn disposal system, permitted in compliance with WAC 173-216, WasteDischarge Permit Program. 1 Should this alternative become unacceptablebecause of technical or permitting issues, it will be necessary to pursue ariver disposal option. The design and cost for this option should be includedin the conceptual design report.

The treatment system will be capable of meeting release limits containedin a State of Washington Waste Discharge Permit (WAC 173-216)1 or an NPDESpermit. This are negotiated permits, and requires the application of allknown, available, and reasonable technology (AKART) to satisfy therequirements of the state of Washington or Best Available Technology tosatisfy the Federal requirements. During the permitting process, theappropriate treatment system design will be determined by either the AKART orBAT processes. Both methodologies will include a review of treatment systemtechnologies.

Both WAC 173-216 and NPDES permit conditions will be negotiated duringthe design of the project. Until these criteria become available, the designof the project will use the target levels as presented in Table D-1.

The design of the river disposal option will provide a piping system totransport the treated effluent to the Columbia River. The discharge site willbe located in accordance with the Site Evaluation Report for the 200 AreaEffluent Retention and Treatment Complex (ERTC). The following outlines theminimal requirements of the river discharge system.

o A river outfall or diffuser, if provided, shall comply with theNational Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) andU.S. Army Corps of Engineers requirements.

0 River piping and diffusers, if provided, shall be secured andanchored to accommodate the 100-year flood.

0 Piping shall be compatible with the anticipated flowcharacteristics and shall be. designed for gravity flow whereverpracticable.

0 Pumps, if used, shall be electric, connected to standby power, andshall be redundant.

0 Piping shall be underground and/or otherwise protected fromfreezing.

o 200 Area Treated Effluent Disposal Facility (TEDF), Project W-049H;and

o 242-A Evaporator and PUREX Plant Condensate Treatment Facility,Project C-018H.

The Liquid Effluent Retention Facility (Project W-105) will provideinterim storage basins for the 242-A Evaporator process condensate (PC).

The 200 Area TEDF will provide the collection piping and disposalsystems for 13 effluent streams in the 200 Area. New collection piping willtransport the 200 East and West streams to the W-105 retention basins. Thebasins will have covers and primary liners replaced to ensure a cleanbackground for the streams. The effluents collected in the basins will besampled and analyzed prior to release. If clean, the effluent will bedischarge to a new pond provided by Project W-049H. If the effluent is notreleasable, it will be recycled and treated by the equipment installed byProject C-018H.

Project C-018H will provide a treatment system for the 242-A EvaporatorPC and the combined PUREX Plant POD and ASD streams. Beginning in June 1995,the Project C-018H treatment system will also provide the necessary standbytreatment capacity for the 200 Area TEDF (Project W-049H).

The estimate of staffing requirements is based on the followingassumptions:

0 All three projects will be operated by Westinghouse HanfordCompany Waste Management.

o All three projects will located northeast corner of the 200 EastArea and will be incorporated within the 200 East Area securityfence.

0 During the first two years of operation, Project C-018H willoperate 7 day/week, 3 shifts per day.' Total operating efficiency(TOE) for the treatment system will exceed 70%.
