North And South FED (Fuel Element Debris) Retrieval.
FED waste from vaults situated in the North and South of the Cooling Ponds complex.
The 3m³ stainless steel box, immobilised in concrete grout and placed in a concrete overpack
Ponds ScabblingContamination on the internal surfaces of the ponds walls through a process called Scabbling. Deployment of Remotely operated Vehicles (RoVs) into the pond lanes using concrete scabbling tools and other attachments to remove contaminated concrete to varying depths up to 40mm.
Date: 13/06/2007 12
Reactor 2 MAC (Miscellaneous Active Waste) MAC consists of activated components (mainly flux flattening bars) which were removed from the reactor core during the operational life of the station. Recovered remotely by manipulation, placed into a 3m³ stainless steel box and then immobilised in concrete grout and placed in a concrete overpack ready for long term storage in the ILW store.
MSV (Magnox Sludge Vaults)
Approximate volume of 72m3. It contained 30m3 of historical sludge, and continues to receive minor quantities of sludge from the Active Effluent Treatment Plant (AETP) and Decant Water Treatment Plant (DWTP). The 30m3 of sludge will be encapsulated inside stainless steel containers with a cement grout .
Date: 13/06/2007 13
Active Waste Vaults (AWV)
The nine vaults contain waste classed as LLW (Low Level Waste) and ILW. The waste retrieved from the AWV is packaged as LLW which is sent off site to the LLWR at Drigg.
Resin RetrievalThroughout the operational life of the site, ion exchange resins were used to maintain the water purity in the cooling ponds. The spent resins which form a liquid ILW are stored in steel tanks. The Resin is transferred to the Resin Plant for encapsulation in drums which are then to be stored on site in the Trawsfynydd ILW Store.
Date: 13/06/2007 14
ILW StoreSize of a football pitch and has 4 separate areas, Receipt Bay and Inspection Cell , a Drum and Concrete Overpack StoreDesigned for 2,500 drums and 370 three-metre concrete Overpacks.
