Creator:: Kim, Young
Abstract:: Batch microcosm studies were carried out to screen for microorganisms from the subsurface of Hanford DOE site that could cometabolically transform chloroform (CF) under aerobic conditions. The potential need for CF bioremediation at the Hanford site has resulted from the large release of carbon tetrachloride (CT) to the subsurface, of...

Creator:: Leonard, Mary E.
Abstract:: Iodine-129 is a key risk driver at sites where nuclear materials have been fabricated or processed, and it is a predominant isotope of concern in long-term waste storage strategies. I-129 exists primarily as iodate in the subsurface at the Hanford Site in south-central Washington State. Between 15 and 40% of...

Creator:: Schwab, Kristen E.
Abstract:: Shallow land burial in vadose zone sediment at the Hanford Site in Washington is being considered for the disposal of Category 3 low-level waste. A series of column experiments were conducted to evaluate and model the performance of the soil surrounding the trench encasement material for iodine-129 and technetium-99 by...
