A comparison of glass reaction at high and low glass surface/solution volume
William L. Ebert,John K. Bates +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed static leach tests at glass surface area/leachant volume (SA/V) ratios of 10, 340, 2,000, and 20,000 m[sup [minus]1] to assess the effects of the SA/V on the mechanism and rate of the glass reaction.

The leaching behavior of borate waste glass SL-1
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the leaching behavior of SL-1 glass in deionized water and found that the ion exchange reactions dominated the glass corrosion process with water in low temperature leaching conditions (⩽70°C).

Detecting low levels of transuranics with electron energy loss spectroscopy
Edgar C. Buck,Jeffrey A. Fortner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the position and intensity of the M4,5 absorption edges of the transuranic (TRU) were confirmed with samples of contaminated soils and data from the literature, in combination with crystal chemical considerations to determine chemical state.

William L. Ebert,S.W. Tam +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the dissolution rates of several Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPF) reference waste glasses by conducting static dissolution tests with crushed glasses were calculated from measured B concentrations in tests conducted for up to five years.
