Abstract: The High-Level Waste System is a set of six different processes interconnected by pipelines. These processes function as one large treatment plant that receives, stores, and treats high-level wastes from various generators at SRS and converts them into forms suitable for final disposal. The three major forms are borosilicate glass, which will be eventually disposed of in a Federal Repository, Saltstone to be buried on site, and treated water effluent that is released to the environment.

TL;DR: The pre-treatment process analysis tool (PAT) as mentioned in this paper is a tool for evaluating tank waste pretreatment options at Hanford, Oak Ridge, Idaho National Environmental and Engineering Laboratory, and Savannah River Sites.
An optimization scheme for high-level-waste removal sequencing using ProdMod
TL;DR: The optimization scheme has been successfully implemented to maximize the amount of raw waste volume processed in a batch for one of the salt-processing options at the Savannah River Site HLW complex.

TL;DR: The Hanford Site represents DOE's most complex waste site because it not only involves the majority of waste and that waste is the most complicated, but also because the waste involves a multitude of interlocking and overlapping issues.
