From page 175...
... glass: The alkali borosilicate glass developed at the Savannab River Site, used in the environmental assessment of the Defense Waste Processing Facility (DWPl;) there, and specified in the Waste Acceptance Product Specification (WAPS)
From page 176...
... A liquid phase with two or more chemical species can be partitioned using selective media to segregate the species based on their differences in chemical reactivity. Urinate: The aqueous solution remaining after the metal has been extracted by the solvent; the tailing of the solvent extraction system.
From page 177...
... A detailed, multi-stage process includes other effects such as the change in volume of solution due to other inputs such as scrub flows, that dilute the radionuclide species of interest irrespective of any separations achieved in extraction stages. These are usually expressed using an "extraction factor," which is the ratio, for two phases, of the product of each phase's distribution coefficient and flow rate.
