NEUP CINR-20-19382: Separated waste stream immobilization of iodine and offgas caustic scrubber solution

This 2-year proposal, a collaboration between WSU and Rutgers supported by PNNL and ANSTO, aims to produce a set of waste forms from separation of iodine from the caustic offgas scrubber solution. The primary caustic scrub containing iodine, halides, and carbonate will be immobilized in a glass-bonded composite of cancrinite/sodalite. The iodine-loaded silver sorbent will be stripped of iodine, converted to NaI, and immobilized into a separate durable glass-bonded iodosodalite waste form.
