DEMONSTRATION
OF
THE
STABILIZATION
PROCESS
FOR
TREATMENT
OF
MERCURY
SLUDGE
WASTES
CONTAINING
>
260
PPM
MERCURY
INTRODUCTION
The
Environmental
Protection
Agency's
(
EPA)
Land
Disposal
Restrictions
(
LDR)
program
currently
has
technology­
specific
treatment
standards
for
hazardous
wastes
containing
greater
than
or
equal
to
260
ppm
total
mercury
(
Hg)
(
i.
e.
high
Hg
subcategory
wastes).
The
treatment
standards
specify
RMERC
for
high
Hg
subcategory
wastes
and
IMERC
if
the
high
Hg
subcategory
wastes
contain
organics.
RMERC
requires
retorting
or
roasting
in
a
thermal
processing
unit,
while
IMERC
specifies
incineration.
Both
of
these
standards
are
based
on
the
premise
of
recovering
the
Hg
for
recycle.
In
the
case
of
radioactivelycontaminated
Hg,
when
the
Hg
is
recovered,
it
is
typically
still
radioactive
and
therefore
can
not
be
recycled.
EPA
requires
that
this
recovered
radioactively
contaminated
Hg
undergo
additional
treatment,
specifically
amalgamation,
prior
to
disposal.
The
Department
of
Energy
(
DOE)
TRU
and
Mixed
Waste
Focus
Area
(
TMFA)
and
the
Mercury
Working
Group
(
HgWG)
chartered
under
the
TMFA
are
working
with
EPA
to
validate
technologies
that
can
directly
treat
radioactively
contaminated
high
Hg
subcategory
wastes
without
removing
the
mercury
from
the
waste.

To
date
under
this
program
a
waste
soil
from
Brookhaven
National
Laboratory
(
BNL)
containing
approximately
4,800
ppm
of
Hg
and
radioactive
contaminants
has
been
successfully
treated
by
several
different
vendors
to
meet
a
Hg
Toxic
Characteristic
Leaching
Procedure
(
TCLP)
treatment
goal
of
0.025
mg/
l
or
less.
These
treated
waste
forms
are
now
undergoing
additional
evaluations
using
new
analytical
protocols,
developed
by
Dr.
David
Kosson
of
Vanderbilt
University.
The
data
generated
will
be
compared
to
the
standard
TCLP
results.
These
new
protocols
provide
another
methodology
to
determine
how
the
treated
waste
form
will
behave
in
a
variety
of
disposal
environments.

To
supplement
the
data
on
treatment
of
soils
EPA
needs
additional
data
for
stabilization
of
high
Hg
subcategory
waste
sludges.
The
data
gathered
from
the
demonstration
of
treatment
of
this
sludge
should
then
provide
EPA
with
enough
information
to
support
a
revision
to
allow
stabilization
of
all
high
Hg
subcategory
wastes.
12
As
in
the
demonstration
on
the
BNL
soils
referenced
above,
this
effort
will
also
have
two
major
objectives.
The
first
objective
is
to
evaluate
alternative
processes
to
RMERC
and
IMERC
for
DOE's
legacy
mixed
waste.
To
that
end,
the
processes
will
treat
a
high
Hg
subcategory
surrogate
waste
to
meet
a
TCLP
treatment
goal
of
0.025
mg/
l
or
less.
A
non­
radioactive
surrogate
waste
sludge
has
been
selected
to
eliminate
the
added
cost
and
requirements
for
handling,
treatment,
and
disposal
of
an
actual
radioactive
mixed
waste.
The
surrogate
sludge
will
contain
five
different
forms
of
mercury
including
elemental.
The
second
objective
is
to
provide
EPA
with
the
treated
waste
forms
which
EPA
will
test
to
again
compare
proposed
new
analytical
protocols
to
the
standard
TCLP
results.
These
comparisons
will
be
used
by
EPA
in
their
efforts
to
revise
the
LDR
treatment
standards
for
Hg­
bearing
hazardous
wastes.
Technology
vendors
will
participate
in
this
demonstration
at
their
expense
except
for
the
analytical
costs
incurred
from
the
use
of
an
outside
laboratory
to
perform
the
surrogate
waste
characterization,
TCLP
testing
on
the
treated
waste
forms
and
the
costs
of
shipping
the
treated
waste
forms
to
the
University
of
Cincinnati
(
UC)
where
the
new
protocol
testing
will
be
performed
and
to
Oak
Ridge
National
Laboratory
(
ORNL)
where
vapor
pressure
testing
will
occur.
UC
will
provide
the
raw
materials
and
the
protocols
to
make
up
the
surrogate
waste.
All
testing
data
from
the
study
will
be
shared
with
the
vendors.

For
the
demonstration
the
seller
will
make
up
and
process
two
100
lb
batches
of
the
same
formulation
surrogate
waste.
The
seller
shall
perform
all
chemical,
physical,
and
engineering
analyses,
as
well
as
any
preliminary
treatability
studies
in
addition
to
the
final
demonstration
on
each
batch
that
the
seller
deems
necessary
to
ensure
the
successful
demonstration
of
the
seller's
stabilization
process
to
achieve
the
performance
targets
established.
Upon
completion
of
the
testing
the
seller
shall
prepare
a
report
documenting
the
methods
and
results
of
this
work.

Multiple
contracts
will
be
awarded
up
to
the
available
funding.
The
available
funding
will
pay
for
the
raw
materials,
shipment
of
the
raw
materials
to
the
various
treatment
vendors,
analytical
costs
for
waste
characterization
and
the
final
waste
forms
at
an
outside
laboratory,
and
shipment
of
these
treated
waste
forms
from
the
treatment
facilities
to
UC
and
ORNL.

FINAL
WASTE
FORM
SAMPLING
&
ANALYSIS
FOR
WASTE
FORM
EVALUATION
In
a
cooperative
effort
with
the
EPA,
several
additional
analytical
protocols
are
to
be
run
on
the
untreated
and
treated
surrogate
waste.
These
protocols
will
be
run
by
the
University
of
Cincinnati
on
both
the
untreated
and
treated
surrogate
waste.
The
seller
will
be
required
to
take
the
samples
from
the
treated
waste
for
each
run,
package
them,
and
ship
them
to
the
University
of
Cincinnati.
The
data
generated
will
then
provide
EPA
with
a
comparison
of
the
TCLP
results
to
these
protocols
to
help
in
their
efforts
to
rewrite
the
mercury­
related
RCRA
regulations
to
make
them
more
environmentally
sound.
The
analyses
to
be
run
on
the
untreated
and
treated
wastes
are
to
help
EPA
develop
a
framework
for
evaluation
of
contaminant
leaching
that
should:
C
provide
a
conservative
but
more
realistic
estimate
of
mercury
leaching.
C
use
testing
approaches
that
can
be
carried
out
using
standard
laboratory
practices
in
a
reasonable
time
frame.
C
provide
release
limits
and
estimates
that
consider
site­
specific
conditions;
C
encourage
improvements
in
waste
management
practices
(
assuming
that
the
TCLP
results
are,
at
times,
misleading);
and,
C
provide
flexibility
to
allow
level
of
evaluation
(
and,
hence,
degree
of
over
conservatism)
to
be
based
on
the
user's
requirements.

The
following
intrinsic
waste
characteristics
will
be
used
to
estimate
the
mercury
release
for
the
scenario
outlined
above:

Samples
of
successfully
stabilized
surrogate
(
TCLP
<
.025
ppm)
will
be
characterized
and
leached
by
ALTER
Corporation
at
the
University
of
Cincinnati's
ALTER
facility.
The
following
testing
will
provide
information
on
the
characteristics
and
stability
of
the
stabilized
surrogate.

Characterization
testing
will
consist
of
bulk
density,
moisture
content,
percent
organic
matter,
cation
exchange
capacity
and
particle
size
distribution.

Leach
testing
will
consist
of
multiple
TCLP
extractions
followed
by
pH
based
leaching.
The
pH
based
leaching
will
provide
data
on
the
leachability
of
the
stabilized
surrogate
at
pH
2,
4,
6,
8,
10
and
12.
Acidity/
alkalinity
will
also
be
determined.

Only
the
TCLP
data
will
be
assessed
as
deviation
from
a
standard
value
(.
025
ppm),
all
other
data
will
be
reported
with
the
intent
of
providing
information
on
the
applicability
of
stabilization
as
a
treatment
for
mercury
wastes.

Mercury
vapor
pressure
testing
will
also
be
performed
on
the
seller's
final
treated
waste.
Therefore
the
seller
will
be
required
to
take
the
samples
from
the
treated
waste
for
all
runs
on
each
waste
stream,
package
and
then
ship
them
to
Oak
Ridge
National
Laboratory
for
this
testing.
14
PERFORMANCE
GOAL
The
performance
goal
for
treatment
by
stabilization
for
both
batches
of
the
surrogate
waste
sludge
is
to
meet
the
Universal
Treatment
Standards
(
UTS)
for
the
category
of
"
Mercury­
All
Other"
wastes
and
the
Land
Disposal
Restriction
(
LDR).
That
mercury
standard
is
0.025
mg/
L
TCLP.
Mercury
analysis
is
defined
in
40
CFR
Part
261,
Appendix
II.
The
detection
limit
for
this
analysis
should
be
a
minimum
of
0.0002
mg/
l
Hg.
The
vendors'
waste
form
must
meet
the
performance
goal
in
order
to
have
that
waste
form
tested
and
evaluated
at
the
University
of
Cincinnati
using
the
new
protocols
and
at
ORNL
for
the
vapor
pressure.

OTHER
FUNCTIONAL
PERFORMANCE
REQUIREMENTS
The
seller
process
must
also
be
able
to
perform
to
the
following
standards:

1.
The
mercury
stabilization
process
shall
stabilize
mercury
containing
wastes
without
removing
the
mercury
from
the
waste
matrix;
processes
that
involve
separating
the
mercury
from
the
waste
matrix
followed
by
amalgamation
are
not
within
the
scope
of
the
demonstration.

2
The
mercury
stabilization
process
must
stabilize
all
forms
of
mercury
including
organic
and
halogenated
mercury
compounds,
elemental
mercury,
mercury
oxides,
and
mercury
nitrates.

3
The
mercury
stabilization
process
should
minimize
secondary
wastes.
The
waste
volume
increase
of
the
final
waste
form
due
to
the
stabilization
process
should
also
be
minimized
.

4
During
the
stabilization
process
demonstration,
a
chemical
reaction
may
result
that
increases
the
temperature
and
releases
undesired
off­
gases.
If
this
is
the
case,
the
demonstration
must
include
control
technology
to
ensure
waste
integrity
and
contain
both
mercury
and
organic
emissions.

5
The
stabilization
process
is
to
accomplish
mercury
stabilization
within
the
boundaries
of
worker
and
public
exposure
limits
as
required
by
OSHA
and
local
radiation
control
requirements.
The
process
shall
be
developed
to
ensure
worker
exposure
to
mercury
vapors
is
below
0.05
g/
m3
