Abstract
This volume is a compendium of detailed test plans for the thermal destruction of chemical wastes in commercial scale facilities. Fourteen plans are presented in this volume, one for each facility recommended for the Phase II demonstration program. The facilities assigned to TRW and ADL are identified and located on the map. Each test plan is introduced by identifying the facility type, location, and general background information including prior experience with hazardous or toxic materials. A process description is provided, together with appropriate operating variables. In sequence, pollution control equipment, facility operational limitations, and wastes for the proposed test burns are identified. Test burn sequencing and desired operating conditions are tabulated as well as the required samples and sample locations. Logistical considerations for the handling of wastes and disposition of residues are presented.
