DOE-EM issues draft RFP for Hanford lab work, awards WIPP monitoring grant
The Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management issued a draft request for proposals on June 25 for the Hanford Site’s 222-S Laboratory contract. The 222-S Laboratory is the primary on-site laboratory for analysis of highly radioactive samples in support of all projects at the DOE’s Hanford Site in Washington state.

As basic studies for clarifying tritium migration and inventory in the solid blanket of fusion reactor, following experimental works have been performed: (1)Sorption (adsorption and absorption) of water vapor on/in the particle of Li2O and LiAlO2 was studied by the breakthrough method. Effects of water vapor pressure, temperature, particle size and bulk density were investigated. Dissociative adsorption on the surface of grain was considered to occur. (2)Exchange reaction between sorbed tritiated water on the surface of Li2O and H2 gas was studied. HT was found to be produced by exchange reaction.
