Operation of the proposed AWE Aldermaston1 Radioactive Aqueous Waste Treatment Plant evaporation system was modeled using the Environmental Simulation Program (ESP) licensed by OLI Systems, Inc. The projected RAWTP waste influents as well as two simulants (High Foam and Low Foam) were modeled to predict the composition of the feed, concentrate and condensate for projected waste influents. This report details the results of the modeled predictions
