摘要:The purpose of this analysis was to elucidate the
nature and composition of the vitrified fuel ash
waste (VFAW) or cramp recovered from the site, if
possible, by: a) identifying the key elements that
characterize cramp; b) identifying the key ingredients
of cramp, such as soil, bone, fuel and fuel ash,
and in what combination they occur; c) identifying
any key elements that characterise each ingredient;
d) identifying how the ingredients contribute to the
formation of cramp; e) identifying the conditions
(eg temperature, duration of heating) which prevail
in the course of cramp formation and what parameters
contribute to its vitreous state and extensive
porosity; f) comparing the cramp’s chemical and
mineralogical composition to cramp examined from
other sites.
