1.0 OBJECTIVE
Finite element analysis of the INEEL PM-2A holding tank shells for the expected loading under
lifting of the holding tank and on-site transportation.
2.0 INTRODUCTION
Two 55,000-gallon INEEL PM-2A holding tanks (Tank # V-13 and V-14) will be lifted and
transported on the road at the site. Attachment 1 of this document provides the general
arrangement details for these holding tanks, and Attachment 2 of this document provides the
typical installed configuration details of these holding tanks. This document presents the finite
element analysis of a typical holding tank shell to demonstrate the compliance with the
requirements of Reference 1 for the following load cases:
2.1 Lifting (Figures 1 and 11)
Evaluation is performed for the loads that are exerted on the holding tank under the lifting
condition. For lifting of each holding tank, eight pads with lift lugs will be welded to the upper
surface of the holding tank per Reference 2 drawing. Ropes and spreader bars as shown in Figure
11 will be used to lift the holding tank. The holding tank design lift weight of 147,500 lbs.,
calculated in Reference 6 document, is based on Portage Environmental document PEI-EDF-
1006 (Reference 7).
2.2 Holding tank placement on saddles (Figure 2)
Evaluation is performed for the loads that are exerted on the holding tank shell while the tank is
resting on the two saddles. Each holding tank will be placed on the saddles per Reference 3
drawing. The saddle details are per Reference 4.
2.2.1 Tank on saddles during on-site transportation
Using the summary of component weight of Reference 6, a holding tank design weight of
125,000 lbs. is considered for this load case. This document also refers to this load case as the
unprocessed waste load case.
2.2.2 Tank on saddles during decontamination and decommissioning
The holding tank design weight for this load case is 216,000 lbs. (Reference 6). This document
also refers to this load case as the processed waste load case.
Analyses are performed using ANSYS (Reference 5) finite element computer program to
demonstrate the compliance with Reference 1 requirements.
Each holding tank is a horizontal circular cylindrical in shape and is nominally made of 5/8”
thick carbon steel shell (Attachments 1 and 2). Considering corrosion allowance, a conservative
3/8” thick longitudinal shell is used for the finite element evaluations. The holding tank domes at
each end are also modeled as 3/8” thick elliptical head.

6.0 STRUCTURAL ANALYSES
6.1 Lifting
An ANSYS finite element model is prepared for the analysis of the holding tank shell under the
applied loading. The model depicts the holding tank longitudinal shell with a dome at each end.
Title Finite Element Analysis of the INEEL PM-2A Holding Tanks .
Calc. No. ST-468 Rev. 0 Sheet 3 of 22 .
Due to the existence of a plane of symmetry, a 180 segment (half-model) with appropriate
boundary conditions along the plane of symmetry is considered for the analysis.
The model uses 3/8” thick 4-node finite strain shell elements (ANSYS SHELL181) for the
holding tank longitudinal body and for the dome ends, ¾” thick 4-node finite strain shell
elements (ANSYS SHELL181) to model the 20” square pads and 1” thick 4-node finite strain
shell elements (ANSYS SHELL181) to model the lift lugs. Weight density of the elements has
been adjusted as needed to account for the sludge on the bottom and for the model to yield a lift
weight close to the 147,500 lbs design lift weight (Reference 6). From the reaction solution
listing provided below, total algebraic sum of all the applied upward loads (4 x 20, 467 x Cos 25˚
= 74,198 lbs.) and the downward weigh component is essentially zero, which means that the
applied load is in equilibrium with the body weight.

Equal cable lift loads of 20,467 lbs. are applied at 25˚ from vertical to the lugs located at nodes
2772, 3008, 3212 and 3416 of the half-model.
Figure 3 shows the model, the boundary conditions and the applied loading used in the analysis.
Figure 4 adds a side view of the model to what was shown in Figure 3. Figure 5 shows the
enlarged view of the model for the 1” thick lift lug and the ¾” thick lug mounting pad. Figure 6
give the maximum stress intensity for the holding tank shell for this loading (SMX = 22,719
psi). Figure 6 also provides the maximum displacement of the holding tank under lift loading
(DMX = 2.729”).
SMX = 22,719 psi < 27,000 psi O.K.
This stress value (22,719 psi) compares well with the (22,141 psi) combined shell stress
calculated using the closed-form solution in Reference 6.
Figure 7 gives the maximum stress intensity (SMX) for the holding tank lift lug and the lug
mounting pad assembly for lift loading. SMX = 14,244 psi and it occurs at corner of the
mounting pad.
SMX = 14,244 psi < 27,000 psi O.K.
The lift lug local stresses are evaluated in Reference 6 document.
The model nodal coordinates, element and material information, boundary conditions, gravity
loading along with the nodal displacement, nodal and the reaction solutions are included in

6.2 Tank placement on two saddles
6.2.1 Tank on saddles during on-site transportation
An ANSYS finite element model is prepared for the analysis of the holding tank shell under the
applied loading. The model depicts the holding tank longitudinal shell with a dome at each end.
Due to the existence of two planes of symmetry, a 180 segment (quarter-model) with
appropriate boundary conditions along the two planes of symmetry is considered for the analysis.
The model uses 3/8” thick 4-node finite strain shell elements (ANSYS SHELL181) for the
holding tank longitudinal body and for the dome ends. Weight density of the elements has been
adjusted as needed to account for the sludge on the bottom and for the model to yield a
conservative holding tank weight. From the reaction solution listing provided below, the
calculated holding tank weight = 31,465 x 4 = 125,860 lbs. is larger than the holding tank design
weight of 125,000 lbs. (Section 2.2.2), hence the holding tank shell stress values calculated using
the finite element analysis are conservative.

The model is restrained where the holding tank shell makes contact with the saddle cradle. Nodal
restrains in the radial direction (UX) are provided for the appropriate nodes in this area. The
maximum shell stress intensity from the finite element analysis is:
SMX = 16,732 psi < 27,000 psi O.K.
Figure 8 shows the model and the boundary conditions used in the analysis. Figure 9 give the
maximum stress intensity for the holding tank for this loading (SMX = 16,732 psi). Figure 9
also provides the maximum displacement of the holding tank under this loading (DMX =
0.294444”). Note that a large scale-factor was selected so that the holding tank deformed shape
is clearly shown.
The model nodal coordinates, element and material information, boundary conditions, gravity
loading along with the nodal displacement, nodal and the reaction solutions are included in
Attachment - 4.
6.2.2 Tank on saddles during decontamination and decommissioning
The ANSYS finite element model used in Section 6.2.1 is utilized for the evaluations here.
Weight density of the elements has been adjusted as needed to account for the sludge on the
bottom and for the model to yield a conservative holding tank weight. From the reaction solution
listing provided below, the calculated holding tank weight = 55,034 x 4 = 220,136 lbs. is larger
than the holding tank design weight of 216,000 lbs. (Reference 6), hence the holding tank shell
stress values calculated using the finite element analysis are conservative.

The model is restrained where the holding tank shell makes contact with the saddle cradle. Nodal
restrains in the radial direction (UX) are provided for the appropriate nodes in this area. The
maximum shell stress intensity from the finite element analysis is:
SMX = 24,403 psi < 27,000 psi O.K.
The above conservative stress intensity value (24,403 psi) compares well with the 20,202 psi of
Reference 6. Since the holding tank content (sludge) will only exist over a small area at the
bottom of the holding tank the 20,202 psi is a more realistic representation of the shell
circumferential stress at horn of the saddle, which is less than the 27,000 psi allowable stress
value. Figure 8 shows the model and the boundary conditions used in this analysis. Figure 10
give the maximum stress intensity for the holding tank for this loading (SMX = 24,403 psi).
Figure 10 also provides the maximum displacement of the holding tank under this loading (DMX
= 0.359067”). Note that a large scale-factor was selected so that the holding tank deformed shape
is clearly shown.
The model nodal coordinates, element and material information, boundary conditions, gravity
loading along with the nodal displacement, nodal and the reaction solutions are included in
Attachment - 5.
7.0 DISCUSSION ON FEA RESULTS
The maximum stress intensities reported in Table 1 are based on the finite element analysis of
the holding tank with an assumed minimum thickness of 3/8” every where in its shell.
The allowable stresses and the margins of safety reported in the table are based on the American
Institute of Steel Construction, Inc. (AISC) Allowable Stress Design Manual. These allowable
values include a margin of safety of 33% over the yield stress of the material. Failure of the
components does not occur well beyond these allowable stresses. However, due to various
uncertainties involved in the PM-2A holding tank’s material and geometry, Duratek does not
recommend exceeding the AISC allowable stresses in the holding tank under any loading
conditions. Therefore, a minimum thickness of 3/8” in the holding tank wall needs to be
established by suitable NDE/UT methods, prior to lifting the holding tanks.

Review of Analytical Data for a Hazardous Waste Determination for the Contents of the
PM-2A Tanks (TSF-26)
1. INTRODUCTION
This report will cover the review of data used for characterization of the Waste Area Group
(WAG) 1 Group 3 PM-2A Tanks (TSF-26) contents. A field sampling plan (FSP) detailed the sampling
that occurred during FY-03 (INEEL 2003). The data obtained from that sampling campaign was
summarized for the contents of both tanks (Tank V-13 and Tank V-14) in an Engineering Design File
(EDF) that was used by Waste Generator Service (WGS) organization (Tyson 2004). This report will
expand upon that EDF to examine the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP) data related to
the codes D004 to D043. Additionally, total data for the various F001 solvents will also be presented
for comparison with F001 treatment standards. The review of this data is targeted at the nondetected,
“U-flagged” data.
This report will cover the review of analytical data from the FY-03 sampling of the WAG 1
Group 3 PM-2A Tank contents (TSF-26). The report covers the data for the contents of both tanks
(Tank V-13 and Tank V-14). The TCLP data relating to the codes D004 to D043 were reviewed.
Additionally, total data for the various F001 solvents were also reviewed. The review involved looking
at nondetected, “U-flagged” data and determining whether the reported detection limit was based upon
contractually-required reporting levels or were based upon actual laboratory-determined Method
Detection Limits (MDLs) specific to the analyte in question, considering sample size and any dilutions
necessary to complete the analysis. Where the reported value for “U-flagged” data was based upon
contractually-required reporting levels, that value was replaced with an estimate of the maximum value
that would have been labeled with a “U-flag” (i.e. not detected). These new values are based upon
laboratory-specific Method Detection Limits taking into consideration adjustments for variations in
sample mass, concentration volume, and dilutions. The revised values more adequately depict the upper
limits of concentrations that these “U-flagged” data could exhibit. Previous reports (Wells 2004,
Farnsworth 2004) have used MDLs to re-evaluate the magnitude of nondetect data to aid in making waste
determinations. This EDF will use a similar approach for representing the nondetect values.
2. SOIL DATA SOURCE
During the FY-03 CERCLA fielding sampling campaign, contents from both of the PM-2A Tanks
were sampled (Tanks V-13 and V-14, see Figure 1). Four composite samples were removed from each of
the tanks. The locations of the sampling sites are provided in Figure 2. Table 1 provides the samplers’
notes of the sampling activity.
3. SUMMARY OF THE ANALYTICAL DATA
The analytical results for the PM-2A Tanks contents are summarized in an EDF (Tyson 2004).
Limitations and validation (L&V) reports were obtained for the various analysis groups (volatile organics,
metals, etc.). That EDF provides the references to these L&V reports.
As was previously mentioned, four composite samples were taken from each tank.

The data previously evaluated in the PM-2A tank contents EDF (Tyson 2004) were based upon
those reported on Form 1s by the laboratory. Data flagged with a “U” flag were determined to not be
present in the samples at concentrations greater than the laboratory’s MDL for each analyte,
compensating for sample size and any dilutions as necessary. This value is typically a factor of 10 less
than the lowest calibration standard utilized.a However, according to the existing contract between the
INEEL and the laboratory, following standard industry practices, the laboratory is to report these values at
required detection limits utilizing the lowest calibration standard in the associated calibration. The
rationale for reporting in this manner is to ensure that the data reported meets minimum requirements for
the purpose intended. The purpose of this report is to be able to appropriately utilize the analytical results
that exceed the contractually-imposed requirements. See Figure 3 for a depiction of the issues related to
way nondetected values are reported.
Re-evaluating the data utilizing the laboratory-determined MDLs provides additional information
that may be useful in clarifying data interpretations. In this case, further analysis of the data, including an
evaluation of MDLs to determine maximum values for “U- flagged” data will allow a more accurate
assessment of the need for treatment for the PM-2A tanks.
3.1 Data Analysis
The data for organics were given two main numerical limits: a MDL and a laboratory reporting
limit (RL). These laboratory RLs for all of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were set at 10 µg/kg
for totals and 10 µg/L for TCLP analysis. The RLs for all of the semivolatile organic compounds
(SVOCs) were set at 330 µg/kg for totals and 10 µg/L for TCLP analysis. MDLs are provided in
Appendix A for the various species. (See Appendix B for the source of the MDLs.) For all of the VOCs
and SVOCs, the concentrations for “U-flagged” or nondetected species were greater than the
aforementioned RLs. This is due to various factors, such as dilutions and use of reduced sample aliquots
(nonstandard quantities of sample and/or extract). Equation 1 is used to adjust the “U-flagged” data to an
MDL concentration based on the ratio of the actual reported concentration of a specie to the reporting
limit of the specie. (NOTE: This equation was discussed with Sample Management personnel and will be
validated independently of this EDF.)

MDL=Method Detection Level (Statistically derived minimum
concentration of analyte that can be measured and reported with
99%confidence, as adjusted for sample weight and dilutions.)
Problem: “U” flagged data is reported at the RQL concentration instead of MDL based concentration. This is current contracted
practice even though there is no evidence of the contaminant above the statistically derived MDL?

3.1.1 TCLP Data
Tables 2 and 3 contain the reported TCLP data from the PM-2A Tanks for Tanks V-13 and V-14,
respectively. Tables 4 and 5 contain the reported TCLP data, with MDL adjustments for “U-flagged”
(nondetected) species, for Tanks V-13 and V-14, respectively. In Table 6, the TCLP regulatory limits for
the characteristic codes were compared to the 90% upper confidence limits (UCLs) for concentration of
species with detects and to the average of the concentrations for species with all nondetects. These
concentrations were determined for both Tanks V-13 and V-14 with and without the MDL adjustments on
the nondetects. Figures 4 through 7 were developed from the data in Table 6. Figures 4 and 5 show the
percent of the characteristic level (concentration of TCLP divided by the concentration of the regulatory
level times 100) versus the various D-code species for Tank V-13. Figure 5 differs from Figure 4 by
adjusting any nondetect species concentration by use of Equation 1. Figures 6 and 7 show the same
comparison for Tank V-14.
3.1.2 F001 Data
Tables 7 and 8 show the data for the F001 constituents. This is represented as a total concentration
of a given solvent in the PM-2A Tank waste. Figure 8 and 9 present concentrations for Tank V-13 at CRL
and MDL-adjusted. As is evident from these tables, there are no detected F001 species in Tank V-13,
while tetrachloroethylene and trichloroethylene are the only detected species in Tank V-14. A 90% UCL
was performed for both of these in Tank V-14, while all other F001 data took an average of the detection
limits. Tables 9 and 10 show the same data as Tables 7 and 8, except that the nondetected species had
their concentrations adjusted using the MDL values. In Table 11, the F001 treatment standards were
compared to the 90% UCLs for concentration of species with detects and to the average of the
concentrations for species with all nondetects. These concentrations were determined for both Tanks V-13
and V-14 with and without the MDL adjustments on the nondetects. Figures 8 through 10 were developed
from the data in Table 11. Figures 8 and 9 show the percent of the treatment standard (total concentration
of solvent divided by the F001 treatment standard concentration times 100) versus the various F001
species for Tank V-13. Figure 9 differs from Figure 8 by adjusting any nondetect species concentration by
use of Equation 1. Figure 10 shows the same comparison for Tank V-14.
3.1.3 Data Flags
The data flags are defined as follows:
“E” flags indicate interferences due to matrix suppression or enhancement as assessed from serial
dilutions.
“J” flags imply that the data is estimated when data point is below the calibrated range, but above
the statistically derived method detection limit (MDL). The associated value is an estimate and
may be inaccurate or imprecise.
“N” flags indicate that the percent recoveries obtained from the matrix spike analyses did not meet
the acceptance criteria. The percent recoveries are evaluated when the sample concentration is
less than four times the spike concentration added.
“U” flags imply that the data is below the MDL. Value typically reported at the reported quanitation
level (RQL) – the lowest concentration at which analyte can effectively be quantified. For
radioactive measurements, either the result is not statistically positive at the 95% confidence
level and/or the result was below the MDL.

3.2 Definitions of the Terms Used in the Data Analysis
The purpose of this section is to define some of the terminology utilized to explain the PM-2A
Tanks data.
Method Detection Limit (MDL) – The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency defines MDL as the
minimum concentration that can be determined with 99% confidence that the true concentration is greater
than zero and is determined from analysis of a sample in a given matrix containing the analyte. This
procedure is outlined in 40 CFR 136.
Reporting Limit (RL) – The laboratory will establish an RL that takes into account any deviation
from ideal laboratory sample results. This is considered acceptable concentrations reportable for that
sample under a given set of conditions. The RL is typically much greater than the MDL, with the level of
correction set by a given laboratory.
Contract Reporting Limit (CRL) – The CRL is the agreed upon reporting limits for the analytical
laboratory. Compliance with CRL is intended to provide data that enables the user to make regulatory
decisions regarding a waste matrix. The CRL should be greater than the RL.
Form 1 Data – This is the reported concentration that the analytical laboratory provides to their
customers. When a “U-flag” is given with the data, the numerical value is to be no greater than the MDL
and is not lower than RL. These data are influenced by sample method, sample matrix, sample size,
volume of extracts, and dilutions.

Appendix A
MDLs for the Analytes of Interest (TCLP and F001)
In order to adjust the U-flag data reported by the analytical laboratories, as reported in the Form 1s,
both MDLs and RLs are needed to perform the adjustment, per Equation 1 of this EDF. This Appendix
contains the MDLs and RLs for the VOCs (Table A-1), the MDLs and RLs for SVOCs (Table A-2) and
the TCLP MDLs and RLs (Table A-3).
