The scope of the tests is such that there would be no significant impact on ambient air quality and Nevada guidelines for significant emission rates would not be exceeded. The major concern is for the effects of the experimental releases of NH/sub 3/ and N/sub 2/O/sub 4/, gases that are toxic at high concentrations. No permanent facilities would be constructed and surface disturbance would be minimal. An environmental assessment of the proposed project indicates that there would be no significant adverse impact. Frenchman Flat is more » a desert alluvial basin with a dry lake bed or playa at the center.
#BRASS & COPPER CLEANER N/R MAC 232 SDS SERIES#
The proposed location for this series of spill tests in Frenchman Flat on the Nevada Test Site (NTS). The information gained from these studies is needed to determine the safety problems presented by accidental spills and to develop better models to predict the dispersion behavior of these heavy gases. This short-term program of field experiments is designed to simulate accidental releases of these materials from pressurized transport and storage vessels. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) has assessed the environmental effects of a proposed series of liquefied ammonia (NH/sub 3/) and nitrogen tetroxide (N/sub 2/O/sub 4/) spill tests. 54 ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES 08 HYDROGEN AMMONIA RISK ASSESSMENT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS ACCIDENTS AQUACULTURE CHEMICAL EFFLUENTS DATA COMPILATION DIFFUSION HEALTH HAZARDS HEAT TRANSFER INDUSTRY NITROGEN OXIDES OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY POLLUTION CONTROL REFRIGERATION REMOVAL RESEARCH PROGRAMS TECHNOLOGY ASSESSMENT TERRESTRIAL ECOSYSTEMS TOXICITY CHALCOGENIDES CONTROL COOLING DATA ECOSYSTEMS ENERGY TRANSFER HAZARDS HYDRIDES HYDROGEN COMPOUNDS INFORMATION NITROGEN COMPOUNDS NITROGEN HYDRIDES NUMERICAL DATA OXIDES OXYGEN COMPOUNDS SAFETY 570000* - Health & Safety 560300 - Chemicals Metabolism & Toxicology 500200 - Environment, Atmospheric- Chemicals Monitoring & Transport- (-1989) 080500 - Hydrogen- Health & Safety Authors: Brenchley, D L Athey, G F Bomelburg, H J Publication Date: Tue Sep 01 00:00: Research Org.: Pacific Northwest Lab., Richland, WA (USA) OSTI Identifier: 5204717 Report Number(s): PNL-4006 ON: DE82006186 DOE Contract Number: AC06-76RL01830 Resource Type: Technical Report Country of Publication: United States Language: English Subject: 99 GENERAL AND MISCELLANEOUS//MATHEMATICS, COMPUTING, AND INFORMATION SCIENCE 63 RADIATION, THERMAL, AND OTHER ENVIRON.
