Award: CITRINE INFORMATICS, INC., NEW COMPETITIVE AGREEMENT, UNDER FOA NUMBER DE-FOA-0002530 (ONWARDS) WITH PROJECT TITLE ''NOVEL PHOSPHATE WASTE FORMS TO ENABLE EFFICIENT DEHALOGENATION AND IMMOBILIZATION OF SALT WASTE'' CITRINE INFORMATICS PROPOSE TO UTILIZE STATE-OF-THE-ART DATA SCIENCE AND PHYSICS-BASED SIMULATION METHODS TO RAPIDLY DISCOVER AND DEVELOP NOVEL PHOSPHATE WASTE FORMS (INCLUDING GLASSES, CERAMICS, AND THEIR COMPOSITES) TO ENABLE DEHALOGENATION AND MORE SECURE IMMOBILIZATION OF SALT WASTE. THE PROGRAM WILL CULMINATE IN A KG-SCALE PROOF-OF-CONCEPT OF THE DESIGNED WASTE FORM (TRL 3), DEMONSTRATING A 3× INCREASE IN WASTE MASS LOADING AND AN 80% DECREASE IN WASTE FORM VOLUME OVER THE STATE OF THE ART. THE PROPOSED TECHNOLOGY WILL RESULT IN 60% DECREASES IN BOTH CAPITAL AND OPERATING EXPENDITURES OF WASTE FORM PROCESSING.
