Polyethylene Encapsulates for Hazardous Waste Drums

摘要

This capsule report summarizes studies of the use of polyethylene (P.E.) for encapsulating drums of hazardous wastes. Flat PE sheet is welded to roto moded PE containers which forms the encapsulates. Plastic pipe welding art was used, but the prototype welding apparatus required construction. Welded seams were inspected by optical microscopy and found to be continuous and void-free.
