Hot-isostatic pressing (HIP)
HIP technology consists of a pressure vessel containing an electrically heated furnace. Components are placed in a sealed can inside the furnace and isostatically pressed with argon gas to maximum density.
Key Advantages:
No off-gas emissions
Waste is sealed and isolated from the processing equipment eliminating off-gas emissions
Higher waste loadings
Not limited by waste form electrical properties or viscosity
Very flexible technology
Applicable to a broad range of waste streams & capable of producing a wide range of waste forms
