Methods of treating radioactive materials are disclosed. In one aspect, a method may include mixing a radioactive isotope diluted in a filler material with a radioactive material treatment composition to form a resulting material. The radioactive material treatment composition may include mostly salt, and from 0.5 to 15 wt % sorbent. The method may further include mixing the resulting material with one or more inorganic binding agents. Other methods of treating radioactive materials are also disclosed, as well as compositions for treating radioactive materials.

Methods of treating hazardous materials, such as, for example, contaminated soils, are disclosed. In one aspect, a method may include treating a contaminated soil with a hazardous material treatment composition to form a resulting material. In one aspect, the hazardous material treatment composition may include mostly salt, and from 0.5 to 15 wt % sorbent. The method may further include treating the resulting material with one or more inorganic binding agents. Other methods of treating hazardous materials are also disclosed, as well as compositions for treating hazardous materials.

Treating hazardous materials

The present invention relates to a digital DC voltage and horse power multimeter device unitized in determining the voltage and horse power on a locomotive system. The meter is permanently mounted onboard the locomotive and is capable of instantaneous determination of the voltage reading and horse power to provide real time evaluation of the locomotive's functions. The meter is built into the voltage test panel, replacing the test receptacles, and is designed to prevent operator error in that a voltage range is not required to be set before the multimeter reads a desired voltage. The meter is capable of reading the main generator, a load shunt test millivoltage, and is capable of determining the horse power of a locomotive system. The invention is therefore a device for metering electrical energy and calculating the horse power on a locomotive system which is permanently installed which operates off the existing 74V DC accessory power and is safer due to the absence of manual range settings.

Onboard digital locomotive horsepower multimeter

A digital, DC voltage meter device utilized for metering electric power on a locomotive system. This invention will eliminate the need to use a hand held meter to perform these functions. The meter is permanently built into the Voltage test panel, replacing test receptacles with a large 7/10' LED display that can be read day or night. It is designed to operate in temperatures from -32 degrees Fahrenheit to 158 degrees Fahrenheit. A three position spring loaded switch returning to the off position is used to operate the meter. The present invention is a custom DC voltage meter that is capable of measuring two voltage ranges on a locomotive system; 0-1500 Volts ('V') for main generator voltage can be measured when the switch is in the top position; and 0-75 millivolts ('mV') for load test shunt millivoltage can be measured when the switch is in the bottom position. The meter is also capable of displaying the Dynamic Braking Voltage when the locomotive's dynamic brake is engaged.
