Augmented real time dosimetry
Is this your challenge ? Storage platforms, buildings are just a few of the many areas of a nuclear facility that must be monitored for radiation. Common practice usually involves manual measurement rounds using radiometers, and a few costly beacons. Taking manual radiation measurements is tedious, time consuming, expensive and error prone. Radioprotection i
Decontamination & surface treatment gamechanger
Is this your challenge ? From reactor’s core, cooling systems, used fuel cooling ponds, discharge pipelines... a nuclear site does have a few submerged environments to consider. Some of which do require regular inspection, to monitor maintenance regime or ascertain decommissioning strategy. Although some of these environments might require radiation resist
Cooling system pipeline regeneration
Is this your challenge ? Either underground or overground, restoring the structural integrity of essential pipelines on a nuclear sites is often problematic, expensive and time-consuming. Manual patch repair applications can often be unreliable, with an inhomogeneous rendering affecting the mechanical properties and the durability of the repair. Do yo
Tetherless inspection of submerged assets
Is this your challenge ? From reactor’s core, cooling systems, used fuel cooling ponds, discharge pipelines... a nuclear site does have a few submerged environments to consider. Some of which do require regular inspection, to monitor maintenance regime or ascertain decommissioning strategy. Although some of these environments might require radiation resist
Steam generator inspection
Is this your challenge ? In a nuclear power plant, steam generators are used to convert hot water from the primary loop (in contact with nuclear fuel) to steam in the secondary loop (which then goes on to produce electricity from large-scale turbines). Condition are here extreme, 315 °C, 160 bars in the first […]
3D radiological & topographical mapping
Is this your challenge ? All operations on a nuclear site are constrained by the requirement to understand the radiological conditions under which they might be performed. Whether in new or older facilities, from maintenance to decommissioning activities, countless manual surveys are completed to assess those radiological conditions. Traditionally hand sketc
Miniature gamma imaging
Is this your challenge ? From maintenance to decommissioning activities, all operations on a nuclear site require a clear understanding of radiological environment. As a consequence of Fukushima events, gamma imagers are now commonly used for routine inspections in the nuclear industry. While requirements concerns grow regarding measurement performance and a
Secure ultrasonic data transfer
Is this your challenge ? In environments like those found in the nuclear industry, there are zones where common wireless communication approaches are ineffective and where solutions such as wiring are unpractical and expensive. This is sometimes even emphasised by the fact that, for the nuclear industry, the need for a reliable and secure data […]
Portable decontamination tool
Is this your challenge ? Either to reduce the dose level impact in a facility to allow for easier access during dismantling (radioprotection), to minimise the potential for spreading contamination during further dismantling (safety), to allow for the disposal of waste in a lower category or even to consider clearance of material (ALARP & cost savings),
A.L.A.R.A surveying and inspection
Is this your challenge ? Nuclear power plants and waste repositories are hazardous environments. With radiation being the main challenge to deal with on a daily basis, surveying and assessing the status and functionality of all key equipment can be complex. Nonetheless, successfully monitor the activities within these harsh environments is vital.It is
