Fit for purpose robotic platform
Is this your challenge ? Today, a growing army of robots is at our disposal with the pledge to help with everything we can think about. Some of these solutions can be purely for show, some can make a real difference in the way we work and keep humans out of harm’s way. They come […]
Source-less, noise-based seismic imaging
Is this your challenge ? © AEM-Technologies When it comes to safety in a nuclear facility, any risk needs to be accounted for, including external hazards such as floods, earthquakes, lightings, explosions, extreme temperatures, etc. Proper upfront characterisation – through historical data, sampling, etc. – allows the plant designers to carefully design
Antifraud system for radiographic weld inspection
Is this your challenge ? With more than 11 km of pipes in a nuclear power plant, the least you could say is that part of some plants could look like your overnight tupper full of dry and sticky spaghetti. With pipes come welds. In addition of ensuring the material used for your pipes can […]
Multi-use bio-inspired universal sampler for solids
Is this your challenge ? If you had to describe a nuclear facility, the first thing that would come mind is constrained, space-constrained, radiologicaly-constrained, temperature-constrained, etc. In quite a few situations - if not most of the time -, space-constraints must be dealt with. Either for sampling such as retrieving a piece of equipment [&helli
High-performance special nuclear materials identification
Is this your challenge ? Nuclear security is one of the most urgent policy issues of the 21st century, but it poses serious technical obstacles when it comes to track and secure nuclear material. Whereas it is as part of an industrial, civil or CBRN scenario, improving our ability to detect material more quickly […]
Leave & forget battery less, passive & flexible sensors
Is this your challenge ? To ensure safe operation of any industrial facility, condition monitoring is essential. Any parameter going outside its normal can lead to reduced productivity all the way to incidents and accidents having a drastic impact on the environment and the population. Today, there is a wide range of sensors allowing […]
Smart robotics for hazardous and confined environments
Is this your challenge ? Confined and hazardous environments exist in many industries, including the nuclear sector where maintenance, inspection and repair are some of the most important services with scenarios such as the maintenance of aged objects that can be especially challenging and expensive. In the field of industrial inspection, checking the condit
Battery free, wireless internal corrosion monitoring
Battery free, wireless internal corrosion monitoring Is this your challenge? Internal corrosion in pipework and vessels is a major problem for any asset operator. It poses a serious risk to safety and can result in serious damage as well as financial losses associated with downtime. Thickness data helps the operator to assess the condition of […]
All-in-one drum inspection & characterisation mobile system
Is this your challenge ? Radioactive waste is produced by any nuclear facility. To reduce the risks on the environment, radioactive wastes are characterised so they can be sent to the correct waste streams for storage and disposal. In legacy sites or fuel processing facilities, a whole range of characterisation tools are available for the […]
Super sensitive gamma imager for free release
Is this your challenge ? Many tools for measuring radioactivity are now available on the market, particularly for detecting gamma radiations. These tools are widely implemented on nuclear decommissioning sites, reprocessing facilities or waste repositories. During nuclear decommissioning or waste management operations, there is a need for imaging the contami
