Reducing the Volume of Radioactive Liquid Effluents for Final Conditioning
Minimize the volume of your high-activity liquid effluents to optimize their conditioning for long-term disposal.
-
- Significantly reduce the volume of high-level liquid effluents (HLW) to improve their interim storage and final conditioning
- Ensure safe remote operation and maintenance of equipment in hostile environments
- Adapt your equipment to your challenges (economic objectives, duration of operations, space requirements on site, etc.)
-
- Concentrate high-level liquid effluents using robust evaporators designed for the most challenging environments (heat, radioactivity, foaming, precipitation, etc.) for optimised final conditioning.
- Implement a proven and safe process that addresses all chemical and nuclear risks (decay heat, radiolysis, criticality, irradiation, and contamination), as well as environmental constraints
- Reduce operating costs through the recycling of certain reagents
- Integrate our solutions into your existing environment : compactness, remote maintenance, inspection during operation, adaptation to your lifespan and installation constraints
- Rely on comprehensive support from scoping to industrial deployment, backed by integrated expertise in R&D, engineering, operations, and lesson learned from field experience
-
- Volume reduction by a factor of 10 to 100 depending on effluent characteristics
- Concentrates compliant with conditioning requirements, including effective management of precipitates and foams
- Materials and processes adapted to corrosive environments such as strong acids, strong bases, and aggressive ions
- Service life tailored to site needs with options for inspection and life extension
- Over 50 years of expertise in the design, manufacture, and operation of evaporators for treating effluents ranging from laboratory waste to fission products from used fuel recycling facilities, including the concentration of effluents during remediation or decommissioning operations
- Latest-generation evaporators commissioned in 2023, incorporating the most recent technological and regulatory advances
