Retrieving and Conditioning Waste
Rely on proven solutions for the recovery, treatment, and conditioning of your radioactive waste.
-
- Develop safe processes for waste retrieval, treatment, and conditioning validated by nuclear safety authorities
- Recover legacy or unconventional waste without an existing conditioning route
- Develop safe conditioning solutions that meet interim storage and final disposal criteria, adapted to various waste forms such as liquids, sludges, and solids
- Optimize project costs and timelines while minimizing technical and radiological risks
-
- Accurately characterize your waste to tailor recovery strategies, sort waste types, and select the optimal disposal route
- Deploy dedicated recovery tools (ROVs, teleoperated arms, suction heads, or grapples), designed and qualified according to your operational needs
- Integrate sorting and pre-treatment steps to reduce waste volumes and define the most suitable disposal route
- Condition waste under controlled conditions, using an existing production standard or by developing a dedicated standard
- Implement a proven qualification methodology covering recovery, treatment, and conditioning to secure operations on complex waste and meet safety requirements
- Reduce intervention risks by using proven technologies adapted to radiological and accessibility constraints
- Deploy customized solutions by optimizing waste routes for final disposal while controlling project costs and timelines
