Doosan Babcock provides decontamination support to both operational and decommissioning nuclear sites. For some applications the main driver is dose reduction, but for others it is the ability to reduce waste volume through effective decontamination that offers significant cost benefit.
Doosan Babcock is able to evaluate materials of construction and type of contamination in order to select the most effective decontamination techniques. We have experience in the use of chemical, electrochemical and mechanical techniques. We do not utilise or market specific processes but select the most appropriate methods on a project by project basis.
The services we offer range from option studies to identify and select techniques through to fully integrated decontamination solutions. Doosan Babcock has an extensive range of capabilities to ensure that the most appropriate techniques are selected. These include:
- Materials laboratories
- Metallurgical & chemical laboratories
- Research & Development facilities
- Engineering
- Health physics
- Waste management
- Decommissioning
We also have a large resource of SQEP across the UK to implement any decontamination or decommissioning project.
