LASER ABLATION IN NUCLEAR DECONTAMINATION
With more than 440 nuclear power plants currently operating worldwide and 50 new plants currently under construction, there’s a rapidly growing need for nuclear decontamination processes. The costs to maintain and decommission these sites are often high and are extremely challenging to sustain. Laser ablation offers a more affordable alternative to media blasting and other traditional radiological decontamination processes due to its lack of secondary cleanup, environmental and operator friendliness, and low operating costs.
BENEFITS OF LASER CLEANING FOR NUCLEAR DECONTAMINATION
Laser Operator In Fukushima, Japan Post 2011 Earthquake
- Avoids equipment contamination using simple techniques
- Safe way to remove lead-based paints
- Capable of cleaning a wide range of materials
- Does not create radiological mixed waste
- Offers a new option to reduce dose rates
