First steps of nuclear cleanup
This year, DEM2021, the international decommissioning conference is going to discuss some fascinating topics on D&D. It will all take place on the 13th to 15th of September in Avignon, France. We, at inTechBrew, will be present at DEM2021. So, we decided to go through what the best bits from the upcoming DEM2021 are likely to be. […]
WNE Awards 2021
The World Nuclear Exhibition is the largest professional fair dedicated to the nuclear sector in the world. Happening from the 30th of November to the 2nd December, it will stage international nuclear experts sharing insights during keynotes and networking opportunities with many companies present. What’s better than some numbers to show you that the W
Augmented real time dosimetry
Is this your challenge ? Storage platforms, buildings are just a few of the many areas of a nuclear facility that must be monitored for radiation. Common practice usually involves manual measurement rounds using radiometers, and a few costly beacons. Taking manual radiation measurements is tedious, time consuming, expensive and error prone. Radioprotection i
Decontamination & surface treatment gamechanger
Is this your challenge ? From reactor’s core, cooling systems, used fuel cooling ponds, discharge pipelines... a nuclear site does have a few submerged environments to consider. Some of which do require regular inspection, to monitor maintenance regime or ascertain decommissioning strategy. Although some of these environments might require radiation resist
Cooling system pipeline regeneration
Is this your challenge ? Either underground or overground, restoring the structural integrity of essential pipelines on a nuclear sites is often problematic, expensive and time-consuming. Manual patch repair applications can often be unreliable, with an inhomogeneous rendering affecting the mechanical properties and the durability of the repair. Do yo
Tetherless inspection of submerged assets
Is this your challenge ? From reactor’s core, cooling systems, used fuel cooling ponds, discharge pipelines... a nuclear site does have a few submerged environments to consider. Some of which do require regular inspection, to monitor maintenance regime or ascertain decommissioning strategy. Although some of these environments might require radiation resist
Steam generator inspection
Is this your challenge ? In a nuclear power plant, steam generators are used to convert hot water from the primary loop (in contact with nuclear fuel) to steam in the secondary loop (which then goes on to produce electricity from large-scale turbines). Condition are here extreme, 315 °C, 160 bars in the first […]
WNE, The nuclear industry, a key partner for a low carbon society in a responsible future
WORLD NUCLEAR EXHIBITION 2021 With less than six months to its grand opening, the world’s largest civil nuclear exhibition reveals details of the programme for its 2021 edition WNE, the world’s largest exhibition dedicated to the civil nuclear sector, is back in 2021. Running for three days, from Tuesday 30 November, to Thursday 2 December, at
3D radiological & topographical mapping
Is this your challenge ? All operations on a nuclear site are constrained by the requirement to understand the radiological conditions under which they might be performed. Whether in new or older facilities, from maintenance to decommissioning activities, countless manual surveys are completed to assess those radiological conditions. Traditionally hand sketc
Miniature gamma imaging
Is this your challenge ? From maintenance to decommissioning activities, all operations on a nuclear site require a clear understanding of radiological environment. As a consequence of Fukushima events, gamma imagers are now commonly used for routine inspections in the nuclear industry. While requirements concerns grow regarding measurement performance and a
