Nuclear waste, managed responsibly
As global reliance on nuclear energy grows, so does the need for safe, compliant and sustainable waste management. The nuclear waste storage market is steadily expanding, driven by increasing demand for long-term solutions that protect people and our planet.
Practical, compliant solutions long-term stewardship
We bring expertise in nuclear waste storage, particularly in managing and disposing of low-level waste (LLW). Our capabilities include designing and operating waste conditioning and disposal facilities, such as half height ISO (HHISO) containers filled with grout to establish structural integrity and minimize radionuclide migration. These containers are stored in reinforced concrete vaults designed to prevent groundwater intrusion and subsidence. We also employ advanced techniques for waste characterization and management, promoting regulatory compliance and optimizing disposal processes.
Decommissioning with a waste-informed approach
Our teams are well-versed in decommissioning redundant nuclear facilities, using waste-informed strategies to minimize secondary waste and improve efficiency. Through integrated waste management systems and electronic tracking tools, we deliver comprehensive solutions for nuclear waste storage and disposal.
