Another completed project in 2009 involved the conditioning of
120 m³ of fi lter concentrates for the nuclear power plant Gundremmingen.
50 MOSAIK ® containers were fi lled and conditioned
via the MAVAK facility from two collection tanks with a volume
of 60 m³ each. After the conditioning was completed, the MOSAIK ®
containers were transported to the interim storage facility of the
GRB Sammelstelle Bayern GmbH for radioactive materials in
Mitterteich. The conditioning of the fi lter concentrates took place
according to the schedule approved by BFS.
In 2009 we also completed the order for the supply of system
technology and handling tools for a state-of-the-art interim
storage facility for nuclear waste in Taiwan. Casks with cemented
radioactive waste from the nuclear power plant Lungmen will
henceforth be loaded with our crane systems onto palettes. From
Our components and plants are developed with state-of-the-art planning tools
under the aspects of safety, reliability, and ease of operation.
here our driverless palette vehicles will transport the palettes to
their storage position. The control technology for this plant, the
warehouse management software as well as the equipment for
monitoring and interventions are also made by Siempelkamp. The
advantages for the customer include the effi cient and fl exible
storage management and minimized exposure to radiation. This
order represents an important reference for our activities on the
Asian market.
A quality seal for our competence: As the representative for 141
sub-contractors and selected from approximately 8,800 Areva
suppliers, Siempelkamp accepted in 2009 the award ‘Top AREVA
Supplier’. This award demonstrates that Siempelkamp has adjusted
strategically to market requirements and has become an internationally
accepted supplier of components around the reactor.
