BELGOPROCESS STAND: 28
Belgoprocess brings 50 years of operational experience in
waste management and in decommissioning of nuclear
facilities. We are experts in minimising the amount of
radioactive waste produced and maximising clearance of
decontaminated material while optimising operational costs.
Our integrated nuclear waste management and
decommissioning services include:
• Turnkey solutions for processing and storage of radioactive
wastes and for decommissioning nuclear facilities,
including alpha-contaminated facilities and installations
• Advice on decontamination and dismantling
techniques/methods and on waste processing techniques,
taking into account the stringent safety requirements of
any national or international regulations
• Feasibility tests and demonstration runs in existing
facilities
• Research, development and technical demonstration of
process control techniques
• Characterisation, both chemical, physical and
radiological, of waste streams
• Assistance in the commissioning of nuclear processing
facilities
• Problem solving of existing waste treatment facilities and
optimisation of implemented solutions.
• Capability to process foreign waste of different origins in
our installations
Belgoprocess knows how to decide on strategies for processing
waste and for decommissioning. We also know how to carry
out the careful balancing act between criteria such as worker
dose, environmental impact, financial aspects, technical
constraints, waste storage and disposal capabilities and public
acceptance. This experience, combined with our focus on
40
client-oriented post-commissioning services, make us unique in
the industry.
From providing consulting services in specific areas to
managing entire projects, we are committed to our clients and
to doing the job right, the first time around.

<strong>The</strong> challenge of decommissioning the UK’s civil nuclear
assets is a challenge that has been embraced by BNS Nuclear
Services. Our decommissioning business has experience in the
retrieval, processing and management of active materials on
sites across the UK and overseas, with projects ranging from
concept design to on site operations and services. Areas of
expertise include:
• Retrieval, analysis and segregation of solid waste.
• Retrieval of sludges and liquids.
• Versatile encapsulation process combining solid and
liquid wastes.
• Ion exchange and effluent management.
• Safety Case support and legislative compliance.
• Waste storage solutions.
• On-site decommissioning services.
In developing the above capabilities, BNS Nuclear Services
have drawn on our strengths in mechanical handling and
