Environmental Radioactivity
We have a full range of capabilities related to the assessment of routine and accidental discharges from nuclear facilities. We have a sizeable team with experience in the area and can therefore respond to unexpected requirements for support. Our technical capabilities lie in the following areas:
- Modelling the transport and dispersal of radionuclides in the environment
- Calculation of consequences of discharges by means of a Range of Performance Measures
- Estimation of source terms for accidental releases from nuclear facilities
- Selection of parameter values, based on recommendations by national and international organisations, and supplemented by detailed knowledge of the current literature.
- Experienced with a range software and spreadsheet tools, both developed by ourselves and other industry standards, including PC CREAM, PC-COSYMA, and CONDOR
- Development of strategies for monitoring and characterisation of releases
- Communication and the production of documents for regulatory submission.
