Tractebel Engineering implements safe and cost-effective strategies for the management of radwaste and spent fuel for customers with highly diverse constraints and requirements.
As a beneficial start to
radioactive waste management
, you may wish to consult us on ways of minimising the volumes of radwaste produced at the outset. Just as importantly, our experts can streamline your processes for the characterisation of radwaste, support the implementation of appropriate treatment and conditioning processes ranging from supercompaction to vitrification, and advise you on interim storage and final disposal. We handle storage and repository projects in different countries.
And of course, you can rely on our teams to assist you just as efficiently for the
management of spent fuel
, from characterisation to interim storage and final disposal. Using a methodology that takes all your technical and economic criteria into account, we can select the type of installation that best matches your needs. We have, for example, implemented both dry and wet interim storage facilities and have gained wide experience in special design calculations for transport and storage casks. We have also helped to demonstrate the feasibility of spent fuel conditioning for final disposal as an alternative to reprocessing.
