Characterisation of material and waste
Background
We are interested in new technologies and techniques that improve our understanding of our wastes in terms of its radiological, chemical and physical properties and its location and quantity. We are particularly interested in rapid, in situ, non-destructive characterisation techniques that can be operated remotely.
