Congratulations to the Framatome team who has won this award.
- optimize project duration
- reduce the volume of waste
Used on concrete surfaces, the robot measures, maps and categorizes the contaminated areas (conventional waste, very low level waste, low level waste…). Before, during these opeations, workers were on site in designated areas and potentially working at heigths.
On a pratical point of view, this robot enables to:
- apply the ALARA principle by reducing doses
- reduce the inhalation volume of dusts during on-ite work
This robot also enbles to make financial gains with the reduction of waste volume thanks to a detailed mapping, to reduce the number of operators and to save time on one of the critical path's task.
This Innovatome award, was created by the French nuclear society, to reward doctorate or master students, and young professionals under 35 years old, working in the nuclear field. About 60persons – 12 teams participated to this edition.
Congratulations to the Framatome team.
