As the £8.5 million Integrated Innovation in Nuclear Decommissioning competition heads into the final stages, NDA Head of Technology Melanie Brownridge invites the 5 collaborative projects to contribute blog posts outlining their work. The competition, funded by the NDA and government partners, aims to inspire the development of new technologies that can tackle challenges in some of Sellafield's most radioactive hotspots.
A series of new university-based research projects are now under way as part of a £9.4 million initiative to tackle some of the technical challenges at the earliest UK nuclear sites and deal with the radioactive waste produced.
