Safety for future generations 
In the storage of radioactive waste, the safety aspect is of enormous importance. In view of its extremely harmful effect and the fact that it cannot be completely disposed of, it has to be removed permanently and safely from all contact with human life. The long half-life values of some radionuclides require their safe storage for thousands of years.

The storage of radioactive and toxic waste makes the highest demands  
In addition to the planning and construction of mining facilities, SIEMAG TECBERG has also been engaged for years in the technologically demanding field of radioactive and toxic-waste storage.
Close cooperation with research institutes, companies possessing experience in this field and the operators of nuclear facilities ensures the best possible solutions which are well coordinated technically and scientifically. We would be pleased to show you some of our reference projects.

The main emphasis of our planning is on:
- Hoisting machinery
- Loading and unloading equipment
- Equipment for depositing waste in final storage 
 

Our experience in handling radioactive and toxic waste and our practical know-how in general plant layout from design to production, delivery and installation provide the platform for specialised handling operations requiring the financing of large-scale projects.

In close collaboration with our customers, we have already built a number of handling systems specially designed for sensitive materials. Numerous practical tests have demonstrated the expert implementation and practical efficiency of the systems planned and constructed by us.
We have designed, produced and delivered a number of components for the safe disposal of radioactive waste. These include:


- transfer casks
- cumulative transport casks
- special cranes for handling transfer casks
- roller-conveyor equipment, lifting and loading devices
- radiation-protection and operating panels for hot cells including blind and machine plugs
- devices for packaging surge bins, filling box, tablet bins with outward-transfer box
- bore-hole pipes including sample types for HAW moulds functional models

Our qualified personnel ensure safe and correct assembly and installation. Following start-up, our reliable customer service guarantees optimum availability in the use of our machinery and safe disposal of radioactive waste.
