Tender Results of National Nuclear Laboratory

Integrated Intelligent Safe Environment Feasibility Study-UKNNL requires consultancy support until the end of March 2025 to produce a feasibility study. This study will investigate the development of an AI-based system that allows safe, symbiotic interaction between humans and autonomous systems. Awarded via further competition under UKNNL UNIVERSITY SUPPLY CHAIN FRAMEWORK (NNLC321)

Particle Detector Radiation Testing-UKNNL are working with a University to develop and trial a muon particle detector to be used to image shielded boxes during decommissioning activities at Sellafield. Whilst in operation the detector will not be shielded and as such will be exposed to the full radiation field from the waste boxes. As part of the research to determine the detectors suitability, it is necessary to understand the functionality of the electronic detector modules when exposed to radiation. After a successf...
