The Game Changers project refining optical techniques for the remote detection of hydrogen has moved into an exciting new phase. The Fraunhofer Centre for Applied Photonics (FCAP) has been involved with Game Changers since 2017 during which time it has developed an initial concept for the long range detection of…
Electronics experts Sensor Driven have devised unique technology that considerably extends the life of battery powered sensors – a technology that could hold enormous potential for Sellafield which needs to track the behaviour of stored nuclear waste for up to 100 years. The same technology delivers benefits across a wide…
More than 350 delegates attended an event at the Energus centre, Cumbria, highlighting the challenges and opportunities for robotics and artificial intelligence, their capabilities and cultural impact. Delivering Change through Robotics at Sellafield was hosted by Game Changers and the Robotics and Artificial Intelligence for Nuclear (RAIN) Hub. RAIN was…
Rawwater Engineering Company, whose specialist alloy seals for the oil and gas sector are being adapted to support Sellafield decommissioning challenges, has announced a contract that will take the company into the Japanese nuclear sector. Major Japanese energy operator Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO) is to explore the use of…
Sellafield’s constant quest for safer, more efficient ways of working has received an exciting boost from a group of Glasgow-based researchers. The Fraunhofer Centre for Applied Photonics (FCAP) is developing an innovative approach to the problem of remote hydrogen detection which may have important potential for the world-wide nuclear industry….
Event to present opportunities for robotics and artificial intelligence within Sellafield and to showcase cutting-edge robotic technology. The Robotics and Artificial Intelligence for Nuclear (RAIN) Hub, in collaboration with Game Changers, will host a demonstration event on Thursday 19th September, 2019, at the Energus venue, Workington, Cumbria. This event will…
During an event held in May at Strathclyde University’s Technology and Innovation Centre, Sellafield issued a call for innovative ways of addressing the challenges of POCO. Post Operational Clean Out (POCO) is the process that takes place when a nuclear plant has reached the end of its operating life and…
