Delivery of containers for State Corporation "Ukrainian State Corporation "Radon"

"NT-ENGINEERING" LLC, with the financial support of the US Government, provided the enterprises of the State Agency for the Exclusion Zone Management with the equipment and containers for storage and transportation of ionizing radiation sources waste.

On May 27, 2019, the representatives of the company presented the results of the project "Containers for transportation and storage of ionizing radiation sources waste VECTOR II" at the Kyiv State Special Plant. State Special Plant "Central Storage of Radioactive Waste", Kyiv State Special Plant, Dniprovsky State Special Plant, Lviv State Special Plant, Odessa State Special Plant and Kharkiv State Special Plant were equipped with 29 containers, 4 mechanisms for overload of sources and 5 biological protective screens. All equipment and containers are tested and certified in accordance with the rules and regulations of nuclear and radiological safety.

"For the first time in Ukraine, for the last 20 years, such a significant batch of specialized containers, taking into account quantity and nomenclature, have been designed and manufactured" said Vitaly Demianiuk, the chairman of the NT-Engineering LLC Supervisory Board.

"Our devices have undergone complex inspections and tests with the participation of the Regulator, the Certification Center and the Special Laboratory for compliance with the norms of domestic legislation and international standards for the handling of hazardous radioactive materials," said Rostislav Maraykin, Director of NT-Engineering LLC.

The new equipment will provide the state special plants with the opportunity not only to accumulate IRS at their sites, but also to arrange their safe transportation to the Centralized storage of waste ionizing radiation sources located at the Chornobyl exclusion zone. Thanks to the new containers from NT-Engineering, the radiation load will be reduced near the major cities where special plants of the state corporation Radon are located.
