Our experts offer you comprehensive services in waste management, which are individually customized to your operations.

  • Waste characterization
  • Safety analysis
  • Risk mitigation
  • Optimization of operations
  • Software engineering

From the combined experience of our engineers, scientists and developers, practice-oriented programs for supporting and securing complex processes for waste management have been developed:

  • Residue flow tracking and control system:
    These program systems monitor and control residues and radioactive waste during the dismantling and operation of nuclear facilities.
  • Activity data acquisition and evaluation system:
    For the collection of radiological measurements and process data outside the central control room of a nuclear power plant, mobile and stationary measuring points serve as radiation protection. The system can also be used for the collection and processing of other measurements in nuclear power plants and conventional industrial facilities.
  • Improved fire alarm systems:
    Fire alarm systems are improved through the complete recording of all fire safety-relevant events and permanent monitoring - particularly for large-scale chemical plants, warehouses or nuclear power plants.
