Studsvik has signed an agreement with Ringhals for the treatment of three steam generators and two reactor pressure vessel heads. The objective of the treatment, which will take place at Studsvik’s facilities, is substantial reduction of the volume of radioactive waste that would otherwise all have to be stored and cleaning and subsequent recycling of most of the metal in the large components. Delivery to Studsvik will be in 2011 and treatment is expected to be completed in 2012. The total order value is about SEK 50 million.

“The agreement with Ringhals is further confirmation of Studsvik’s world-leading position in the area of waste treatment of large end-of-life components from the nuclear industry, such as steam generators, turbines and heat exchangers. We are very pleased that the treatment concept and technology we have developed have proved to meet the requirements imposed by Ringhals as regards safety, environment and technical results,” comments Magnus Groth, CEO and President of Studsvik AB.
