Innovation in Analytical Services, Technologies and Techniques
Event Information
Description
Game Changers, Sellafield Ltd, the National Physical Laboratory and GAU Radioanalytical invite you to a one day event where you can bring your innovative technologies and techniques to meet the challenges of nuclear analytical services.
Innovation in Analytical Services – Supporting the Nuclear Decommissioning Mission presents challenges around four areas of interest to Sellafield's Analytical Services teams:
- Development of existing technologies and techniques.
- Deployment of new technologies and techniques.
- Use of emerging computer-based technologies.
- Utilisation of new engineering materials and design philosophy.
Challenge statements for each of these have been produced designed to stimulate thinking and attract innovative technologies and techniques to this area of operation.
THE CHALLENGE
Sellafield’s Analytical Services Teams are looking for opportunities to improve on the existing technologies in order to meet future demands. The challenge is to explore and develop new techniques and provide fit for purpose instruments capable of supporting both current and future analytical requirements.
EVENT FORMAT
The day will introduce personnel from Sellafield's Integrated Research Teams, presenting the specifics of these challenges at interactive presentations and workshops. Delegates are invited to contribute in discussions and bring ideas and solutions from their own industry sector and organisations.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
The event is anticipated to be of particular interest to businesses and academia in the laboratory technology sector, including instrumentation, control and automation.
Game Changers and Sellafield Ltd also welcome interest from organisations operating in other sectors (oil and gas, biosciences etc) who might bring their innovations and technologies into the nuclear decommissioning arena.
There is no requirement for previous experience of working within the nuclear or decommissioning sectors, and we positively welcome those wishing to attend who may bring technologies and solutions from other industries.
A series of challenge statements supporting this event are published on the Game Changers website, with applications to the initiative invited from any business organisations, individuals or academia who believe they can make a positive contribution to this key area of the nuclear decommissioning programme.
