Challenge Fill decommissioned experimental nuclear
pebble bed reactor with cement to achieve long-term stability; limit weight
of filled reactor to enable final placement in an old mine shaft Solution Developed an ultralightweight
cement (0.7 sg) so that the filled reactor could be
shifted by the heaviest crane in Europe; carried out extensive testing to
make sure the new cement could fill all voids and develop required
compressive strength. Results Completed the fill and
placement without safety issues; achieved decommissioning and demobilization
without incident |
