Recycling, metal recycling and steel industry
Sensec offers a complete range of radiation detection systems to protect your business and detect hazardous radioactive materials, as well as comply with national and local environmental regulations. Solutions include gamma radiation detection, gamma spectrometry, isotope identification, neutron detection, mixed detector design and custom software solutions.
The offering consists of a range of radiation detection solutions to effectively detect shielded and unshielded sources. The solutions consist of vehicle portals, gripper detectors, analysis instruments and handheld detectors.
Metal recycling
Operating a metal recycling center involves handling a variety of materials from different origins. To maintain the quality of the materials being handled, a system is required that can reliably detect all low-level radioactive sources that could cause shipments to be rejected.
Waste / Landfill / Waste-to-energy
Whether your business transports municipal waste, operates a landfill, or converts waste to energy, you need to be vigilant about the possibility of radioactive contamination. Accidental environmental contamination comes in many forms, whether it’s discarded radioactive meters, unlabeled medical waste, contaminated material from industrial demolition sites, or soil and topsoil from mining operations.
Steelworks and foundries
Sensec has been working with steel mills and foundries for over ten years to prevent the accidental melting of scattered radiation sources and other radioactive materials. Sensec's unique and innovative approach to designing and customizing systems that meet customers' unique needs and stringent requirements has helped establish Sensec as the technical innovator within the steel, foundry and scrap industries in Sweden.
Sewage treatment plants and wastewater
When radioactive isotopes used in medical examinations/treatments in hospitals leave the body and are released into municipal sewage systems, they accumulate and give rise to higher levels of exposure. Also from industry, naturally occurring radioactive material can be released into municipal sewage systems through, for example, wastewater, dust and sludge. Here, preventive solutions are needed for handling waste materials contaminated with radioactivity.
