RADXION Radiation Services LLC successfully completed a comprehensive design and radiological assessment for a dedicated radioactive material storage facility intended to house industrial gamma radiography projectors. This project reflects our commitment to providing safe, regulatory-compliant, and optimized shielding solutions for the radiography sector across the UAE and GCC.
Scope of Work
-
Conceptual and detailed design of the storage facility
-
Determination of shielding requirements based on source activity and operational needs
-
Structural and layout planning to ensure secure and efficient storage
-
Dose rate mapping and radiation protection optimization for occupancy and access areas
-
Integration of security measures and emergency response considerations
Safety & Regulatory Compliance
-
Design fully aligned with FANR Regulatory Guide, IAEA SSR-6, and IAEA Safety Standards for storage of radioactive sources
-
Shielding calculations performed using Monte Carlo simulations and deterministic assessments
-
Dose rates ensured to be below FANR regulatory limits for controlled and unrestricted areas
-
Incorporation of ALARA principles throughout the design
Outcome
-
A customized storage solution capable of safely housing multiple Ir-192 projectors
-
Validated dose rates and safety measures for personnel and environment
-
Detailed engineering drawings, radiological shielding reports, and compliance documentation delivered to the client
-
Project approved for regulatory submission and licensing
