Radioactive Material Storage Facility for Gamma Radiography Projectors
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
