Practically every country in the world uses radioactive sources; the radiation they emit can be used for beneficial purposes in many areas of development. Once these radioactive sources have reached the end of their useful life, they must be carefully managed in order to guarantee safe management solutions without losing sight of the permanent requirement to protect present and future generations and the environment from risks presented by this waste.
The approach adopted by CNESTEN in collaboration with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to set up a system for processing sealed radioactive sources Category 3 waste is the dismantling of these sources, while respecting the safety requirements and ensuring the conditioning and storage of this Sources under prescribed safety conditions. The process of dismantling is planned and executed safely to minimize the risks of radiation exposure to workers and the environment. the dismantling process is carried out with appropriate equipment and procedures in place to minimize the risk of exposure to radiation and ensure compliance with regulations and standards. The main steps of this approach will be developed in this present work.
