Description
The WAM-300 Radioactive Waste Characterization System is an advanced waste measurement system developed for the quantitative and qualitative characterization of radioactive waste contained within drums.
The system is utilized for the determination of radionuclides present in radioactive waste drums of various types and sizes, the calculation of total activity, and the more reliable evaluation of waste content. It offers an effective solution, particularly for the analysis of waste with unknown composition.
The WAM-300 analyzes spectrometric data obtained from each volume segment separately by dividing the measured waste drum into volume segments. This structure assists in reducing the effects of non-homogeneous material distribution within the drum and enables more accurate activity assessment.
Through an integrated weighing system, density measurement, peak attenuation correction, and Fast-Scan function, the measurement process is conducted in a more controlled and reliable manner. High-resolution gamma spectrometry analysis can be performed with the HPGe detector infrastructure.
The WAMIS data and control software supports measurement initiation, system control, calibration procedures, measurement archiving, and reporting processes. It can be configured for different drum types, activity levels, and handling requirements according to customer needs.
