Solutions include gamma radiation detection, gamma spectrometry, isotope identification. Neutron detection, mixed detector design and customized software solutions.

 

The offering consists of a variety of radiation detection solutions to efficiently detect shielded and unshielded sources. The solutions consist of vehicle gantries, grabber detectors, analysis instruments and handheld detectors.

Metal recycling

Operating a metal recycling center involves handling a variety of materials with varying origins. To maintain the quality of the materials being handled, a system is needed 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 must be vigilant about the possibility of radioactive contamination. Accidental environmental contamination comes in many forms, whether it is discarded radioactive meters, unlabeled medical waste, contaminated materials 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 stray 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.

Treatment plants & Wastewater

When radioactive isotopes used in medical examinations/treatments in hospitals leave the body and are released into municipal sewage systems, they accumulate and produce higher levels of exposure. Also from industries, naturally occurring radioactive material can be released into municipal sewage systems through, for example, wastewater, dust and sludge. Here, preventive solutions are needed for the management of waste materials contaminated with radioactivity.
