Investigations were undertaken into the thermal treatment of beryllium and tungsten to see if these materials can be detritiated in the Material Detritiation Facility (MDF) at UKAEA, allowing for the declassification of intermediate level waste (ILW) to low level waste (LLW). When heated in oxygen, both tungsten and beryllium readily oxidise, with …

Operations in extreme and hostile environments such as offshore oil and gas, nuclear decommissioning, nuclear facilities maintenance, deep mining, space exploration, and subsea applications require the execution of sophisticated tasks. In nuclear environments, robotic systems have advanced significantly over the past years but still suffer from ta…
