Asse GmbH delivers no longer needed radiation sources to Federal State Collecting Depot
Radioactive operational waste is properly managed.
On 15 December, Asse GmbH delivered radioactive operational waste to the Federal State Collecting Depot in Jülich. The delivered radiation sources do not belong to the waste emplaced in Asse.
Substances that had previously been used for operational radiation protection, e.g. for the calibration of measuring devices, were delivered as radioactive operational waste. The waste was collected by a qualified company and transported according to the provisions of the dangerous goods transport regulations. The protection of the population and the transport staff is ensured. On its premises in Braunschweig, the company will prepare the substances for the transport to the Federal State Collecting Depot.
