LLNL SEEKS PARTNERS FOR RAD DECONTAMINATION TECH
Terror Response Technology Report
September 6, 2006 Wednesday
Vol. 2 No. 18
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) is offering the
opportunity for partnership and licensing of a new technology for
selective and effective radionuclide decontamination of urban transit
infrastructure. LLNL says that usually radionuclide decontamination
agents have been developed and used in sterile, nuclear power
environments but that the lab has developed technologies to
understand the chemical and physical properties of surfaces found
in the urban environment pertaining to public transportation and
address interference, specificity and efficiency problems found in
commercial nuclear decontamination agents. Additionally, LLNL hopes
to partner with a U.S. business and Armenia's Yerevan Scientific
Research Institute through the Department of Energy's Global
Initiatives for Proliferation Prevention program to develop coatings
and other vehicles for the immobilization and removal of radioactive
contaminants. Sol. No. FBO138-06. Respond by Sept. 22. Contact:
Connie Pitcock, administration, 925-422-1072, [email protected].
