Orano completes ageing inspections at US dry storage facilities : Waste & Recycling - World Nuclear News
Orano completes ageing inspections at US dry storage facilities : Waste & Recycling - World Nuclear News: Orano NPS has found no corrosion concerns or precursor indications of stress corrosion cracking in 20-year-old stainless steel canisters in use at three US dry storage facilities for used nuclear fuel. Regulatory inspections of the canisters, all of which were loaded into their horizontal, above-ground NUHOMS storage modules more than 20 years ago, were carried out as part of an ageing management programme to verify the NUHOMS system is performing as designed.
