In nuclear medicine hospital departments, patients of metabolic therapy and chemotherapy for example can be treated with radioactive isotopes. These radionuclide isotopes, such as IODINE 131 (131I), Fluorine-18 (18F), or Technetium-99m (99mTc), are mainly eliminated from the body via urine in a short time. The urine of the injected patients becomes a radioactive waste and needs to be treated on site in decay tank system.
MEDICAL PROCESS decay tank system is dedicated to assure the decay period in a safe technical room in the hospital. We dimension, and install worldwide if required. MEDICAL PROCESS plant permits to store, secure and control the effluent according to the regulations during the period of the radioactivity decrease.
Once the radioactivity reaches a lower level than the legal limit, a sample of the effluent is tested by the hospital physicist and the tank can be discharged to the common sewage by a simple command from our control box touch screen.
Origin of effluents
Nuclear medicine departments such as, metabolic therapy for thyroid cancer, laboratory preparation stations, brachytherapy, and other industrial liquid waste contaminated with radionuclides.
Theses effluents must be collected in our separative toilets in order to reduce the effluent volume. Then the pipes has to be clearly separated from other waste water or clean water pipes and brought to the technical room.
We help you to define the exact dimensions of the tanks
Custom design depending on architectural constraints
We can install and do commissioning
We provide training to the user’s staff
We provide Monitoring and warranty
