Applications of Nuclear Technology
Industry
The use of isotopes and radiations in modern industry is of great importance for the development and improvement of processes, for measuring, automation and quality control. Currently, almost all branches of technology use radioisotopes and radiations of diverse forms.
Tracers
- Radioactive substances that are introduced into a determinate industrial process, to detect their trajectory thanks to their radioactive emission.
- This allows the investigation of different variables of the process (flows, filtrations, leaks) in order to obtain information valuable towards extending the life of industrial equipment.
X-rays of the Pieces’ Internal Structure
- This is a quality control application. It’s ....
