More recently – namely on April 26, we recalled another sad date: 33rd anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster. Third century … This is the third century human civilization eliminate the consequences of the fatal mistake!
Worth reminding that after the accident it was accumulated a large amount of radioactive wastes at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. In addition to them, in connection with the start of works for dismantling the infamous 4th power unit and decommissioning of units №№ 1-3, in coming years it is expected the delivery of additional volume of contaminated metal structures and other materials that after decontamination can be reused. In order to automate the process for the release of the said metal from regulatory control under the auspices of the European Commission the project “Creating the facility to release materials from regulatory control on the Chernobyl NPP (U4.01/11E)”.
As a result, from April 29 to May 3, 2019 representatives of “Ukratominstruments” corporation participated in the factory tests of the main equipment of the above mentioned project which was held in the Czech Republic, at the premises of the “VF as” company. The test was attended by representatives of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and the European Commission.
During the tests, special attention was paid directly to the stationary unit for the release, namely- FRM-03: the basic functions for the measurement and identification of the contamination degree of radioactive materials was demonstrated. Also participants were shown the work of installation of security systems. In general, the tests were successful. The follow-up stage is delivery of the equipment to the site, installation, commissioning, acceptance testing on site. But this will be provided in the following news. Keep an eye on the process!
Thus, not without pride we can state that the “Ukratominstruments” corporation retains membership in a very prestigious club of the liquidators of the Chernobyl disaster.
Therefore, based on the results of consideration and discussion of the available summary information from the Consultant, Priorities for Beneficiaries and End Users, the exchange of preliminary results, the main objective of the technical meeting of the project was successfully achieved – a clear definition of the next steps to foster the project implementation. The technical meetings initiated by the “Ukratominstruments” Corporation are an effective tool for ensuring the consideration of each expert’s opinion and the formation and implementation of a joint strategy for the successful implementation of each of the further Project Tasks. Consequently, the corporation is approaching the process of organizing and holding joint technical meetings with all seriousness.
In February 2019, the “Ukratominstruments” corporation entered into an agreement with PJSC “Ukrenergomontazh” for the development and implementation of the RMS of the CSFSF. Within the framework of the contract, works on the development of design solutions, operational documentation, preparation for the introduction into operation, personnel training, commissioning, assembly and testing will be carried out.
On March 18, 2019, “Ukratominstruments” corporation started installation works in the framework of the project on transferring of a local boiler-house on the 14A Kupchynsky Street to a biofuel in Ternopil. A large-scale energy saving project involves the use of modern technology that will allow the local community to significantly reduce utility costs.
Therefore, the priorities for all project participants and stakeholders in the framework of Task 2 Project performance are implemented in full. In its turn, this has ensured a gradual transition to the implementation of the following, no less important Project Objectives, namely, the Comprehensive Safety Assessment and the development of a Standardized Project Technical Solution.
