Technology ‘Is Needed Now’ to Clean Up Chernobyl
Fires are hardly the only thing impacting nuclear waste. The routine decommissioning of waste from facilities can make radiation levels shift and pose potential harm to the people involved in the decommissioning process. Here, the research team hopes robots and AI can help quickly scan and assess any dangerous changes as they come.
“We really think that these technologies being developed now will really assist with the activity of decommissioning,” he said. “[The technology] is needed now.”
