The Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) is commissioning small-scale research to investigate the viability of high-pressure washing for decontaminating UK concrete building materials following a major radiation incident. Defra is the designated Lead Government Department in England for coordinating the recovery from Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear (CBRN) incidents in England. To that end, Defra facilitates UK access to decontamination capabilities for buildings, environment, and infrastructure following a CBRN incident. When not recovering from a CBRN event, Defra develops recovery policy and operational capability by working closely with cross government colleagues, academia, and industry.
The aim of this project is to test the suitability of high-pressure washing procedures to decontaminate UK concrete surfaces contaminated with 85Sr, 137Cs, and 152Eu. This project consists of 2 stages.
The objectives of stage 1 of this project are:
The objectives of stage 2 of this project are:
It is important to note that the duration of stage 1 of the project is 5.5 months. A 6-month extension to the project is available for stage 2, subject to satisfactory completion of stage 1. It is acceptable for Tenderers to submit a tender for stage 1 of the project only.
