Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions to produce electricity. Nuclear power can be obtained from nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion reactions. Presently, the vast majority of electricity from nuclear power is produced by nuclear fission of uranium and plutonium in nuclear power plants. Nuclear decay processes are used in niche applications such as radioisotope thermoelectric generators in some space probes such as Voyager 2.

Rope Access Services Range to Nuclear Industry

• Quick set up and removal of ropes & rigging equipment means that the work is completed significantly quicker than traditional methods, making rope access considerably cheaper on a time-costed basis.
• Minimum disruption of daily production & activity means that, in the majority of projects, operations can continue without downtime. Minimum downtime is crucial to production and can save a considerable amount of money.
• Ropes are removed at the end of each shift, which increases security and reduces safety risks, unlike scaffolding or heavy machinery which must remain even after hours.
• Easier access to awkward or narrow spaces. Rope access technicians can access all areas, ensuring the integrity of facilities, components, and equipment is maintained.
• Exterior Inspections – full inspections for buildings or structures to meet maintenance requirements or regulatory compliance.
• Interior Inspections – thorough inspections of building components and structures for regulatory compliance and licensing.
• Cleaning & Hydroblasting – quick and effective cleaning services for stacks, towers, buildings, etc.
• Painting & Coating – turnkey painting & coating services for buildings and their components to assure longevity of the plant and other assets.
• Installations / Modifications to plant systems in order to meet new regulatory requirements.
