SOGUERO GONZALEZ, Dania et al. Methodology for the dismantling of an investigation of irradiators type selfshielded MPX--25M. Nucleus [online]. 2010, n.47, pp. 30-36. ISSN 0864-084X.
ABSTRACT This paper describes the dismantling of a category I selfshielded gamma irradiation facility model MPX--25M. The following specific objectives were established: a) to identify aspects of the insurance contract, human and technical resources b) to assess the radiological situation of the process and c) to analyze the potential radiological extraordinary events in each step of the process by providing the appropriate answers. The assessment of radiological events may serve as a reference for addressing the process of dismantling other similar irradiators.
