Radiation protection and siting

Protecting people and the environment against the harmful effects of radiation requires the implementation of suitable and effective measures in construction, commissioning, operation and decommissioning of nuclear facilities and in the handling of radioactive substances. The related measures equally affect the population as well as the staff at the nuclear facilities that emit radiation and the patients of nuclear medical applications.

TÜV NORD Nuclear offers comprehensive and independent support in the assessment and inspection of such measures. Its experience in a wide range of applications ensures optimum solutions to keep the radiation exposure of patients, personnel and the population as low as is reasonably achievable (ALARA principle).
