Nuclear Transport
Nuclear transport refers to the movement of nuclear materials, such as nuclear fuel, radioactive waste, and isotopes, from one location to another. This process is essential for the operation of nuclear power plants, medical applications, and research facilities. Safety measures are crucial during transport to prevent accidents and ensure the protection of people and the environment.
Transport methods can include specialized vehicles, trains, and ships designed to handle hazardous materials. These transport systems are equipped with secure packaging and monitoring systems to minimize risks. Regulatory agencies, such as the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), set strict guidelines to ensure safe and efficient nuclear transport.
