Nuclear waste management

Nuclear waste management

We can help to significantly reduce the waste volumes and waste management costs at nuclear power plants by optimising the whole process from waste collection to final disposal.

Our services:

Consultation in waste treatment, storage and disposal

Our services cover all phases of treatment for dry and liquid waste.

Design and consultation of a Nuclide Removal System (NURES)

More about NURES®

Design and projects of spent fuel intermediate storage

We have developed a competitive concept for the interim storage of spent fuel upon experience based on Olkiluoto and Loviisa nuclear power plants, both in operation since1980. 

Expertise in final disposal of radioactive waste

The final repository for low and intermediate level waste of the Loviisa nuclear power plant was designed and implemented by Fortum. All waste, including decommissioning waste, will be disposed of in the power plant site's bedrock.

Decommissioning planning

Fortum has drawn up a full decommissioning plan for the Loviisa nuclear power plant including a realistic cost estimate. This has given us a good basis for similar design work on other VVER and LWR plants.
