Cavendish Nuclear, a wholly owned subsidiary of Babcock International Group, welcomed delegates from Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) and JANUS, a leading technical consultancy in the country’s nuclear energy sector, to the headquarters in Warrington. The delegation also travelled to Staffordshire to meet the team at international technology company, Lucideon.
Cavendish Nuclear and Lucideon recently entered into an agreement, to explore advancements in geopolymer technology and its applications across the nuclear sector to address global decommissioning challenges, with an initial focus on nuclear waste management and decommissioning in the Japanese market.
Both companies signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU), to bring together Cavendish Nuclear’s engineering expertise in nuclear decommissioning and environmental clean-up works, combined with Lucideon’s MIDAR? geopolymer technology.
