nandin - one year on

It’s been one year since nandin opened its doors. Let's take a look back at what we've achieved so far before setting our sights on the future.

ISMR plant

The evolution of molten salt reactors

Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are nuclear reactors that use a fluid fuel in the form of very hot fluoride or chloride salt rather than the solid fuel used in most reactors. Since the fuel salt is liquid, it can be both the fuel to produce heat and the coolant to transport the heat to a power plant.

ansto-gentech-generator

Nuclear medicine processing and distribution

ANSTO’s nuclear medicine processing and distribution facility assembles, loads, tests and distributes a range of nuclear medicine products, including Mo-99. The Mo-99 is dispensed into an ANSTO radiopharmaceutical Gentech® Generator where it decays to Tc-99m.

Governance at ANSTO

Governance

ANSTO is a highly regulated organisation. Our governance system and processes provide critical guidance to effectively manage ANSTO’s activities. This section outlines the processes and systems that are in place to provide assurance to Government, our stakeholders and the community that we are working within our regulated and mandated requirements.

Sharing groundwater expertise

ANSTO expertise provides much-needed information about groundwater resources in the Mozambique capital and district.

New technique to improve global climate models

An investigation that set out to resolve some of the uncertainty in the sources and quantities of pollutants reaching Antarctica has produced a new experimental technique to identify and characterise recently terrestrially-influenced air reaching Antarctica.

ANSTO supports mining and minerals processing industries

Capabilities

For over 40 years, ANSTO has provided consultancy and process development services to the mining and minerals processing industries in Australia and globally.

Gentech Generator

Gentech Generator

Developed by ANSTO’s predecessor the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (known as the AAEC) in the late 1960s, the Technetium-99m Generator revolutionised nuclear medicine imaging in Australia by enabling imaging procedures to be performed not only in major capital cities but throughout regional and rural Australia.

Redefining measurements

ANSTO is part of collaboration conducting experiments to redefine the kilogram linking it to a fundamental constant of nature.
