Remote techniques for hazardous environments. Proceedings

Remote techniques are essential to many industries where hazardous environments are an inherent part of everyday operations. The latest developments in remote technologies and the practical applications of these techniques worldwide are presented in this book. Applications covered include repair and refurbishment, inspection, decommissioning, operation and maintenance, and waste management. Although concentrating on techniques developed for nuclear industry applications, much of this research and development has great relevance for non-nuclear applications, such as in the offshore, medical and petrochemical industries.
