Description

This paper describes the dismantling of a category I self shielded gamma irradiation facility model MPX - γ - 25M. The following specific objectives were established: a) to identify aspects of the insurance contract, human and technical resources b) to assess the radiological situation of the process and c) to analyze the potential radiological extraordinary events in each step of the process by providing the appropriate answers. The assessment of radiological events may serve as a reference for addressing the process of dismantling other similar irradiators. (Author)
