Nuclear Technologies
Decades of experience in nuclear research spanning weapons detection and nonproliferation, power generation, and medicine has resulted in a broad array of patented PNNL technologies. These innovations make nuclear power reactors safer and reduce waste and costs. They help protect workers from the biological effects of radiation and help detect and remove contaminants from the environment. We also have technologies that measure ultra-low levels of radionuclides, which are vital in supporting the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons of mass destruction. For nuclear medicine applications, this portfolio includes processes and methods for producing high-quality, ultra-pure radioisotopes that are used to successfully treat cancer, diagnose diseases, and enable personalized medicine techniques.
