## Summary

The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority has issued a tender for the incineration of radioactive waste. This tender falls under the services category and involves the management of waste generated by the Joint European Torus (JET) and other research facilities on the UKAEA Culham site. The estimated contract value is £200,000, with a contract duration of 720 days. The tender is open for submission until the 22nd of September 2022.

This opportunity is suitable for businesses providing radioactive waste services and refuse incineration services. Interested suppliers must comply with the selection criteria outlined in the procurement documents. The United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, acting as the buyer, is overseeing this procurement process. Businesses in the radioactive waste management industry are well-suited to compete for this contract and should closely follow the submission guidelines provided on the UKAEA website.

## Notice

UKAEA manages the Joint European Torus (JET) on behalf of the European Commission, as a result of which, as well as associated experiments, radioactive waste is generated. In addition, there are other research facilities on the UKAEA Culham site which generate small amounts of radioactive waste relating to materials testing or wider fusion energy research. Some of this waste has higher potential for contamination from activation products. Waste to be included in this incineration contract will be soft combustible material, hard plastic materials and wood packaged primarily into steel 200ltr drums or fiber kegs. Aqueous & organic waste contained within plastic packages of varying volume (20L up to 1000L IBC) which may sometimes be over-drummed to facilitate transport. Some of the wastes (primarily liquids) are classified as dangerous goods for transportation.
