TECHNOLOGY LICENSING OPPORTUNITY
Eu-152/154 Contamination Training Tiles
Eu-152/154 Sol-Gel glass particles are embedded in a durable substrate for safer emergency response training in controlled contaminated areas.
Opportunity: Idaho National Laboratory (INL), managed and operated by Battelle Energy Alliance, LLC (BEA), is offering to explore a license and/or collaborative research agreement to commercialize these contamination training tiles. This technology transfer opportunity is part of a dedicated effort to convert government-funded research into job opportunities, businesses, and, ultimately, an improved way of life for the American people.
Overview: INL supports training personnel, technology evaluation, and demonstration for federal agencies responsible for emergency response and the U.S. nuclear forensics mission. Private companies predominantly train the municipal response community. Training with actual radioactive materials poses challenges due to their biological and environmental radiotoxicity. Training venues typically include localized indoor and outdoor large area RDD. These properties restrict their use in training to sealed sources. Currently, no practical way exists to modify or configure sealed sources to simulate large-area radiological contamination environments.
Description: INL researchers have developed a solution using europium 152/154 sol-gel glass particulate encapsulated within a robust, walkable substrate resembling standard floor tiles or door mats. Multiple substrates can be produced and placed throughout the training venue to create a realistic large-area contamination environment. Eu-152/154 tiles can be made with similar or varying activities to simulate consistent contamination deposition or hot spots. After training, the Eu-152/154 tiles can be collected, stored, and reused for future training events. With half-lives of 1.3 to 13.5 years, Eu-152/154 tiles offer a cost-effective and safe metho...
