HEU Removal from MNSR Reactors

This artifact is a slide presentation about spent HEU core removal of a Chinese-built Miniature Neutron Source Reactor (MNSR). The presentation describes the Skoda VPVR/M cask in detail and the auxiliary equipment needed to safely remove the spent HEU and transport it. Removal activities of MNSR spent HEU from Ghana and Nigeria MNSRs, and air transport from these countries to China are discussed. The International MNSR Training Facility in Ghana is also mentioned.
