Cyclife Sweden, Nyköping facility

Location: Cyclife Sweden AB is located at the Studsvik Industrial site outside Nyköping on the east coast of Sweden.
Employees: 105-staff

Cyclife Sweden has been providing waste treatment services to domestic and international customers for 40 years. All treatment services provided include volume reduction and treatment is always carried out in customer-specific campaigns.

Metals treatment: The metal treatment facility provides a series of services: Segmentation, decontamination, melting (up to 5,000 tons per year), clearance and recycling of produced metal ingots and characterisation and conditioning of secondary waste for return to customer. Large components weighing up to maximum 400 tons and with lengths up to 30 meters can be accepted for treatment. The average recycling rate for the 40,000 tons treated is in a range of 95%.

Thermal treatment of organic waste by incineration or pyrolysis: Dry active waste (plastics, paper, textiles, wood etc.), liquids (oils and water solutions), activated charcoal from filters, and some ion exchange resins. Up to 600 tons per year are treated. All treatment is performed in isolated campaigns to return the residues to the owner.
The pyrolysis facility is fully dedicated to dry active waste from nuclear fuel factories. The aim with the process is to make a breakdown of the organics in a controlled atmosphere and at temperatures which makes it possible to recover the uranium in the ashes after treatment. The uranium in the ashes can then be put back into the nuclear fuel production process.
A high-volume reduction is obtained with both processes.

Material and waste characterisation: Cyclife Sweden has multiple ways to characterise materials and waste :  A well equipped analytical laboratory in which chemical and radiological analyses are performed, secondary waste characterisation station, a highly shielded clearance measurement facility (capacity 2,500 tons per year) and mobile characterisation units for in-field characterisation services.   

Transport: Access to a roll-on roll-off dock within the Studsvik Industrial site in Sweden. The dock enables a unique, exclusive capability to receive materials and large components from all over the world directly into Cyclife Sweden’s nuclear licensed facility.
Safety and security of employees and the environment are the top priority of nuclear industry and Cyclife Sweden AB.

    Radiological Services and Analysis outside nuclear sector

    Cyclife Sweden has, in addition to the nuclear operations operations which handles sealed radioactive sources and radiological material used, generated or found outside the nuclear sector.
     
    The organisation has a long experience in handling radioactive material and provides services like inspection, re-loading and decommissioning of sealed sources as well as characterisation and management of other radioactive material.  Beside this we can offer radiological analyses in our laboratory and advisory services and technical investigations.
     

    Field services and transport

    Transports of radioactive material and field services is an essential part of our operations and is part of the package solution in managing radioactive material.
     
    Cyclife can perform inventory and characterisation of radioactive material at our clients. This can be completed with analyses in our laboratory.
     
    Inspection of industrial sealed sources at our clients is another service we provide.
     
    We help our client to find a transport solution for the specific radioactive material and offer to package in our own approved packages. We prepare the shipment and transport the radioactive material and are thereby responsible for the whole transport chain.

    Disposal of sealed sources and other radioactive material

    Disposal of sealed sources and other radioactive material is our core business. Our typical customers are within the heavy industries, research, universities- and schools and hospitals.
     
    Examples of sealed sources can be smoke detectors, sealed sources used within hospitals and industries. Other radioactive material can be radioactive chemicals, material contaminated with natural or artificial radionuclides.  
     
    The radioactive material is brought to our facility in Studsvik outside Nyköping, and is processed, dismantled and packed into disposal vessels. These are stored at our facility until final disposal in the bedrock. Some radioactive material can be sent for re-use.
     
    Cyclife does also perform re-loading of sealed sources in some industrial equipments. This is done at the customer’s facility.

    Analytical laboratory

    The analysis laboratory’s expertise in analysing both naturally-occurring radioactive material (NORM) and artificial nuclides from the nuclear power industry enables it to offer its services to customers in many different sectors.
     
    The laboratory analyses alpha, beta and gamma radiation in numerous different materials and matrices. This may be solid or liquid material, with different densities and chemical compositions.
     
    Cyclife offers these services to nuclear power stations, as well as municipalities, official authorities, incineration facilities, the mining/steel/pharmaceutical industries, healthcare and many other customers that require these analysis services in, for example, environmental monitoring control programmes within their own facilities.

    Advisory services and Technical investigations

    To some extent advisory services and Technical investigations is a natural part of all radioactive waste management and disposal of radioactive material.
    Sometimes deeper investigations are necessary. Cyclife with its long experience plays an important role to find solutions of customers specific issues.
