Laser surface cleaning of simulated radioactive contaminants in various technological environments

Special methods for cleaning surfaces of stainless steel with a coating simulating radioactive contamination have been developed and studied. The removal of simulated surface contamination was performed using lasers in the micron spectral range with pulse durations of 8 ns and 270 fs. Optimal cleaning modes were determined for gas and liquid environments, achieving surface cleaning coefficient of over 90% in a single pass. A correlation between the degree of cleaning in liquids and the viscosity of the environment was discovered. © 2024 Korean Nuclear Society
