This project aims to develop a range of products for 1) assessing levels of radioactivity in water which have previously been unachievable in real-time. 2) Measurement of Gaseous Tritium down to free release levels. This is of interest to various nuclear establishments, including the Nuclear Fusion industry.We already have a lot of interest from Japan where they have a legacy from the Fukashima nuclear facility was in the form of Tritiated water. Current technology means that samples have to be taken from effluent -- rivers, lakes & sea , then analysed in a Laboratory.BIC Technology with limited resources and working closely with the National Physical Laboratory have made prototypes capable of achieving detection of low levels of beta emitters in water continuously.Because of the design and build of the detector we are able to use the same device (patented technology) for measuring air samples & liquid samples with minor modifications.Assistance from Innovate UK will enable us to carry out further required tests for type testing & quantitative analysis. This could lead to the manufacturing of portable & installed equipment for this purpose and address an international market. We would get orders tomorrow if we had a working instrument at the required low levels.Nuclear licensed sites would benefit from long term cost savings of the current technology employed by these sites and provide instant alerts for emergency situations e.g. leakage in to the sea or water table.BIC Technology already have strong links with Academic institutions, which we would hope to expand on by funding post graduate projects. The project will have a positive effect on employment & apprenticeships with benefits to UK suppliers \*

该项目旨在开发一系列产品以供1）评估以前实时无法实现的水的放射性水平。 2）测量气态tri缩至自由释放水平。这对包括核融合行业在内的各种核场所都引起了人们的关注。我们已经对日本有很多兴趣，在那里，他们从福岛核设施中拥有遗产是有琐碎的水的形式。当前的技术意味着必须取出样品 - 河流，湖泊和海洋，然后在实验室中进行分析。BIC技术有限的资源并与国家物理实验室紧密合作，使原型能够连续地检测到水中的βemitter较低水平的beta beta型号，以便与探测器进行较小的示例（以探测器的范围）（我们能够使用相同的技术）（我们能够使用相同的设备（我们能够使用较小的设备）（PATENTECTION）（PATENTECT）修改。英国Innovate的助攻将使我们能够进行进一步的类型测试和定量分析所需的测试。这可能会导致为此目的制造便携式和安装设备并解决国际市场。明天如果我们在所需的低级别上有一个工作工具，我们将获得订单。核许可的网站将受益于这些站点所采用的当前技术的长期成本，并为紧急情况提供即时警报，例如BIC技术已经与学术机构建立了牢固的联系，我们希望通过为研究生项目提供资金来扩展这一点。该项目将对英国供应商的就业和学徒制有积极的影响\*
