In order to further develop, qualify and implement the Studsvik patented inDRUM technology for the German market GNS and Studsvik have formed a strategic and exclusive cooperation to combine their expertise to tackle the challenge of problematic waste in a safe and efficient way. Studsvik’s inDRUM is a patented technology for the treatment of problematic wastes, such as legacy wastes in aging drums, which results in an inert residue, significant volume reduction and enables drums to be managed with minimal manual handling.

GNS has signed the first contract for casks of the CASTOR® geo series for a boiling water reactor with Kernkraftwerk Leibstadt AG, thus completing the supply of all four nuclear power plants in Switzerland.
