Project Overview: 

The Project is the modification of an existing process facility and construction of new facilities located on URENCO’s site in Capenhurst, Cheshire (UK).  URENCO Nuclear Stewardship Limited (UNS) is a UK subsidiary of URENCO which undertakes management of nuclear materials, decommissioning and recycling. UNS provides services to the United Kingdom’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA), including the storage and management of legacy uranium hexafluoride (UF6) which is stored at URENCO’s site in Capenhurst, UK. The legacy UF6 material originated from a number of sources and as a result contains different qualities and concentrations of contamination. The legacy UF6 material is stored in 11,250 cylinders which are up to 60 years old and due to deterioration in cylinder condition a solution is required for re-processing the material for safe long-term storage.  In order to provide a solution for this legacy material, UNS has proposed the design and construction of a Legacy Tails Separation Facility (LTSF).  The LTSF project involves the modification of an existing facility  on the Capenhurst site to enable the processing of the legacy cylinders. The primary goals of the LTSF processing activities are to transfer the contents of the legacy cylinders into new compliant cylinders and to separate the contaminants from the UF6 to enable onward processing. The resulting clean material, in new compliant cylinders, can then either be sent to other facilities for enrichment or to URENCO’s Tails Management Facility (TMF) for deconversion.

The Project scope includes the planning of Front End Engineering Design (FEED), design optioneering, production of a basic design and delivery of a FEED. Subject to successful completion of FEED, there is the potential for a follow-on EPCM contract to be awarded.  The Project will be executed with a consultant organisation who are experienced in the design and management of risk, safety cases and permissioning/licensing of UK Nuclear facilities.  The design consultant is located in Warrington, Cheshire (UK) and we have a shared project office. The role will primarily be based at the project office however travel to the project site location (Capenhurst) will also be required. Flexibility in work location includes a minimum of three days per working from the project office and/or site.
