Objectives

The Nuclear Technology Centre (NTC) houses a semi-commercial gamma irradiation facility, part of an innovative programme at SHESTCO. Without a doubt, the plant can rightly be described as one of the most modern commercial irradiation plants in the world and the only one of its kind in the West African sub-region. When fully completed, the gamma irradiation facility will have the capacity to treat over 20 metric tons of products daily. For more details, please take a look at NTC brochure.

The gamma irradiation facility will be managed with our technical partner, Siemens, who have vast experience in the management of irradiation plants. International standards of safety and regulations will be strictly adhered to for optimal efficiency and profitability.
