Descriptions
Building on Phase A of the Medical Radioisotope and Research Reactor (MRRR) Project – Verification supply and demand of medical radioisotopes, the Welsh Government Office for Science (WGOS) wishes to procure the services of a consultancy with specific knowledge in:•Nuclear reactor design, build and operation.•Technologies capable of supplying medical radioisotopes.•The medical radioisotope lifecycle from production and purification through to supply and administration.The role of this consultant will be to undertake Phase B of the MRRR Project - The MRRR Optioneering Study The study will undertake an overview of all options capable of providing a secure supply of medical radioisotopes to the UK. Works will likely include but not be limited to the following:•A review of existing and new technologies that may be able to supply medical radioisotopes and assessment of whether they are credible.•An investigation of all other uses for the technologies assessed (for example research applications, material transmutation etc.).•Identification of the demand for neutron source applications, e.g. for targeted neutron research, therapies and industrial uses (i.e. as a source of neutrons for other research, innovation, manufacture).•Review of the nuclear materials research opportunities, afforded by a MRRR, which would apply to power reactors (e.g. fuel research, fuel containment material R&D, etc.).•An analysis of the reactor types currently producing medical radioisotopes (for example open pool and pressurised water, high / low flux etc.) an overview of their construction cost, running costs and their output of medical radioisotopes.•Identification of the funding opportunities associated with the potential development of a MRRR.From these works, the consultancy will provide an Optioneering report summarising the results and identifying a preferred option to be taken forward to Phase C – A detailed investigation and feasibility assessment of the preferred option.The duration of this project is expected to be 3 – 5 months with a budget range of between £80,000 and £95,000.NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at https://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=97231.
