Tungsten alloy shield for nuclear research is a jar used for transporting and short-term storage of spent nuclear fuel. Radiation is a kind of energy emitted by radioactive substances in the form of waves or particles. It mainly contains three kinds of rays, which can harm people and cause disease, cancer and death.
As the utility industry matures, more and more spaces are needed to store spent fuel safely. One method developed for storing spent nuclear fuel is dry storage in horizontal storage units, which are shielded storage jars in which containerized spent fuel is stored and periodically tested.
