Description: Today, modern and advanced methods are widely used in the nuclear industry and scientific research. During the webinar, participants learned about in-situ leaching — an environmentally friendly method of uranium extraction. The presentation covered the main stages of the technological process and included a comparative assessment of its impact on the environment and human health.
The second presentation focused on the organization and implementation of high-precision isotope system analysis, applicable in both environmental and industrial contexts.
