Fraunhofer CAP Develops Laser Technology for Remote Hydrogen Leak Detection in Nuclear Waste Storage

HYDROGEN

Fraunhofer CAP has collaborated with the UK nuclear industry to develop a laser detection system for hydrogen leaks from nuclear waste storage. The £1.5M project, funded by Sellafield's Game Changers program, enables large area scanning and hydrogen concentration mapping. A more compact, hand-held version is in development, funded by Innovate UK, with a completion target of 2029.
