Description : The Immobilisation Science Laboratory (ISL) is a world-leading centre for nuclear materials and nuclear waste immobilisation research. The ISL provides access to world-class expertise and facilities, thus enabling top-rate research in nuclear waste materials development and durability testing. This is achieved through a multi-material focus, encompassing ceramics, glass and cements, coupled with an understanding of their durability in aqueous media. Through EPSRC investment the ISL will be developing a national user facility (HADES) for the materials science of radioactive waste management and disposal as part of the Sheffield hub. This will build on previous investment of £3M by the Department of Energy and Climate Change and University of Sheffield to establish the allied MIDAS facility.A dedicated Glovebox system for the handling and processing of uranium and thorium will strengthen the world-leading centre for nuclear materials research at the University of Sheffield.
