Latest Patents

Alfred N Johnson holds a patent for an "Apparatus, methods, and systems for assaying materials." This invention discloses a combination of detectors that scan for areas of material non-uniformity and assay the type and amount of radioactivity present in the material. The scanning detectors are designed to identify non-uniform levels of radiation emanating from the material. If any non-uniformity is detected, the material is handled according to radioactive material protocols. The remaining material is then subjected to assay. If the material shows no signs of non-uniform radiation emission, assay detectors are employed to evaluate the material. Should the concentration of any radionuclides exceed a predetermined limit, the material is managed with appropriate protocols. If all radionuclides meet the safety limits, the material is deemed safe for release or clearance from radiological controls.
