The proposed research will develop generic knowledge in the field of decommissioning engineering that can be used to solve problems associated with nuclear decommissioning. The work will be carried out under the auspices of the Dalton Institute of the University of Manchester and thus a multi-disciplinary approach to the research will be facilitated. Existing nuclear facilities (eg. Magnox, AGR Station, Reprocessing plant, medical waste) present significant challenges with respect to waste management and decommissioning. The research programme will expand and enhance the skill base in nuclear engineering and science in order to meet these challenges. Additionally, the research will provide valuable information for use in future generations of nuclear facilities so as to reduce decommissioning and waste management problems.The impact of the new Chair appointment will be enhanced by interactions with the already established links with industry and in particular with BNFL. Furthermore, the appointee will contribute to the training of research scientists, in an area of research where the demands of industry substantially exceed the availability of individuals with appropriate expertise.

拟议的研究将开发退役工程领域的通用知识，可用于解决与核退役相关的问题。这项工作将在曼彻斯特大学道尔顿研究所的主持下进行，因此将促进多学科的研究方法。现有核设施（如Magnox、AGR站、后处理厂、医疗废物）在废物管理和退役方面提出了重大挑战。该研究计划将扩大和加强核工程和科学的技能基础，以应对这些挑战。此外，该研究将为未来几代核设施提供有价值的信息，以减少退役和废物管理问题。新主席任命的影响将通过与工业界，特别是与BNFL已经建立的联系的互动来加强。此外，被任命者还将在工业界的需求大大超过具备适当专门知识的个人的研究领域为培训研究科学家作出贡献。
