Safely manage and dispose of Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) waste with Lucion’s comprehensive services, ensuring compliance and environmental protection.
Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material (NORM) is present in many natural resources and can become concentrated through various industrial processes, such as oil and gas production, mining, and water treatment. When these materials are no longer in use, they become NORM waste, which requires specialised handling and disposal to protect human health and the environment.
