As of the end of March, 2021, a public enquiry would have been held into the construction of the RECUMO plant on the SCK CEN site in Mol. In the proposed plant, the research centre will purify the radioactive residues resulting from the production of medical radioisotopes. “Radioisotopes of that type are indispensable in the fight against cancer and other diseases and thanks to this installation, we can guarantee their supply. The public enquiry forms an important step in the realisation of the RECUMO project,” said Eric van Walle, Director-General of SCK CEN.
