Activity

The Belgian Nuclear Research Centre, SCK•CEN is one of the largest research facilities in Belgium with laboratories in Mol and registered office in Brussels. Over 600 employees work on the research of peaceful industrial and medical applications of ionising radiation. Our purpose: to maintain and expand a centre of excellence for nuclear research. The research activities of SCK•CEN are focussed on:

  • The safety of nuclear installations;
  • Safe treatment and disposal of radioactive waste
  • Protection of man and environment against ionising radiation
  • Management of fissile and other strategic materials.
This knowledge and experience are spread through education and communication. SCK•CEN takes into account the societal implications of its research in pursuit of sustainable development. The Nuclear Research Centre also employs its know-how and infrastructure for service provision to the government, the industrial and the medical sector. Furthermore SCK•CEN is partner in several international research programmes.
