  • To qualify the equipment via vibrating table tests, according to the transferred spectra
  • To consider high-activity effluents (liquids and sludge)
  • To create double casing lines with drip recovery
  • To provide for the taking of mud-effluent samples via a needle in the process line, and the taking of liquid samples via a needle in a jug
