content: OMG that's gorgeous. We should have a group buy and create our own EEVBlog Nuclear Reactor(On closer inspection seems to mostly be CCTV monitoring and two robotic arm controls... but still cool nevertheless)

content: So this is the new government decomissioning programme. Flog off bits ofradioactive junkvaluable equipment to unsuspecting punters who will take it away, instead of paying someone lots of money to bury it in a very deep hole in lots of concrete.As a UK taxpayer, I thoroughly approve - unless anyone living within 50 miles of me buys it...

When they were removing equipment from Ignalina plant in Lithuania (it was also mentioned in Chernobyl series, btw), all the equipment was measured and could be taken to utilization facilities once permits were issued and removal allowed.Some of the stuff ended up with this guy:http://www.vabolis.lt/2017/05/24/atominis-slamstas/
