6 OPAL Utilisation Neutrons for Science Neutrons for Health Neutrons for Industry

7 Reactor Based Health Products Product Mo-99 Gentech /Tc-99m Sodium Iodide I-131 Quadramet Sm-153 Chromium Cr-51 Lutetium-177 Bulk export Indication Organ imaging of the liver, lung, bone, kidney & heart Hyperthyroidism & Thyroid cancer The relief of bone pain in patients with painful osteoblastic skeletal metastases The determination of GFR rate Diagnosis and treatment of Neuroendocrine. Tumors

8 Neutrons For Health 10,000 hospitals in the world use radioisotopes 40 million patients per year 10% 90% Diagnostics (cardiology, oncology, neurology) Therapy / palliative care

9 OPAL Irradiated LEU Targets ANM ILLW Transfer ANM Mo-99 Facility ANM Mo-99 Facility Synroc Waste Plant

10 Supply Chain OPAL Reactor Processing Plant (ANM) Global distribution Local distribution of finished goods Hospital and Pharmacy Clinical Imaging Health Outcomes LEU U 235 targets irradiated in OPAL Mo-99 separated and purified Bulk Mo-99 Shipped to meet global demand Tc-99m Generators dispensed and transported Tc-99m eluted and combined with cold kits Product administered to patients for imaging Imaging helps diagnosis & leads to appropriate treatments 7-12 days 1 day 1 day 1 day 5 minutes - - Challenging supply chain

11 Neutrons for Science

19 FAILURE MODE EVIDENT HIDDEN Reliability Engineering RCM Approach Safety or Environmental Operational Loss Condition Monitoring Task feasible, effective and worth doing? Fixed Scheduled Time Restoration Task feasible, effective and worth doing? Fixed Scheduled Time Discard Task feasible, effective and worth doing? Failure Finding Task feasible, effective and worth doing? Repair Only When is a task feasible, effective and worth doing? CONDITION MONITORING FIXED TIME RESTORATION FIXED TIME DISCARD FAILURE FINDING Multiple failure affects safety or environment? REDESIGN NO SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE (Redesign may be desirable)
