Americium Spill

Solution entered: 2/16/2008    Solution updated: **********

I recommend to use a containment tent manufactured by Inflatable Abatements. The framework is made from electrical conduit and the containment is then placed inside the framework. Air is used to inflate the tent. As it rises, tieoffs are secured around the framework. The zipper door is then cut and the containment can now be entered. Total time to inflate the tent would be less than 10 minutes. Once it is up, cut a section out of the floor and wall the size of the lead cave. Two or three workers can then carry the containment into the room and tape it around the cave. Total cost is a few hundred dollars.
