A REFERENCE SYSTEM FOR WASTE CONTAINERS

A REFERENCE SYSTEM FOR WASTE CONTAINERS

A reference system is provided for muon scattering tomography of hazardous contents of a waste container having a container body (408). The reference system comprises a support member (400). The support member is configured to support one or more fiducial marks (402, 404). The support member may be...

Zusammenfassung:A reference system is provided for muon scattering tomography of hazardous contents of a waste container having a container body (408). The reference system comprises a support member (400). The support member is configured to support one or more fiducial marks (402, 404). The support member may be part of the container body (including the lid), or fitted inside the container, or in a frame configured to fit to the waste container. The fiducial marks have a higher atomic number than the container body. The fiducial marks are fixed to the support member to fix the one or more fiducial marks' location in use in relation to the hazardous contents of the container. The fiducial marks are rotationally asymmetric in relation to a corresponding rotationally symmetric axis of the container body.
