The objective of this work is to demonstrate a practical, atmospheric pressure plasma tool for the surface decontamination of heavy metal waste. Decontamination of radioactive materials that have accumulated on the surfaces of equipment and structures is a challenging and costly undertaking for the US Department of Energy. Our technology shows great promise for mitigating the cost of this clean up effort
