Glovebox fabrication for NNSA work underway at Savannah River Site
The fabrication of gloveboxes is underway for the plutonium pit production mission at the Department of Energy's Savannah River Site near Aiken, S.C.
“Gloveboxes will be a key component of pit production operations within the Savannah River Plutonium Processing Facility [SRPPF],” said Dennis Carr, president and CEO of Savannah River Nuclear Solutions (SRNS), the management and operating contractor for the site. “The early procurement and fabrication of these gloveboxes is critical to delivering completion of this project for the National Nuclear Security Administration by the early 2030s.”
