Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority
- Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority
The Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority EAEA has been established in 1955. It leads the national research and development in the basic and applied peaceful nuclear research.
Egypt was the second in the African Continent, after South Africa, to build nuclear reactor. The first research rearctor (ET-RR-1), commissioned in 1961, is a Van de Graf type 4 MW reactor engineered and built by Russia. Another research rearctor ET-RR-2 is 22 MW open pool MultiPurpose Reactor (MPR) located at Inshas, 60 km from Cairo, engineered and built by INVAP from Argentina. [ For more inofrmation and data sheet about the reactor, see its data sheet provided by the manufacturer [http://www.invap.net/nuclear/etrr-2/data-e.html] ]
The EAEA has scientists educated in the topmost universities and research institutes. It is organized into four research centers:
* The Nuclear Research Centre (NRC)
* The Hot Laboratories and Waste Management Centre (HLWMC)
* The National Centre for Radiation Research and Technology (NCRRT)
* The National Centre for Nuclear Safety and Radiation Control (NCNSRC)
These centres are further subdivided into major research divisions.
The EAEA is a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency and other regional and international organizations.
