- Low Level Waste Resin from Plant Decontamination (MODIX)
Submarine primary circuit is chemically decontaminated to remove magnetite layer and hence radioactive activation products. Soluble activity is removed from process liquid using ion exchange resin. Primary plant dose rates are significantly reduced as a result of the process.

- Intermediate Level Waste Resin from Plant Decontamination (MODIX)
Submarine primary plant (reactor & associated systems) plant decontamination. Resin is used to remove soluble metal activation products that are generated when the magnetite layer is removed from the primary plant.
