To enable the production of nuclear medicine, ANSTO operates manufacturing, processing and distribution facilities in Sydney.

Thirty years of ANSTO's unique capability in monitoring fine particle pollution provides insight on bushfire smoke.

Nuclear science is applied by ANSTO's scientists in many areas that are vital to Australia's future, including agriculture, industry and manufacturing, minerals construction, health and environment. Our work in the development and applications and new knowledge and skills arises from world-class experience in nuclear science and technologies.

ANSTO will make an application to the independent nuclear regulator, ARPANSA, to vary its license for its Interim Waste Store. The original operating license was approved in 2015, enabling the facility to hold what is called a TN-81 cask of intermediate-level radioactive waste that was safely repatriated from France in 2015.

Funding awarded for research on an additive manufacturing technique for use on rail infrastructure.

Advances in radon measurement technology by ANSTO researchers over the past decade have enabled the improved characterisation of the composition of pristine air masses that reach Antarctica.

Ongoing media statements relating to nuclear medicine production.

The ARC Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Green Electrochemical Transformation of Carbon Dioxide, GETCO2, will support innovative approaches to carbon capture.

The Australian Critical Minerals Research and Development Hub (the Hub) unites the expertise of top Federal science agencies: ANSTO, Geoscience Australia, and CSIRO with the aim of addressing technical challenges and drive collaborative research across the critical minerals value chain.

ANSTO’s CORIS360®, an advanced radiation imaging solution, has been awarded two Gold Good Design Awards from Good Design Australia, winning in the categories of Product Design/ Commercial and Industrial as well as Engineering Design.

The Infrared microspectroscopy microscopes can record spectra from a range of different samples; from thin microtomed sections to polished blocks and embedded particles. This section highlights the types of samples that can be analysed using the IRM beamline

ANSTO is a highly regulated organisation. Our governance system and processes provide critical guidance to effectively manage ANSTO’s activities. This section outlines the processes and systems that are in place to provide assurance to Government, our stakeholders and the community that we are working within our regulated and mandated requirements.

Innovative medical device Rhenium-SCT® therapy for non-melanoma skin cancer is now available in Australia

A team of Melbourne researchers and international partners from Italian Instituto Nazionale de Fisica Nucleare (INFN) and CERN, who are developing radiation-hardened semiconductor chips, used the unique state-of-art high energy ion microprobe on the SIRIUS ion accelerator at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science to test a prototype radiation-resistant computer chip

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) is a versatile tool for chemistry, biology, and materials science. By probing how x rays are absorbed from core electrons of atoms in a sample, the technique can reveal the local structure around selected atoms.

For over 45 years, ANSTO has provided consultancy and process development services to the mining and minerals processing industries in Australia and globally.
