Its head office and main facilities are in southern outskirts of Sydney at Lucas Heights, in the Sutherland Shire. PurposeThe Australian Nuclear Science & Technology Organisation (ANSTO) is Australia's national nuclear organisation and the centre of Australian nuclear expertise. The Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation Act 1987 (Cth) prescribes its general purpose. The purpose is translated into action through corporate drivers of vision, mission and strategic goals. Mission statement
StructureANSTO is governed by a Board of Directors chaired by former CEO of BAE Systems Saudi Arabia, James "Jim" McDowell.[2] Erica Smyth from uranium exploration company Toro Energy is the Deputy Chair. The CEO, Dr Adrian "Adi" Paterson, manages the organisation.[3] ANSTO operates five research facilities:
Major research instruments include:
ANSTO also manufactures radiopharmaceuticals and performs commercial work such as silicon doping by nuclear transmutation. Nuclear reactorsANSTO currently has two nuclear reactors onsite: HIFAR and the new OPAL from the Argentine company INVAP. HIFAR was permanently shut down on 30 January 2007. OPAL became operational in November 2006 and was officially opened 20 April 2007. In 2017, ANTSO announced the creation of a NiMo-SiC alloy for use in molten salt reactors.[8] See also
