Jan 28, 2026
Knowledge-sharing at the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute (PNRI) focused on operational frameworks for commercial irradiation.
A highly insightful knowledge-sharing session on nuclear technology and commercial irradiation was held at the Philippine Nuclear Research Institute under the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), Philippines.
The discussion focused on the practical applications, operational frameworks, and future potential of irradiation technology, particularly in areas such as food safety, agricultural preservation, medical sterilization, and industrial applications.
Special appreciation is extended to:
- Carlo A. Arcilla, Director, Philippine Nuclear Research Institute
- Haydee M. Solomon, Head, Irradiation Service Section
- Giuseppe Filam O. Dean, Senior Science Research Specialist
- Arnaldo R. Valenzuela, Senior Science Research Specialist
We sincerely thank everyone listed above for their valuable time, technical insights, and openness during the engagement.
The session provided meaningful perspectives on:
- Best practices in operating commercial irradiation facilities
- Responsible deployment of irradiation technology
- Regulatory and safety considerations
- Applications in agriculture, healthcare, and industry
