During the week of 7-12 September 1991, a mission to the Korean Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI), Seoul, was completed. Included in the weeks` activities were a visit at the new KAERI site at Taedock Science Town outside Taejon city; a visit at the Greenpia Tech. Inc. commercial/industrial cobalt-60 gamma irradiator southeast of Seoul plus consultation with Greenpia management; visits at Agriculture and Fisheries Marketing Corporation Headquarters plus its commercial food storage facilities, Seoul, for consultations on food irradiation as it relates to their activities; meetings with the Ministry of Health`s Food Advisory Group regarding food irradiation regulations. A half-day seminar on industrial applications of food irradiation technology was presented. Greenpia Technology currently operates its irradiator at well below capacity (about 25%).
