The tank was introduced in the Tritio building last March; it was an important installation for the detritiation process of the ITER facilities.

The ITER complex, one of the most important platforms of civil engineering in Europe, had received on March 2015 the first of six big tanks of steel awarded to Ensa by F4E.  Both the design and the manufacture, performed by Ensa, meet the demanding safety qualifications that are applied for the ITER components.
