Due to the reason, that in Germany every Waste, that is foreseen to be stored in a final disposal facility orin a long time interim storage facility, it is necessary to treat a lot of waste using different dryingtechnologies. In Germany two different drying facilities are in operation. The GNS Company prefers avacuum – drying – technology and has built and designed PETRA – Drying - Facilities. In a lot of smallerlocations, it is not possible to install such a facility because inside the working areas of that location, theavailable space to install the PETRA – Drying – Facility is too small. For that reason, GNS decided todesign a new, small Drying – Facility using industrial standard components, applying the vacuum – drying– technology.The new, small Drying – Facility for wet radioactive waste and liquids is presented in this paper. Theresults of some tests with a prototype facility are shown in chapter 4. The main components of that newfacility are described in chapter 3.
