...It was the first government in the region to comply with the "container security" program launched by the Bush administration, testing every container for nuclear contamination. It now is working to develop technology that would permit the swift and thorough scanning of all containers.
Some of the best Western securities companies in the world are writing RFPs for Dubai. One small correction: Dubai is not developing the 100% container inspection technology; it will be purchased from USA companies. The new technology uses high-power x-ray, gamma rays and neutron scanning to detect illicit contents inside containers. The technology overcomes the current technology which is too slow to handle more than a handful of containers. Of course, Dubai has the bucks and determination to be first in everything.
This technology is now commercial; advertised on the Internet.
