From the article:
In the 1980s one of the building’s six hot cells was being used to prepare concentrated radioactive cesium and strontium from Hanford plutonium-production waste for Germany to use for testing of a repository for radioactive waste.
Hanford was used for weapons manufacturing, but the research project was on nuclear energy (Germany never had a nuclear weapons program).
