GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Tech/Engineering - Energy / Power Generation / Nuclear energy
Swedish term or phrase: drift vs omsättningsmaterial
The text is describing various scenarios where drift or omsättningsmaterial is sorted into pick lists, for a Swedish nuclear power company. Unfortunately the actual materials are never described - just referred to! I've dealt with drift in terms of a plant's 'operation' before, and omsättning in terms of financial turnover, but not in this context.. Any help appreciated!
