A radiation dose assessment exercise was carried out for the Ipomea batata, Allium sativum, Dacaus carota, and Solanum tuberosum due to naturally available radionuclide 40K, 238U and 232Th in the Domiasiat area of Meghalaya. The concentration of radionuclides in biota as well as corresponding soil was measured
by precipitation method using NaI detector for continuous 12 months. Transfer factor was calculated and was, for 40K(3.96E−05, 3.40E−05, 3.40E−05, 2.70E−05), for 232Th(3.94E−05, 3.20E−05, 3.20E−054.93E−05), for 238U(3.60E−05, 3.89E−05, 3.85E−054.57E−05), respectively in each biota due to each radionuclide. The point source dose distribution
(source ↔ target) hypotheses was applied for the consideration of absorbed fraction. The generated data were modeled using
the FASSET method and obtained dose was 8.42E−03, 8.36E−03, 7.78E−03, 7.74E−03 μGy h−1, respectively and finally compared with the IAEA and UNSCEAR dataset for screening level dose for terrestrial biota. 相似文献

In order to decrease the alkali and water consumptions in the sugarcane bagasse alkaline/oxidative pretreatment for ethanol
production, an alkaline recycle process was carried out. Two recycles of NaOH/H2O2 pretreatment did not decrease the pretreatment and enzymatic hydrolysis efficiencies and the consumptions of NaOH and water
would be saved by 26% and 40%, respectively. A simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) culture with pretreated
bagasse as substrate was developed giving 25 g ethanol l−1 with a yield of 0.2 g g−1 bagasse and productivity of 0.52 g l−1 h−1. 相似文献

This study is part of an effort to assess the level of background radiation for Erzincan Province of eastern Turkey. Radionuclide
activity concentrations in soil samples were measured through gamma-ray spectrometry and the average activities were determined
as 8.93, 11.39, 281.94, and 9.52 Bq/kg for the radionuclides 238U, 232Th, 40K, and 137Cs, respectively. The average annual effective dose from these natural radioactivity sources (238U series, 232Th series and 40K,) was calculated to be 27.9 μSv. Radioactivity levels in drinking and potable water samples were studied using a multi-channel
low level proportional counter. The average gross alpha activity concentration was found to be 0.0477 Bq/L (min. 0.007 Bq/L;
max. 0.421 Bq/L) and the average gross beta activity was measured as 0.104 Bq/L (min. 0.008 Bq/L; max. 1.806 Bq/L). These
values lead to an average annual effective dose of 9.75 μSv from the alpha emitters and 56.34 μSv from the beta emitting radionuclides
in water. The radioactivity levels in the water samples investigated were found to comply with the reference levels recommended
by WHO and the regulations set forth by the Turkish Health Ministry. 相似文献

This study with sampling expeditions of marine sediment, seawater and biota were performed at 30 stations within Malaysian
Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ). A total of >400 samples were collected to determine the activity concentration of anthropogenic
radionuclides (239+240Pu, 137Cs) and their activity ratio (239+240Pu/137Cs) in sediments, seawater and biota. The purpose of this study was to determine the concentration levels for these radionuclides
and to evaluate any occurrence of radioactive contamination. Sediment cores were obtained using multicorer device, while water
samples via co-precipitation techniques and biota was purchased from local fishermen. The activity concentrations of 239+240Pu in sediment, seawater and biota were ranged 0.21–0.45 Bq/kg dry wt., 2.33–7.95 mBq/m3 and <0.008 Bq/kg fresh wt., respectively. Meanwhile, the values of 137Cs were ranged <1.00–2.71 Bq/kg dry wt. in sediment, 3.40–5.89 Bq/m3 in seawater and <0.05–0.41 Bq/kg fresh wt. in biota, respectively. Activity ratios of 239+240Pu to 137Cs obtained seem to confirm that these artificial radioactivities were mainly due to global nuclear fallout. 相似文献

Magnesium phosphate clapms are offered for conditioning spent nuclear fuel (SNF). It is experimentally shown that the starting
material has a high fluidity which persists for not less one hour. It will allow reliable pouring tight SNF. The solid material
with a density of 1.5–1.8 g cm−3 can function as a protective barrier: It is insoluble in water, and strontium and cesium radionuclides are strongly fixed

The zirconium isotope 93Zr is a long-lived pure β-particle-emitting radionuclide produced from 235U fission and from neutron activation of the stable isotope 92Zr and thus occurring as one of the radionuclides found in nuclear reactors. Due to its long half life, 93Zr is one of the radionuclides of interest for the performance of assessment studies of waste storage or disposal. Measurement
of 93Zr is difficult owing to its trace level concentration and its low activity in nuclear wastes and further because its certified
standards are not frequently available. A radiochemical procedure based on liquid–liquid extraction with 1-(2-thenoyl)-3,3,3-trifluoroacetone
in xylene, ion exchange with Dowex resin and selective extraction using TRU resin has to be carried out in order to separate
zirconium from the matrix and to analyze it by liquid scintillation spectrometry technique (LSC). To set up the radiochemical
separation procedure for 93Zr, a tracer solution of 95Zr was used in order to follow the behavior of zirconium during the process by γ-ray spectrometry through measurement of the
95Zr. Then, the protocol was applied to low level waste (LLW) and intermediate level waste (ILW) from nuclear power plants.
The efficiency detection for 63Ni was used to determination of 93Zr activity in the matrices analyzed. The limit of detection of the 0.05 Bq l−1 was obtained for 63Ni standard solutions by using a sample:cocktail ratio of 3:17 mL for OptiPhase HiSafe 3 cocktail. 相似文献

Shallow land burial is routinely used for the disposal of low-level radioactive waste. Natural processes causing leaching
of radionuclides can lead to contamination of surrounding ground water and soil by the radionuclides. The comparative leachability
of radionuclides U(nat), 226Ra, 228Ra and Th(nat) from the soil of a radioactive waste disposal site, by ground water was evaluated. The probability of leaching was obtained
in the following order Ra (≈77%) > U (≈40%) > Th (≈20%). Observed ratios (OR) were calculated to correlate leachability of
radionuclides to that of major cations Ca2+ and Mg2+. The leaching of the radionuclides was seen to be dependent on Ca2+ and SO42− leached from the soil. This study provides sitespecific leachability of radionuclides, that can be used as indicator of the
tendency for migration or retention in soil. It can play an important role during an unforeseen accident like breach of containment
at the waste disposal site leading to contamination of soil and ground water and causing hazard to public via drinking water
route. 相似文献

The origins of different artificial radionuclides found in soils from Northern and Southern Bulgaria was determined by measurements
of their actual concentrations and respective ratios. On the basis of the measured mobility and concentrations of the investigated
radionuclides in soils, it was estimated that after the Chernobyl accident the mean depositions of fresh 137Cs were 3.0 ± 2.5 kBq/m2 for Northern Bulgaria and 15 ± 7 kBq/m2 for Southern Bulgaria. As a result of global fallout following atmospheric nuclear weapon tests in the 1950s, mean depositions
(corrected to 1965) were calculated for Northern and Southern Bulgaria as follows: for 90Sr—1.0 ± 0.5 and 2.3 ± 1.3 kBq/m2, 238Pu—1.3 ± 0.8 and 2.8 ± 1.6 Bq/m2, 239+240Pu—15 ± 14 and 47 ± 38 Bq/m2, and 241Pu—520 ± 200 and 760 ± 260 Bq/m2. 相似文献

In this research, a new composite, poly (hydroxyethylmethacrylate-hydroxyapatite) [P(HEMA-Hap)], was synthesized and its adsorptive
features for natural radionuclides (TI+, Ra2+, Bi3+and Ac3+ in a leaching solution) were investigated at differing initial pH, concentration and temperature ranges. The natural radionuclides
were counted by gamma spectrometer using a type NAI (Tl) detector. The adsorption data obtained were well represented by Langmuir
and Freundlich type isotherms. The magnitude of determined monolayer adsorption capacities (X
L) for the adsorbed radionuclides were TI+ = Ac3+ > Ra2+ = Bi3+. These results demonstrated that P(HEMA-Hap) had high affinity to the natural radionuclide. The thermodynamic parameters
indicated that the adsorption mechanisms were spontaneous (ΔG < 0) in terms of adsorption free enthalpy, and changes in the enthalpy and entropy values showed that the overall adsorption
process was endothermic (ΔH > 0), thus increasing entropy (ΔS > 0). 相似文献

The concentrations of 226Ra, 210Po and 210Pb have been measured, by high efficiency 5″ × 5″ NaI(Tl) gamma ray spectrometer and chemical deposition method, in surface
water samples from major rivers Kali, Sharavathi and Netravathi of coastal Karnataka. Measurements of 226Ra, 210Po and 210Pb in surface water from these rivers are important because the river water is main source of potable water in this region
due to inadequate supply of treated water. The mean activity of 226Ra, 210Po and 210Pb in the surface water of the river Kali was found to be 5.13 mBq L−1, 1.28 and 1.37 Bq L−1, for Sharavathi River the mean activity was found to be 3.37 mBq L−1, 1.30 and 1.44 Bq L−1. In Netravathi River the mean activity of 226Ra, 210Po and 210Pb was found to be 3.30 mBq L−1, 1.00 and 1.20 Bq L−1. From the measured concentration of 226Ra, 210Po and 210Pb, the Effective dose to the population of the region was computed. The results of these systematic studies are presented
and discussed in the paper. 相似文献

In this work, the potential of microwave-assisted alkali pretreatment in order to improve the rupture of the recalcitrant
structures of the cashew able bagasse (CAB), lignocellulosic by-product in Brazil with no commercial value, is obtained from
cashew apple process to juice production, was studied. First, biomass composition of CAB was determined, and the percentage
of glucan and lignin was 20.54 ± 0.70% and 33.80 ± 1.30%, respectively. CAB content in terms of cellulose, hemicelluloses,
and lignin, 19.21 ± 0.35%, 12.05 ± 0.37%, and 38.11 ± 0.08%, respectively, was also determined. Results showed that, after
enzymatic hydrolysis, alkali concentration exerted influence on glucose formation, after pretreatment with 0.2 and 1.0 mo L−1 of NaOH (372 ± 12 and 355 ± 37 mg gglucan−1) when 2% (w/v) of cashew apple bagasse pretreated by microwave-assisted alkali pretreatment (CAB-M) was used. On the other hand, pretreatment
time (15–30 min) and microwave power (600–900 W) exerted no significant effect on hydrolysis. On enzymatic hydrolysis step,
improvement on solid percentage (16% w/v) and enzyme load (30 FPU gCAB-M−1) increased glucose concentration to 15 g L−1. The fermentation of the hydrolyzate by Saccharomyces cerevesiae resulted in ethanol concentration and productivity of 5.6 g L−1 and 1.41 g L−1 h−1, respectively. 相似文献

The activities of 224Ra in the East China Sea (ECS) were measured by the Mn-fiber adsorption—emanation method. The horizontal and vertical distributions
of 224Ra in the ECS in summer and winter were studied. The ranges of 224Ra activities were < lowest limit of detection (LLD)–5.88 Bq/m3 in summer with an average of 0.85 Bq/m3, and < LLD-7.50 Bq/m3 in winter with an average of 0.72 Bq/m3. And the distributions of 224Ra in the surface water were similar in these two seasons, decreasing rapidly with the increasing distance from the coast.
The high 224Ra area was located within 30–100 km offshore and the lowest activities appeared in the Kuroshio Current. The vertical distributions
of 224Ra showed two different characteristics. The horizontal and vertical eddy diffusion coefficients calculated by the one-dimensional
state model of 224Ra were (7.1–88.9) × 106cm2/s and 2.18–163 cm2/s, respectively. The upwelling rates off Zhejiang Province were calculated from 224Ra vertical distribution, which varied from 8.4 × 10−3cm/s to 13.3 × 10−3cm/s in summer and 16.3 × 10−3cm/s to 16.8 × 10−3cm/s in winter. 相似文献

The method for the determination of 90Sr which employs sodium hydroxide for the separation of strontium from calcium was further improved introducing the use of
elevated temperatures. The results from 11-year study of background activity concentrations of 90Sr in different environmental objects in 100 km zone around Kozloduy Nuclear Power Plant (Bulgaria) are presented as an application
of the analytical method. The measured mean values are as follows: air precipitation − 0.0015±0.0009 Bq(m2.d), tap water − 0.0017±0.0012 Bq/L, soil − 1.90±1.26 Bq/kg, grass − 1.54±0.80 Bq/kg, milk − 0.023±0.012 Bq/L and for the Danube
river: water − 0.0046±0.0026 Bq/L, bottom sediments − 0.64±0.60 Bq/kg, algae − 1.99±1.56 Bq/kg. The calculated transfer coefficients
(soil-grass) are in the range of 0.33–0.84. Between 2 and 5 times reduction in actual background activities of 90Sr is observed compared to 1972–1974. 相似文献

The surveys of natural gamma-emitting radionuclides in soils from three basins of West Anatolia intensively used for agricultural
purposes were conducted during 1998–2003. In the present study, part of the survey, the activity concentrations of 238U, 232Th and 40K in the soil samples from 43 sites distributed all over the agricultural land known as Büyük Menderes basin were determined
by scintillation gamma spectrometry. The average activity concentrations and ranges of the relevant radionuclides in the soils
were as follows: 238U was 29 (7–84); 232Th, 22 (10–48) and 40K, 464 (100–864) Bq kg−1. The corresponding absorbed dose rates in air from all those radionuclides were in the range of 17–81 nGy h−1 with a mean value of 46 nGy h−1 and did not exceed the world-wide average values. All dosimetric calculations were performed based on the guidance of UNSCEAR
2000 report [1]. 相似文献

This work presents the results of 137Cs, 40K, 232Th and 238U concentration (Bq kg−1) values in coastal marine sediments collected from 38 sites along the coastline of the island of Margarita, Venezuela. The
purpose was to determine baseline values for these radionuclides in surface marine sediments and to detect if there were any
anomalously high concentration values. Only three of the 38 sediments analyzed had measurable values above the detection limit
of 0.9 Bq kg−1 for 137Cs and the highest only being 1.4 Bq kg−1. While, the concentration (Bq kg−1) ranges for the primordial radionuclides, 40K, 232Th and 238U were as follows: 12.2–211.7, <1.5–9.8 and <4.4–20.7, respectively. These concentration ranges for the primordial radionuclides
can be considered as baseline values for surface marine sediments for areas that are considered not polluted by man or contaminated
by nature. Finally, the concentration range of 137Cs can also be employed as baseline values, which only seem to have been the result of the atmospheric testing of nuclear
weapons in the past. 相似文献

Dispersions of crystalline nanoscaled ITO and solutions of amorphous precursors were used for the preparation of transparent
conductive films on glass both by large area dip-coating (30 × 30 cm2) and pad-printing. The advantages of both types of coating materials regarding single layer thickness and conductivity were
combined by a coating-infiltration procedure. The resulting films showed a specific resistivity down to 1.77 10E−03 Ω cm after
treatment in reducing atmosphere and an increased resistance to subsequent storage in air. 相似文献

Distribution of natural radionuclide gives significant parameter to assess the presence of gamma radioactivity and its radiological effect in our environment. Natural radionuclides are present in the form of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in soil, rocks, water, air, and building materials. Distribution of natural radionuclides depends on the type of minerals present in the soil and rocks. For this purpose gamma spectrometer is used as tool for finding the concentration of these radionuclides. The activity concentration of naturally occurring radionuclides 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in these soil samples were found to vary from of 8 ± 1 Bq/kg to 50 ± 10 Bq/kg with an average 20 Bq/kg, 7 ± 1–88 ± 16 Bq/kg with an Average 26 Bq/kg and 115 ± 18–885 ± 132 Bq/kg with an average 329 Bq/kg, respectively. In this paper, we are presenting the radiological effect due to distribution of natural radionuclide present in soil of Garhwal Himalaya. 相似文献

In this work, the radionuclide activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in surface soils and radon levels in dwellings of Karabük, Turkey were determined in order to evaluate the environmental
radioactivity. Concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K radionuclides were determined using gamma spectrometry with using HPGe detector. The etch track detectors (CR-39) were used
to determine the distribution of radon concentrations. The average activity concentrations for 226Ra, 232Th and 40K were found as 21.0, 23.5 and 363.5 Bq kg−1, respectively. The calculated average annual effective dose equivalent from the outdoor terrestrial gamma radiation from
226Ra, 232Th and 40K is 53.5 μSv y−1. The average radon concentration and annual effective dose equivalent of 222Rn in Karabük dwellings were obtained 131.6 Bqm−3 and 3.32 mSv y−1, respectively. The evaluated data were compared with the data obtained from different countries. 相似文献
