Radioactive Releases from Nuclear Power Plants During Normal Operation

摘要: This chapter lists the different main radioactive isotopes produced in fuel of nuclear plants which are released very small amounts into environment. It then explains pathways leading to exposure human body. Several containment barriers a power plant lead extremely low leak rates substances. is followed by definition radiation dose, weighting factors, tissue equivalent dose and natural background dose. Radiation from man-made sources strictly controlled governmental agencies. Permissible limits were set governments for releases installations population employees who might receive enhanced during their occupation. also holds rescue operation teams after severe accident. Finally effluents LWRs effective doses public airborne liquid presented. compared with release nuclides coal fired plants.
