Radioactive contamination, also called radiological pollution, is the deposition of, or presence of radioactive substances on surfaces or within solids, liquids, or gases (including the human body), where their presence is unintended or undesirable (from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) definition).
Radiation protection. Environment. The IAEA develops safety standards that establish radiation safety principles and describe the practices associated with the use of ionizing radiation. The application of these safety principles ensures that the environment is adequately protected from radiation.
Natural radioactive sources in the soil, water and air contribute to our exposure to ionizing radiation, as well as man-made sources resulting from mining and use of naturally radioactive materials in power generation, nuclear medicine, consumer products, military and industrial applications.
30 Ιαν 2017 · Environmental remediation aims to reduce radiation exposure from existing contamination of land, including groundwater or surface water. Its purpose is to return affected lands and water resources for safe public use.
Quick snapshot of where countries stand on managing six major environmental threats to health: air pollution, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH), climate change, exposure to chemicals, radiation, and occupational health.
29 Ιουν 2016 · This publication is based on the major scientific reports of the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) published in the last 25 years and aims to expand public knowledge on levels of exposure to ionizing radiation and possible associated effects.
