商品描述
This book sheds light on the global environmental issue and proposes solutions to contamination through multi-disciplinary approaches. Radioactivity occurs naturally. Ionizing radiation has always been a threat to humans and all other living things on earth. While the average global readings could be a suitable benchmark for what must be deemed "normal," the natural level of radiation exposure varies by around an order of magnitude for different locations of the earth. Regardless of whether this degree of radiation exposure qualifies as innocuous, it cannot be avoided because some diseases may be caused by exposure to naturally occurring radiation. As a result, these natural exposures serve as the foundation for and comparison point for radiation protection principles such as dose limits or limitations. The majority of the ionizing radiation that the world's population is exposed to comes from natural sources The public receives maximum doses from nuclear sites that are now in normal operation those are typically two orders of magnitude below the background radiation. In industrialized nations, medical uses of radioactivity and ionizing radiation result in mean doses that are comparable to those from natural radiation, but individual doses vary greatly.
This edited book brings together a diverse group of researchers to address the challenges posed by global mass poisoning caused by radionuclides. This book contains three sections. First section describes the different sources of radioactive pollutant in the environment. Second section explains the health risk linked to radioactive pollutant. Third section addresses sustainable remediation strategies of radioactive waste and the potential applications of recent biological technology in providing solutions. This book is a valuable resource to students, academics, researchers, and environmental professionals doing field work on management of radioactive waste throughout the world.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書闡明了全球環境問題,並通過多學科的方法提出了對污染的解決方案。放射性物質是自然存在的。電離輻射一直對人類及地球上所有其他生物構成威脅。雖然全球平均讀數可以作為所謂「正常」的基準,但不同地區的自然輻射暴露水平相差約一個數量級。無論這種輻射暴露程度是否被認為是無害的,它都是無法避免的,因為某些疾病可能是由於接觸自然存在的輻射而引起的。因此,這些自然暴露成為輻射防護原則(如劑量限制或限制)的基礎和比較點。世界人口所接觸到的大多數電離輻射來自自然來源。公眾從目前正常運行的核設施中接收的最大劑量通常比背景輻射低兩個數量級。在工業化國家,放射性物質和電離輻射的醫療用途導致的平均劑量與自然輻射相當,但個體劑量差異很大。
這本編輯書籍匯集了一群多樣化的研究者,以應對由放射性核素引起的全球大規模中毒所帶來的挑戰。本書包含三個部分。第一部分描述了環境中放射性污染物的不同來源。第二部分解釋了與放射性污染物相關的健康風險。第三部分探討了放射性廢物的可持續修復策略以及最近生物技術在提供解決方案方面的潛在應用。本書是學生、學者、研究人員和環境專業人士在全球範圍內進行放射性廢物管理實地工作的寶貴資源。
