Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleRadiation Hazards Due to Radon Concentrations in Dwellings of Kufa Technical Institute, 'Iraq'Ali Abid Abojassim Al-Hamidawi, Afnan Ali HusainRadon concentrations were measured in Kufa dwellings of the technical institute, Al-Najaf- Iraq using LR-115 type II plastic track detectors. Additionally, annual effective dose and the excess lifetime cancer risk for the aforementioned dwellings were calculated. The results demonstrate that the radon concentration ranged from 37.4±6.4 Bq/m3 to 55.7±12.0 Bq/m3 with an average of 46.2±8.2 Bq/m3. The latter is found … …Physics International, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 15 Apr 2016 · 8,143 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMonstrous Hazards Produced by High Radioactivity Levels Around Assiut Thermal Power PlantHany El-Gamal, Mohamed El-Azab Farid, Abdulla Ibrahim Abdel Mageed et al.The natural radioactivity level of heavy oil, ash and soil samples around Assiut Thermal Power Plant (ATPP) in Egypt was determined using gamma ray spectrometry. The average concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in fly ash were found to be 2307±143, 1281±80 and 1218±129 Bq kg-1, respectively, while the corresponding values in soil samples were 2670±107, 1401±78 and 1495±100 Bq … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 17 Sep 2013 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArif’s Shield; A Novel Method for Stabilizing Hazardous Radioactive Effects of Nuclear Fall-OutMetin CelalettinThis research proposes a technique to stabilize ionic radiation, caused by the unstable nuclei of radioactive isotopes. Ionic radiation can lead to various health hazards, including cancer, radiation sickness and genetic damage. It is essential to find ways to stabilize ionic radiation caused by the use of nuclear weaponry or where nuclear energy is utilized as part of the energy … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2023 · 6,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Ultra Violet Radiation on Polyethylene Packaged Water Exposed at Varying Conditions: Are we Drinking Micro-Plastics?James Matthew Anayo, Victor Eshu Okpashi, Ikechukwu N.E. OnwurahThe public is worried about how their health is impacted by microplastics in sachet water. This awareness has repercussion for water producing factories and public health organization in managing health hazard associated with microplastic ingestion. Many countries in Africa, with concern to Nigeria, the act of packaging water in polyethylene materials by water producing factories has become accustomed. These packaged … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2018 · 9,915 accessesView PDFCite
