Radioactive contamination in Iraq and its impact on birth defects for the period (2004-2013)

open access: yesمجلة كلية التربية للبنات, 2019
In the present time, radioactive contamination is considered one of the most dangerous types of environmental pollution. It usually takes place because of a leakage of radioactive materials to one of the environment natural components, such as, water ...

The Use of Radioactive Aerosols in the Ventilation Study of Persons Exposed to Air Pollution from the Oil Well Fires in Kuwait

open access: yesMedical Principles and Practice, 2008
The permeability of alveolar-capillary membrane of persons exposed to smoke from oil well fires in Kuwait is studied using a nuclear medicine imaging technique. This involves inhalation of radioactive aerosols generated from technetium-99m diethylenetriamine pentacetate (99mTc DTPA). A total of 100 subjects were divided into four groups.

Computational fluid dynamics numerical simulation of the effect of cooling towers on the diffusion of airborne radionuclides

open access: yesFushe yanjiu yu fushe gongyi xuebao
During the normal operation of cooling towers in nuclear power plants, water vapor with a certain temperature is discharged through the outlet of the cooling tower, which mixes with the surrounding air. A portion of this vapor condenses and forms visible

Paths of Air Pollutants Containing Radioactive Nuclides in the Suburban Area of Thessaloniki, Northern Greece

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2010
The atmospheric behavior of 7 Be-aerosols in association with atmospheric pollutants was studied by using 1-ACFM Andersen type cascade impactors. The activity of 7 Be, a radionuclide of cosmogenic origin, determined by gamma-ray spectrometry (Eγ = 0.477 MeV), was largely associated with submicron aerosol particles in the accumulation mode (0.4– 2.0 μm).
