Assessment of Seasonal Radon Concentration in Dwellings and Soils in Selected Areas in Ga East, Greater Accra Region of Ghana

open access: yesJournal of Environmental and Public Health, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Seasonal radon levels have been studied in dwellings and soils in selected areas in Ga East, Greater Accra Region of Ghana using LR‐115‐type II (SSNTDs). This study was conducted to determine the seasonal correlation between soil and dwelling radon concentrations.

Estimation of natural radionuclide and exhalation rates of environmental radioactive pollutants from the soil of northern India

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2020
The estimation of radioactivity level is vital for population health risk assessment and geological point of view and can be evaluated as rate of exhalation and source concentration (226Ra, 232Th and 40K).

Investigating Fracture Network Deformation Using Noble Gas Release

open access: yesGeofluids, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
We investigate deformation mechanics of fracture networks in unsaturated fractured rocks from subsurface conventional detonation using dynamic noble gas measurements and changes in air permeability. We dynamically measured the noble gas isotopic composition and helium exhalation of downhole gas before and after a large subsurface conventional ...

Tukey Control Chart for Radon Monitoring in Relation to the Seismic Activity

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2021, Issue 1, 2021., 2021
Radon is one of the precursory phenomena that exist in connection to the occurrence of earthquakes and may have potential in forecasting these hazards. The data set in this study contains the observations of radon from August 01, 2014, to January 31, 2015, collected in Sobra city, northern Pakistan.

INFLUENCE OF SAMPLING FLOW RATE ON THORON EXHALATION RATE MEASUREMENTS BY THE CIRCULATION METHOD

open access: yesRadiation Protection Dosimetry, 2022
AbstractResearchers have used various methods to obtain the exhalation rates of radon and thoron from soil and building materials. One of the typical methods for radon exhalation rate is the circulation method using an accumulation container, an external or internal sampling pump and a continuous radon monitor.

EXPERIMENTAL TECHNIQUE TO MEASURE THORON GENERATION RATE OF BUILDING MATERIAL SAMPLES USING RAD7 DETECTOR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Thoron (220Rn) is the second most abundant radon isotope in our living environment. In some dwellings it is present in significant amount which calls for its identification and remediation. Indoor thoron originates mainly from building materials. In this

QUANTIFICATION OF BACK DIFFUSION IN RADON AND THORON EXHALATION RATE MEASUREMENTS

open access: yesRadiation Protection Dosimetry, 2020
Abstract The radon (222Rn) and thoron (220Rn) fluxes from the soil and building materials are the major contributors to their indoor levels. Hence, the measurement of radon and thoron exhalation rates from the source matrix becomes the foremost step in controlling the indoor radon and thoron exposure.
