  • Toxicological Profile for Plutonium
    PLUTONIUM 1 1. PUBLIC HEALTH STATEMENT This public health statement tells you about plutonium and the effects of exposure to it. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) identifies the most serious hazardous waste sites in the nation. These sites are then placed on the National Priorities List (NPL) and are targeted for long-term federal clean-up activities. Plutonium has been found in at least 16 of the 1,689 current or former NPL sites. Although the total number of NPL sites evaluated for this substance is not known, strict regulations make it unlikely that the number of sites at which plutonium is found would increase in the future as more sites are evaluated. This information is important because these sites may be sources of exposure and exposure to this substance may be harmful. When a substance is released from a large area, such as an industrial plant, or from a container, such as a drum or bottle, it enters the environment. This release does not always lead to exposure. You are normally exposed to a substance only when you come in contact with it. You may be exposed by breathing, eating, or drinking the substance, or by skin contact. However, since plutonium is radioactive, you can also be exposed to its radiation if you are near it. External exposure to radiation may occur from natural or man-made sources. Naturally occurring sources of radiation are cosmic radiation from space or radioactive materials in soil or building materials. Man- made sources of radioactive materials are found in consumer products, industrial equipment, atom bomb fallout, and to a smaller extent from hospital waste and nuclear reactors.

  • Release of Patients Administered Radioactive Materials
    NEW YORK STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH BUREAU OF ENVIRONMENTAL RADIATION PROTECTION DRAFT RADIATION GUIDE 10.17 RELEASE OF PATIENTS ADMINISTERED RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS A. INTRODUCTION Section 16.123(b) of 10 NYCRR Part 16 requires licensees to assess the radiation exposure to individuals from patients administered radioactive materials and take action, as appropriate, to reduce exposures to other individuals. These requirements apply for both diagnostic and therapeutic uses regardless of the amount administered. Section 16.123(b), Medical uses of radioactive material, states: P The licensee shall confine patients undergoing procedures authorized by ...until the total effective dose equivalent for the individuals (other than the patient) likely to receive the greatest dose is 5 mSv (500 mrem) or less. P When the total effective dose equivalent to any individual that could result from the release of a patient is likely to exceed 1 mSv (100 mrem), the licensee shall: • provide the patient, or his/her competent representative, written information on risks of radiation and methods for reducing the exposure of individuals; and • keep records of such patients release for a period of five years. This document is designed to provide guidance on determining the potential dose to an individual likely to receive the highest dose from exposure to the patient, to establish appropriate activities and dose rates for release, to provide guidelines for instructions to patients on how to reduce exposures to other individuals, to describe recordkeeping requirements, and to inform licensees of other potential problems associated with the release of patients containing radioactive materials. B. DISCUSSION The radiation dose to another individual from a patient is highly dependent on a number of factors, including the amount and type of radioactive material administered, the patient's living/working arrangements, ability/willingness to follow instructions, etc.

Such elements are called fissile. electricity. The heat could come through the burning The most important fissile nuclides are the uranium of coal or natural gas, in the case of fossil-fueled isotopes, uranium-235 and uranium-233, and the power plants, or the fission of uranium or plutonium plutonium isotope, plutonium-239. Isotopes are nuclei. The rate of electrical power production in variants of the same chemical element that have these power plants is usually measured in megawatts the same number of protons and electrons, but or millions of watts, and a typical large coal or nuclear differ in the number of neutrons. Of these, only power plant today produces electricity at a rate of uranium-235 is found in nature, and it is found about 1,000 megawatts. A much smaller physical only in very low concentrations.

  • CURIUM Element Symbol: Cm Atomic Number: 96
    CURIUM Element Symbol: Cm Atomic Number: 96 An initiative of IYC 2011 brought to you by the RACI ROBYN SILK www.raci.org.au CURIUM Element symbol: Cm Atomic number: 96 Curium is a radioactive metallic element of the actinide series, and named after Marie Skłodowska-Curie and her husband Pierre, who are noted for the discovery of Radium. Curium was the first element to be named after a historical person. Curium is a synthetic chemical element, first synthesized in 1944 by Glenn T. Seaborg, Ralph A. James, and Albert Ghiorso at the University of California, Berkeley, and then formally identified by the same research tea at the wartime Metallurgical Laboratory (now Argonne National Laboratory) at the University of Chicago. The discovery of Curium was closely related to the Manhattan Project, and thus results were kept confidential until after the end of World War II. Seaborg finally announced the discovery of Curium (and Americium) in November 1945 on ‘The Quiz Kids!’, a children’s radio show, five days before an official presentation at an American Chemical Society meeting. The first radioactive isotope of Curium discovered was Curium-242, which was made by bombarding alpha particles onto a Plutonium-239 target in a 60-inch cyclotron (University of California, Berkeley). Nineteen radioactive isotopes of Curium have now been characterized, ranging in atomic mass from 233 to 252. The most stable radioactive isotopes are Curium- 247 with a half-life of 15.6 million years, Curium-248 (half-life 340,000 years), Curium-250 (half-life of 9000 years), and Curium-245 (half-life of 8500 years).

A pdf version of this document can be downloaded from www.skb.se. Summary This SKB report gives a brief description of ongoing activities on fusion driven systems (FDS) for transmutation of the long-lived radioactive isotopes in the spent nuclear waste from fission reactors. Driven subcritical systems appears to be the only option for efficient minor actinide burning. Driven systems offer a possibility to increase reactor safety margins. A comparatively simple fusion device could be sufficient for a fusion-fission machine, and transmutation may become the first industrial application of fusion. Some alternative schemes to create strong fusion neutron fluxes are presented. 3 Sammanfattning Denna rapport för SKB ger en övergripande beskrivning av pågående aktiviteter kring fusionsdrivna system (FDS) för transmutation av långlivade radioaktiva isotoper i kärnavfallet från fissionskraftverk.
