ENVIRONMENTAL RADIATION EXPOSURE FROM THE EUROCHEMIC REPROCESSING PLANT. Technical Report No. 30 (Revised)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4247971

The gaseous radioactive release of the Eurochemic Processing plant contains Xe/sup 133/, Kr/sup 85/, I/sup 131/ , and small particles bearing beta and alpha emitters. The maximum permissible contamination of air, milk, and plants in the environment of the plant are proposed. After making some assumptions of the meteorological conditions during release, the environmental exposure in the worst possible direction is estimated. The I/sup 131/ concentration in milk seems to be the critical point. Some improvements in order to decrease the contamination level are proposed. (auth)
