Radiological Risks Associated with Liquid Effluents from Metallurgical Processes
Liquid waste streams arising from metallurgical operations, such as process waters, cooling fluids, and treatment effluents, may concentrate radionuclides mobilized during ore processing or thermal treatment. These liquid matrices pose specific risks: Internal exposure of workers through handling or accidental contact, Migration of radionuclides into soil and groundwater systems , Secondary contamination of treatment infrastructure. RADIO PROTECT LAB provides specialized r

Rehabilitating Former Nuclear Industrial Brownfields: From Risk to Reuse
Sites that once hosted nuclear-related activities—fuel fabrication, isotope production, or radioactive-material storage—can retain residual contamination in soils, groundwater, and building structures long after operations cease. When such a property is classified as a sensitive site , redevelopment demands a rigorous, science-driven approach to protect public health and the environment. Key Challenges Legacy Radionuclides : Cesium-137, strontium-90, uranium, or transuranic
