Environmental remediation is cleaning up hazardous substances by removing, treating, and containing pollution or contaminants from environmental media like soil, groundwater, and sediment. ...
In addition, the antibacterial effect was greatly outweighed by infrared radiation and facilitated effective disinfection of contaminated tissue areas. ...

Scope: Cost reduction of contaminated material triage process and further handling of contaminated material. Solution: Radiation detection equipment that selects and categorizes contaminated material with higher precision. ...
US Nuclear Corp and UAV partner FlyCam UAV were invited to participate in two demonstrations for their UAV mounted Radiation Detection system, the DroneRAD. On January 30, 2019, the BAYEX 2019 took place in the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California. ...
The News that Thermo have ceased production of the much loved Electra meter has forced trainers to re-assess their simulation requirements in order to fully meet the needs of trainees now utilising new meters for contamination and radiation surveys. STS have long been aware that the Electra had a limited life span and so moved to ensure a replacement simulator ...
Please come along and visit us and see whats new in Radiation Training equipment and all areas of Radiation and Contamination monitoring and survey ...
STS have been working on the next evolution of our ionising radiation contamination simulators! Our customers love the basis of our simulation technology which allows artificial contamination to be applied to a surface, spread, transferred and cleaned up -all whilst being monitored with a simulated meter and probe behaving as you would expect ...

This is not the case for most emerging contaminants: no effective removal technologies have been discovered to date, to simultaneously remove all of the concerned contaminants, even though some techniques have been demonstrated to remove some contaminants to a certain extent. Radiation processing using electron beam (EB) ...
The latest orders come from the European Commission Joint Research Centre's Nuclear Safeguards & Forensics section and adds to their existing suite of contamination and radiation simulation systems from STS. The RadEye SX simulator is based around a DP6 style probe which houses the STS circuitry and detection system and interfaces to a real and unmodified ...
PHE provide specialist training and courses in the fields of radiation and contamination monitoring for workers in the Nuclear Industry, Homeland Security, Construction and Medical sectors. ...
The analyses provided measurements of heavy metal content, fuel and radiator fluid contamination, etc. The problems with this approach were cost and time: it cost $40 per sample using a thirdparty lab, and it took 14 to 21 days to receive the results. ...
Safe Training Systems Belgian distributor Raydiant BV have placed an order for multiple sets of STS Thermo Electras with HP260 simulated probes for simulated radiation contamination monitoring. The order follows a series of very successful demonstrations of the STS simulation system to Nuclear Power Plants and Nuclear Research Establishments throughout Belgium. ...
On the outskirts of town, thousands of black industrial storage bags containing radiation-contaminated soil and debris stretch out across barren fields. ...
Soils contaminated with radionuclide pose a long–term radiation hazard to human health through exposure via the food chain and other pathways. Remediation of contaminated soils has become increasingly important. The feasibility to move radionuclides from superficial soil layers to a deeper level using an acid leaching solution was already ...
The estimated ingestion dose of 210 Pb due to consumption of marine salt in the population of Recife was 1.2 Sv, at least three orders of magnitude above the maximum recommended level.Keywords: contamination, radioactivity, radiation ...
At present, a possible radiation effect is estimated as a function of dose irradiation although it is strongly dependent more on the environmental factors. The consequences of low doses of internal irradiation linked to chronic soil contamination and of external irradiation associated with short or prolonged atmospheric impacts for plant populations in nature ...
In the present paper, several statements from the chapter 'Radioactive Contamination of Food and People' are discussed and their reliability questioned. ...
Field experiments with a Radioactive Dispersion Device (RDD) were performed by the National Radiation Protection Institute (NRPI) of the Czech Republic. We present the results of computer simulations of these experiments using a new microscale model, Charles University Large Eddy Microscale Model (CLMM). The model was first validated using wind tunnel data for the dispersion of ...
Not least of these questions, but certainly the most far-reaching is the question of the safety of nuclear power and radiation contamination of air and water. Way back when nuclear power was first established, in the 1960s public opinion was sharply divided. ...
