Foaming in Radioactive Waste Treatment and Immobilization Processes

Radioactive Ion Beam Targets and the Associated Processes

A large number of targets is required to produce different types of radioactive species. These radioactive ion beams have many uses in addition to their use in various kinds of experiments in different branches of physics. In this article different geometries of RIB targets, the diffusion and surface adsorption processes related to the targets etc. have been explained. Importance of composite t...

Microbially mediated redox processes in natural analogues for radioactive waste.

Natural analogues allow scientists to investigate biogeochemical processes relevant to radioactive waste disposal that occur on time scales longer than those that may be studied by time-limited laboratory experiments. The Palmottu U-Th deposit in Finland and the Bangombé natural nuclear reactor in Gabon involve the study of natural uranium, and are both considered natural analogues for subsurfa...

Radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium: two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis

The present nuclear leakage crisis from Japan is a topic to be discussed in present public health. In radiology, the leaked radioactive elements are considered hazard. Here, the author briefly reviews and discusses on two important radio-hazard elements in post nuclear power plant crisis, radioactive iodine and radioactive cesium. Based on previous similar nuclear crisis in Russia, it ...
