Radiation Exposure Dosimetry in Nuclear Facilities
In nuclear facilities, ensuring the safety and health of personnel is paramount. Radiation exposure dosimetry plays a critical role in monitoring and managing occupational radiation exposure levels to comply with international standards such as ISO 80724:2015 and ICRP recommendations.
Our service involves measuring the absorbed dose, equivalent dose, and effective dose of ionizing radiation experienced by individuals working in nuclear environments. This is achieved through the use of personal dosimeters placed on workers who are exposed to ionizing radiation during their daily tasks.
The first step in this process is thorough preparation of the specimens used for dosimetry. This includes selecting and placing the appropriate dosimeter on the worker, ensuring it adheres securely without causing discomfort or interference with job performance. The dosimeter captures the cumulative exposure over a specified period.
During the monitoring phase, we use advanced technology such as thermoluminescent (TLD) badges and electronic personal radiation monitors to measure radiation levels accurately. These devices are capable of detecting various types of ionizing radiation including gamma rays, X-rays, beta particles, and alpha particles.
The collected data is then analyzed using sophisticated software that can provide detailed reports on the exposure history of each individual. These reports include peak dose values, average doses over specific periods, and cumulative exposures throughout an employee’s career in the nuclear facility.
Our service also extends to providing training sessions for employees on best practices for minimizing radiation exposure and interpreting their dosimetry results. This ensures that all personnel are aware of the importance of adhering to safety protocols and understanding the implications of their dose measurements.
We offer comprehensive support in complying with regulatory requirements such as those set out by the International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) and national standards like those from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). By doing so, we help our clients maintain a safe working environment while adhering to stringent health and safety regulations.
