Popis: Numerous calculations and estimates show that the greatest contribution to the radiation dosage of the population in the vicinity of a nuclear power station usually is made by the radioactive noble gases (RNG). This dosage depends significantly on the ratio of the radionuclides in the mixture of the RNG. Table 1 shows data about the composition of radionuclides in the mixture of RNG, from the results of an analysis of samples from monitor tubes in the first line ventilation stacks of the BNPS. The composition of the BNPS reactor effluents is quite similar to the composition of the BWR effluents from foreign nuclear power stations [I]. The greatest difference is observed in the content of a short-lived Z38Xe, which probably is related with the structural features of the cooling systems of the volatile waste before discharge into the atmosphere.
