Abstract:
To preserve the ecological balance and health of the population of the African continent, it is necessary to maintain the cleanliness of the surrounding rivers, lakes and ocean coasts. Oil production, transportation of oil and petroleum products inevitably lead to pollution of sea waters due to accidents on tankers, equipment breakdowns, and fires. Oceanic coasts are of great importance for the development of the tourism industry, which plays a significant role in the national economies of African countries. However, many coastal areas are contaminated with industrial and household waste, oil

Abstract:
Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is an innovative cancer treatment modality that exploits neutron beams to specifically destroy malignant cells. Despite its assuring clinical benefits, BNCT familiarizes itself with unique environmental health considerations, including radiation safety, waste supervision, and potential ecological ramifications. This review investigates these aspects by appraising radiation safety protocols, waste disposal procedures, and environmental monitoring implementations associated with BNCT facilities. Effective radiation shielding and demanding safety protocols are

Abstract:
Clinical waste (CW) treatment and disposal is a global concern for developing a sustainable society. Clinical waste refers to any liquid or solid waste containing infectious or potentially infectious materials from healthcare, laboratory, or research activities, including disease diagnosis, prevention, and treatment. This type of waste poses risks to healthcare staff, patients, and the surrounding community, increasing the potential for illness and damage. The World Health Organisation classifies medical waste into eight categories: infectious waste, sharps waste, pathological waste, pharmaceu

Abstract:
As people in nowadays are paying more and more attention on environmental problems, we have noticed that human factors are great contributors to many problems on nature. This essay mainly discusses about the effects of human factors on nature in the aspects of atmosphere, rivers, oceans, and soil. In the paper, various of human factors including burning fossil fuels, sewage disposal, etc. are studied. Industrial processes emit significant greenhouse gases, disrupting Earth's balance and contributing to global warming and acid rain. Sewage and improper waste disposal in rivers and oceans turn o

Abstract:
From the days of primitive society, human and animals have used the resource of the earth to support life and to dispose waste. Rapid population growth and uncontrolled industrial development are seriously degrading the urban and semi-urban environment in many of the developing countries placing enormous strain on natural resources and undermining efficient and sustainable development. Industrial operations lead to considerable generation of hazardous waste and in rapidly industrializing countries such as India the contribution to hazardous waste from industries are largest.

Abstract. The Federal Company for radioactive waste disposal (BGE) is responsible for the search for a site with the best possible safety for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste in Germany. The site selection procedure is regulated in a law that was adopted by the German Federal Parliament (Repository Site Selection Act – StandAG, 2017, last updated 2020 (StandAG)) and aims to be a participatory, transparent, learning, and self-questioning process based on scientific expertise.

Abstract:
NCRP report No.160 states that medical exposure increased to nearly half of the total radiation exposure of the U.S. population from all sources in 2006 (NCRP 2009). Part of this increase in exposure is due to the rise in nuclear medicine procedures. With this observed growth in medical radionuclide usage, there is an increase in the radionuclide being released into wastewater after the medical procedures. The question then arises: what is the behavior of medical radionuclides and their impurities in the wastewater process? It is important to note that, often, medical radionuclides are not exa

Abstract:
In recent years, the amount of radioactive materials seizures (captured radioactive materials) has been rising. It was above all due to newly installed detection facilities that were able to check metallic scrap during its collection in scrap yards or on the entrance to iron-mills, checking municipal waste upon entrance to municipal disposal sites, even incineration plants, or through checking vehicles going through the borders of the Czech Republic. Most cases bore a relationship to secondary raw materials or they were connected to the application of machines and installations made from conta

It also gave the responsibility for delivering the programme for a deep geological repository to the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority (NDA).

The United States Department of Energy is building a Waste Treatment Plant (WTP) at the DOE Hanford Site in the state of Washington to process stored radioactive wastes for long-term storage and disposal. The Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) is helping resolve technical concerns with the WTP, which are related to piping erosion/corrosion (wear). SRNL is assisting in the design of a flow loop to obtain long term wear that will use prototypic simulant chemistry, operating conditions, and materials for total wear rate. The challenge is to accurately measure slurry wear to a pipe wall thi
