    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_waste

    The Onkalo is a planned deep geological repository for the final disposal of spent nuclear fuel [60] [61] near the Olkiluoto Nuclear Power Plant in Eurajoki, on the west coast of Finland. Picture of a pilot cave at final depth in Onkalo. Several methods of disposal of radioactive waste have been investigated: [62] Deep geological repository ...

  4. Radioactive contamination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioactive_contamination

    Such contamination presents a hazard because the radioactive decay of the contaminants produces ionizing radiation (namely alpha, beta, gamma rays and free neutrons). The degree of hazard is determined by the concentration of the contaminants, the energy of the radiation being emitted, the type of radiation, and the proximity of the ...

  5. History of radiation protection - Wikipedia

    Unprotected experiments in the U.S. in 1896 with an early X-ray tube (Crookes tube), when the dangers of radiation were largely unknown.[1]The history of radiation protection begins at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries with the realization that ionizing radiation from natural and artificial sources can have harmful effects on living organisms.

  6. Digital radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_radiography

    Digital radiography is a form of radiography that uses x-ray–sensitive plates to directly capture data during the patient examination, immediately transferring it to a computer system without the use of an intermediate cassette. [1]

  7. Bioremediation of radioactive waste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioremediation_of...

    Bioremediation of radioactive waste or bioremediation of radionuclides is an application of bioremediation based on the use of biological agents bacteria, plants and fungi (natural or genetically modified) to catalyze chemical reactions that allow the decontamination of sites affected by radionuclides.
