Description

Urban radioactive waste storehouse is a radioactive workplace, in which the storage of waste radioactive sources and radioactive waste has the characteristics of large quantity, many types of nuclides, old packaging and so on, easy to produce radioactive pollution. In this paper, we analyzed the key links that may lead to radioactive pollution in the urban radioactive waste repository, found out the causes, put forward corresponding countermeasures, and provided guidance for the pollution prevention and control of the urban radioactive waste repository. The risk of radioactive pollution in China's urban radioactive waste inventory should be prevented and controlled accordingly. (authors)
