Description

Radiation safety of gamma- and electron irradiation facilities is of basic significance concerning the safety of personnel involved in operation, which of the products treated as well as the environment of the facility. The safety measures with respect to the design and construction of the facilities, requirements concerning the basic parts and the operation of the plants, the reliable control of running irradiation facilities and the role of emergency planning and the role of licences are discussed based on the Safety Guides of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
