Abstract:The uranium concentration and radioactivity of radon gas were measured in Al-Kasik refinery and Ain Zala field using the CR-39 detector. Soil and water samples associated with the production stages of oil, sludge and crude oil were collected. The levels of uranium concentration in soil ranged from 0.703 to 1.480ppm, in water samples from 0.681 to 0.716 ppm, in sludge samples from 0.849 to 1.014 ppm, and in crude oil from 0.785 to 0.933 ppm. As for the radioactivity of radon gas, when comparing the radon rate i… Show more
