Penilaian Radiologi Effluent Pusat Sains Dan Teknologi Akselerator (Psta) Ke Sistem Biota Dengan Erica Tool

Abstract

RADIOLOGICAL ASSESSMENT OF EFFLUENT OF CENTER FOR ACCELERATOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY TO THE BIOTIC SYSTEM USING ERICA TOOL. One of the consequences of the KartiniReactor operation is its waste. The liquid waste is one type of the several wastes from the reactor. The liquid waste in the integrated canal must be well managed because there is a probability of the emerging contaminant product, either as a chemical substance or radioactive substance regardless of the small amount. The radioactive substance released to the environment as the effluent flowing to the small river may be used as the water source for irrigation and fishery, and also as a habitat to various organisms. The prevention towards the radionuclides release is done by taking sample as the step of monitoring environment. The samples taken were water and sediment. Furthermore, the dose absorption received by non-human biota was predicted using ERICA Tool software. The purpose of dose predictionusing ERICA Tool was to determine the dose received by non-human biota is still under permissible limit value based on BAPETEN Chairman Regulation Number 7 year 2013. The water samples contained natural radionuclides 212
