“…Several studies have confirmed the efficacy of ionizing radiation for treating sewage sludge (Lowe et al 1956;Pikav and Shubin 1984;Hashimoto et al 1986;Lessel 1988;Swinwood and Fraser 1993;Wang and Wang 2007). Among many types of radiation (viz., gamma, beta, alpha, x-ray, and ultraviolet), gamma radiation is the most commonly used in the treatment of sewage sludge (Getoff 1996).…”

“…The previous studies on application of Downloaded by [Gazi University] at 01:28 02 November 2014 radiation technology to wastewater treatment were started as early as in the 1950s (Borrely et al 1998). However, little attention has been paid to this emerging technology until recent years, and it has not yet been commercially accepted and documented (Jung, Thornton, and Chon 2002;Pikav and Shubin 1984). Many countries including Germany, India, Italy, and the USA have successfully adopted the use of irradiation technology to disinfect sewage sludge prior to application on agricultural farmlands (Swinwood et al 1994).…”

Soil application of sewage sludge as an amendment in crop plants has became a popular method of municipal sewage-sludge disposal in many countries. However, the presence of heavy metals in untreated sewage sludge has raised concerns of adverse effects on crop growth, quality of product, and environmental health. Gamma irradiation is one of the treatments for hygienization of sewage sludge before use as fertilizer.To evaluate the potential of gamma-irradiated sewage sludge as fertilizer in vegetable crops, the field investigation was conducted in a root crop, radish (Raphanus sativus L.), during the 2005-06 and 2006-07 growing seasons in a sandy loam soil. Treatments consisted of three source of fertilizers [farmyard manure (FYM), gamma-irradiated sewage sludge (GISS), and nonirradiated sewage sludge (NISS)]; each were compared at six application levels (1, 3, 6, 7, 9, and 11 t ha −1 ). The physicochemical properties of all the three fertilizers used in this study were compared. Growth parameters and yields of radish were not significantly influenced by source of fertilizers or their application levels, except plant stand, which was influenced by type of fertilizers used. There was no significant difference observed between source of fertilizer treatments with respect to any of the measured soil properties, including major nutrients [nitrogen (N) (Co)]. Soil P and Zn were influenced by the various level of fertilizers. However, the interaction effect of source and level of fertilizer was absent for all the measured parameters. The maximum pollutant limits in sewage sludge and soil for agricultural use in different countries were compared. The concentration of metallic micronutrients and heavy metals in soil were less than the prescribed limit of the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), and no significant accumulation was noted after 2 years of application of GISS and NISS even at higher application rates. , phosphorus (P), and potassium (K)], metallic micronutrients [copper (Cu), iron (Fe), manganese (Mn), and zinc (Zn)], and heavy metals [nickel (Ni), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), and cobalt

“…It was a main reason for the proposition (sec [1]) to use ionizing radiation for the decomposition of these organic compounds. The studies carried out in this direction have shown [1,9,11] that even at comparatively low doses (ca. 1 kGy) decolouration, deodorization and disinfection of water up to level corresponding to U.S.S.R. State Standard "Drinking Water" have taken place.…”

The paper is the review of current state of the application of radiation chemistry and radiation technology for environmental conservation. Some aspects of radiation treatment of natural water, radiation purification of aqueous wastes, radiation treatment of sewage sludge and radiation purification of exhaust gases are considered. The special attention is paid to the works of Soviet authors.Die Arbeit beliandeil den gcgcmcdrtigcn Staivl der Anwcndung von radiochemischen vnd strahlcntechnischcn Methoden auj dem Gcbiet des Umwcltschutzcs.
