Kars İlinde Kullanılan Bazı Yapı Malzemelerindeki Doğal Radyoaktivite ve Radyolojik Tehlikelerin Değerlendirilmesi

Year 2017, Volume: 17 Issue: 2, 406 - 414, 31.08.2017

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Kars ilinde kullanılan bazı yapı malzemelerinin radyoaktivite seviyeleri ve bu malzemelerinin kullanılmasından kaynaklanabilecek radyolojik riskler belirlendi. Kars'ın değişik bölgelerinden 10 farklı yapı malzemesini (kireçtaşı, kil, tras, alçıtaşı, demir cevheri ve dört farklı çimento numunesi) temsil eden toplam 60 numune toplanmıştır. Bu numunelerdeki 226Ra, 232Th ve 40K radyoizotoplarının radyoaktivite konsantrasyonları HPGe gama ışını spektrometre sistemi ile ölçüldü. 226Ra, 232Th ve 40K radyoizotoplarının ortalama radyoaktivite konsantrasyonları sırasıyla 22,87 Bq kg-1, 19,49 Bq kg-1, 265,29 Bq kg-1 ve 1,7 Bq kg-1 olarak bulundu. Elde edilen değerler kullanılarak yapı malzemeleri için radyolojik tehlike indisleri (radyum eşdeğer aktivitesi, yapı içi soğurulmuş doz hızı, yapı içi etkin doz hızı, I indisi ve I indisi) hesaplandı. Bu sonuçlar Türkiye’de ve dünyadaki çeşitli ülkelerde benzer malzemeler için bildirilen sonuçlarla kıyaslandı. Bu araştırmanın sonucunda incelenen yapı malzemelerinin radyolojik bir risk oluşturmadığı ve binaların inşasında güvenle kullanılabileceği görülmüştür.
