Abstract: This article introduces the practices of neutron radiation monitoring and neutron dose monitoring carried out by Taishan Nuclear Power Plant in recent years, and conducts compliance analysis of neutron dose monitoring based on the practical situation. This article also discusses the requirements of domestic and foreign regulations and standards for neutron dose monitoring in nuclear power plants. Analysis suggests that the dose monitoring practices carried out by Taishan Nuclear Power Plant for neutron radiation in recent years comply with relevant domestic regulations and standards. However, it is found that the current regulations and standards for neutron radiation monitoring in nuclear power plants in China are not yet complete. The IAEA general safety guidance and some foreign countries have relative cleare regulations on neutron dose monitoring in nuclear power plants. This article suggests that relevant organizations in China should consider developing relevant guidance standards for neutron dose monitoring in nuclear power plants, and each nuclear power plant should conduct neutron dose monitoring and evaluation based on its own situation.

Key words: nuclear power plant, neutron, neutron dose, dose monitoring
