Nuclear science research, nuclear power plant accidents and nuclear terrorist attacks release plutonium aerosols, which are harmful to the public and environmental safety. Grasping the mechanism ofthe formation of plutonium aerosols is not only the theoretical basis for assessing and preventing the effects of radiation, but also an important prerequisitefor plutonium aerosol sampling and characterization. Based on the three modal distribution theories of aerosol particles, two control steps of gas phase nucleation and coagulation & aggregation in plutonium aerosol formation are summarized.The aerosolization of plutonium in different scenarios such as oxidation, combustion and high energy events is reviewed, including the development of chemicalprocess research, with a view to assisting subsequent efforts.

According to the radiation environmentsurveys carried out for Germanium coal mining and utilization in western Yunnanover the years, it's concluded that Linxiang has become a typical TENORM area,and Yunnan Xinyuan Germanium Industry Co., Ltd is a typical NORM corporate. In recent years, through the concerted efforts of multiple local administrations, radiation environment management effect is remarkable.

In order to improve the ability of urea formaldehyde resin to adsorb uranium, it was modified with asparagine to synthesize NP resin, which was used to enrich uranium in wastewater and improve the monitoring efficiency of uranium in water. The results showed that, in the case of a F/U molar ratio of 0.8 and an amount of asparagine of 5%, the adsorption capacity of the NP resin was 46.98 mg/g with the temperature, pH and equilibrium time set to 25 ℃, 5, and 210 min respectively.

Discussion on Complying with the National Stdandards on Discharging Wastewater Arising from Mines with NORMs

This paper introduced the National Standards that should be implemented in managing radioactive wastewater produced bythe mines associated with NORMs. The paper analysze the difficulty of complyingwith the not-less-than1 Bq/L of imits of gross alpha concentration in wastewater, as given in the National Standards GB 8978—1996. The rationality of the limits is discussed, along with the suggestion being given to revise the Standards.
