Special Issue on Radioactive Pollution and Safety

Radioactive contaminants are mainly harmful to the human body and other organisms through radiation. The rays that cause harm are mainly alpha rays, beta rays and gamma rays. Radioactive waste produced by various sources of radiation can be divided into radioactive waste gas, radioactive waste liquid and radioactive solid waste according to its physical form. There is no effective way to destroy radioactive material in radioactive waste to make its radioactivity disappeared. Therefore, at present, we only use the characteristics of radioactive natural attenuation to seal up in a longer time and reduce the intensity of radiation, so as to achieve the purpose of eliminating radioactive pollution. The goal of this special issue is to provide a platform for scientists and academicians all over the world to promote, share, and discuss various new issues and developments in the area of radioactive pollution and safety.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original researches and review articles on exploring radioactive pollution and safety. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Radioactive pollution source
• Radiation exposure
• Radioactive waste in atomic industry
• Harm of radioactive pollution
• Monitoring and assessment of radioactive pollution
• Prevention and control of radioactive pollution
• Radioactive waste disposal
• Nuclear safety
• Marine radioactive pollution

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly notice that the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title is supposed to be specified and the research field “Special Issue – Radioactive Pollution and Safety” should be chosen during your submission.

According to the following timetable:
