The Evolution of Internal Dosimetry Bioassay Methods at the Savannah River Site
Throughout the 50-year history of the Savannah River Site (SRS), its employees have engaged in many activities that potentially could result in an accidental intake of radioactive material. For that reason, radiation workers have always been monitored for internal deposits of radioactive material. An overview of in vitro and in vivo monitoring methods are provided, as well as computational meth...
متن کاملLeukemia mortality among workers at the Savannah River Site.
The authors investigated associations between ionizing radiation and leukemia mortality among workers at the Savannah River Site (South Carolina). A total of 18,883 workers hired between 1950 and 1986 were followed through 2002 to ascertain causes of death. Estimates of radiation doses from external sources and internal tritium uptakes were derived from dosimetry records through 1999. Radiation...
متن کاملNew Life for Savannah River Site
STAMP is a newly developed web server that is designed to support the study of DNA-binding motifs. STAMP may be used to query motifs against databases of known motifs; the software aligns input motifs against the chosen database (or alternatively against a user-provided dataset), and lists of the highest-scoring matches are returned. Such similarity-search functionality is expected to facilitat...
متن کاملModeling of the Savannah River Site High Level Waste
Three evaporators are used to reduce the volume of waste in the waste tank farm at the Savannah River Site (SRS). Evaporators are crucial operation in the SRS waste processing and management system. Using the Aspen Custom Modeler (ACM) software package marketed by Aspen Technology, Inc., the evaporator dynamic flowsheet models have been constructed to simulate the behavior of the evaporator sy...
متن کاملRisk-based radioactive liquid effluent monitoring requirements at the U.S. Department of Energy's Savannah River Site.
For Department of Energy (DOE) facilities, clear regulatory guidance exists for structuring radiological air emissions monitoring programs. However, there are no parallel regulations for radiological liquid effluent monitoring programs. In order to bridge this gap and to technically justify liquid effluent monitoring decisions at DOE's Savannah River Site, a graded, risk-based approach has been...
