This study was carried out to investigate builds up a rule map on various radiological factors in and around the Euphrates River in Iraq. Radon levels, radium content and surface and mass radon exhalation rates for 20 sediment tests gathered from different districts along the Euphrates River, Iraq, (about 500km long) using the can technique, with the CR-39 plastic detector. Radon fixation esteems were viewed as going from 835.0 to 2797.7 Bq.m-3 with a normal worth of 1703.5 Bq.m-3. The normal worth of radium content was viewed as 12.5 Bg.kg-1 while the most minimal and most elevated determined upsides of radium content (CRa) were 6.1 and 20.5 Bq.kg-1, respectively. The radon exhalation rates (surface ES and mass Em) for the study sediment samples were found to vary from (0.41 to 1.37) Bq.m-2.h-1 and from (0.09 to 0.31) Bq.kg-1.h-1with average values of 0.83 Bq.m-2.h-1 and 0.19 Bq.kg-1.h-1, respectively. The values of CRa for all sediment samples were lower than the recommended value of 30 Bq.kg-1 given by UNSCEAR. Hence, the results show that the study area is safe as far as the health hazard effects are concerned, and the values of radium content in all surveyed sites are lower than the allowable limit.
A field survey was carried out for the cities of Ramadi and Haditha, which included calculating water volumes and assessing their quality for the purpose of irrigation used in house according to the nature of their uses in the house. Data and samples were obtained in collaboration with volunteers from the college of Agriculture, Girls college of Education and some of the residents of Ramadi, of the Basic Education faculty and some of the people in Haditha, and the data and samples obtained were up to 200 samples. The study showed the possibility of isolating the water used for domestic purposes from the water cycles and the possibility of reusing it for agricultural purposes as it became clear that the wastewater other than the toilets fall within the category C3S1 according to the USA classification, while the FAO classification of high quality to cause salinity risk and he study also proved that at least 65% can be reclaimed for irrigation purposes, equivalent to 389382000 m3 ,which can be harvested at the national level is 6% water deficit in Iraq .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
