TENORM Characterisation, Conditioning and Remediation to be Reused in New Products and Associated Possible Public Member and Occupational Hazard
If the TENORM is a byproduct originating from any energy gaining technological production process is to be reused as a product – raw material for other advanced product it has to meet the ultimate condition regulating the content of NORM or TENORM material in a final product. It means that the minimum requirements to be achieved are to mix the TENORM material with any other suitable material resulting in final Hex less than unity (Hex<1) for any quantity of TENORM mixed. Despite of a present lack of national legislation covering the use and handling of NORM and TENORM we can use the existing worldwide recommendations based on thorough radiological characterization. If the recommended UNSCEAR 2000 limit values are used as a base for discussion demanding that the TENORM is to be mixed with other suitable materials and monitored before further reuse as a constructing material product, especially constructing material for human housing, the listed quantities: Raeq, Hex, D(nGy/h), Hin, Iyr, Dind(mSv/ r), Dout(mSv/yr), Sampling site – GPS (coordinates of TENORM samples) calculated from the measured dose rate and activity concentration data will be the key quantities describing the radiological characterization of any TENORM facility. The reuse of TENORM in a new product is recommended (if economically costeffective) but only under the professional supervision of total radionuclide activity content in final product. We are presenting the public hazard assessment procedure at hosphogypsum (PG) tailing facility as a specific TENORM site which has nothing in common with dangerous or hazardous RadWaste in the sense of the existing legal legislation, not EU nor national Croatian. The EU and national legislation based on the definition of reference levels of radio nuclides present in TENORM is in process and Article 35 of Euratom Treaty is in process to be taken into account in future.
