原子力施設の廃止措置の終了にあたっては、その敷地に放射性物質による汚染が残存しないことを確認しなければならない。この確認測定のための有効な方法として、可搬型ゲルマニウム半導体検出器によるin-situ測定法が考えられる。同検出器を用いて保守的に敷地の残存放射能を評価できる手法を提案した。本手法は、対象敷地に均一に分布する放射性核種(Cs-137等)が検出器から最も遠く離れた位置に点線源として存在するという仮定のもと、検出可能な最短時間を計算で求めておき、その時間を超えた測定で核種が検出できなければ汚染がないと判断するものである。原子力機構敷地で実施した検証試験に基づき提案した手法は残存放射能を保守的かつ合理的に評価できることを確認した。

Nuclear facility sites after decommissioning are allowed to be released from nuclear safety regulations after confirming that sites have been decontaminated to acceptable levels. In-situ measurement with the use of a portable Ge detector is a suitable technology for confirmatory survey. A conservative method to evaluate residual radioactivity was proposed in this study. In the evaluation method concept, all of the radionuclide, which are in reality distributed across the area of interest, is assumed to be the single point source located at the furthest position of the area from a Ge detector. Based on this assumption, the detectable minimum time of the interest radionuclide were predicted by the calculation. If radiation from the point source is not detected for longer than the predicted detectable time, it can be proven that the radioactivity remaining in the interest area is lower than the radioactivity corresponding to the assumed point source. Results of the field test in JAEA site indicate that the proposed method was reasonable for the conservative evaluation of residual radioactivity.
