By the nuclear disaster of Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS), Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake and the following tsunami on March 11, 2011, a large amount of radioactive material was released from the FDNPS. After the nuclear disaster, airborne radiation monitoring using manned helicopter has been conducted around FDNPS. The results of the airborne radiation monitoring and the evaluation for temporal change of dose rate in the fiscal 2020 were summarized in this report. Analysis considering topographical effects was applied to the result of the airborne monitoring to improve the accuracy of conventional method. In addition, technique for discriminating gamma rays from the ground and those from the airborne Rn-progenies was also utilized to evaluate their effect on airborne radiation monitoring.

Times Cited Count：0 Percentile：0.01(Environmental Sciences)During the early phase of a nuclear accident, major radioactive materials are released into the environment, necessitating the prompt deployment of various protective actions to avoid or reduce radiation exposure. To implement these actions, the levels of radioactivity in the environment should be determined. However, the radioactivity concentrations of artificial alpha-particle-emitting radionuclides such as plutonium are difficult to measure in airborne samples, because they are interfered with natural radionuclides such as uranium decay products. Therefore, chemical separation is required to measure the concentrations. This study presents a new emergency monitoring system for airborne samples, which performs multiple-pulse time-interval analysis (MTA) without chemical separation. The system is used in conjunction with an alpha/beta-particle survey meter and adopted an analysis method focusing on the detected time interval of each particle. Its features are that a short time to output measurement result, easy handling and nondestructive. The estimated detection limit of the system was 9.5

Neighboring inhabitants of nuclear facilities must evacuate according to an ambient dose rate at a nuclear accident. The evacuation is judged by the measured value by monitoring posts (MPs). However, if the measured value increase by artificial radionuclide deposited to MP, it is considered that the dose rate of the surrounding environment is overestimated. The purpose of this research is to evaluate exactly the dose rate even if the radionuclide deposit to the MP, in order to adequately evacuate inhabitants. Just a MP and horizontal ground was simulated. To calculate ambient dose rates from the roof surface of MP and ground surface, Monte Carlo calculation was done. And, it was obtained that the ratio which the dose rate from the roof account for sum of two these dose rates. According to the result, the ratio was 42%. It suggested that the radionuclide could increase the measured value. However, because simulated system was simple, it is considered that the ratio was overestimated.

As a correspondence to the accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, the environmental radiation monitoring was performed at the Nuclear Fuel Cycle Engineering Laboratories, JAEA. This report presented the measurement results of ambient radiation dose rate, radioactivity concentration in the air and radioactivity concentration in fallout and meteorological observation result until May 31, 2011. The ambient radiation dose rate increased, with the peak dose rate of several thousand nGy/h at 7 o'clock in March 15, at 5 o'clock in March 16, and at 4 o'clock in March 21. The variation on the radioactivity concentration in the air and in fallout showed the almost same tendency as that of the dose rate. The concentration ratio of I-131/Cs-137 in the air increased to about 100. The dose was estimated resulting from internal exposure due to inhalation.

Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant released radioactive isotope accompany the Great Eastern Japan Earthquake. The radioactive isotope came at Tokai Reprocessing Plant, and their influence cannot be disregarded. Radiological control in reprocessing plant divided degree of influence into 3 situation, so we carried out radiological control depends on each situation.
