Influence of soil properties on soil-to-plant transfer factors of natural radionuclides in the vicinity of coal fired power plants in Serbia
Abstract
Study of coal fired power plants environmental impact have been performed analyzing activity concentrations of natural radionuclides 238U, 226Ra, 232Th and 40K in the samples of soil and native vegetation collected in the vicinity of TE “Kolubara”, TE “Morava” and TE “Nikola Tesla” A and B power plants. Soil-to-grass transfer factor values (kg kg-1 dry mass) were calculated. Some soil characteristics such as particle size distribution, soil pH, organic matter content and carbonate content were determined in order to examine their influence on natural radionuclides soil-to-plant transfer factors, assuming TFs are mostly controlled by root uptake.
