Assessment of Radiation dose from Inhalation of Outdoor Dust Containing Natural Radionuclides.

The 238U, 232Th and 40K concentrations were estimated in the size-fractionated urban surface deposited sediments in Ekaterinburg, Russia. The average concentrations of 238U, 232Th and 40K in dust fraction (0.002-0.05 mm) are 48 ± 7, 28 ± 1 and 510 ± 20 Bq/kg, respectively. The effective dose is estimated depending on the suggested daily scenarios of different exercises which can be assigned to light, moderate and vigorous activity. The results show that the total effective dose received during 20 years by an adult with the light activity is 5.6 μSv under exposure to air dust concentration 1 × 10-4 g/m3, which is typical for the city of Ekaterinburg. Although for the moderate and vigorous activities the total effective dose is 9.9 μSv and 48.8 μSv, respectively, during 20 years at air dust concentration equal to the diurnal Maximum Permissible Limit (1.5 × 10-4 g/m3). Thus, the effective doses due to natural radionuclides in the dust fraction are relatively low in comparison ICRP reference level.
