Radioactive contamination

Radioactive contamination is mainly produced by the use of natural or artificial radioactive substances, the use of nuclear energy and the invention of the atomic bombhas come to constitute a great danger of contamination for nature and mankind; While many waste polluting materials used for nuclear testing, as well as waste are also in the water used to cool thereactors have spread throughout the land. The most dangerous tests are carried out in the atmosphere and make the force produced by an explosion originating a considerable increase in temperature andproduction of gas and other products that are released into the atmosphere; later with the action of wind and rain these are dragged elsewhere affect the Earth, when they fall to the ground, because theycontaminate crops and the waters of lakes, rivers and seas. This type of pollution is called indirect radioactive contamination which is located in the food chain, starting on the ground and fromthere they spread to the entire Earth and plants and animals causing genetic degenerations in species, and comes to man for contaminated food it consumes; still milk one of the principal means ofcontamination by strontium 90 in children.

Sources of pollution
Radioactive contamination is usually the result of a loss of control over radioactive materials during production or the use of isotopes.For example, if a radioisotope used in medical imaging is accidentally spilled, the material can spread by people who so tread or are exposed to it too long. Radioactive contamination may also be theinevitable result of certain processes, such as the release of radioactive Xenon in nuclear fuel reprocessing. In cases in which radioactive material can not be confined, it can be diluted to safeconcentrations. The fallout is the distribution of radioactive pollution generated by a nuclear explosion. The containment is the means to ensure that radioactive material will not act as radioactive...
