| Type: |
Home study |
| Applicable to: |
Residential Measurement and Mitigation credentials |
| Description: |
The disposal of spent granular activated charcoal (GAC) Filters used in the application of residential radon reduction From well water is a concern. Residual radioactivity collected on the filter media, such as natural uranium, radium and lead need to be accounted for in order to minimize problems at the disposal site. Well water is known to contain small quantities of uranium, radon and radium and the GAC filter has varying collection efficiencies for each. Various disposal concerns need to be considered such as U.S. DOT transportation issues, U.S. NRC regulations and state TENORM guidance. This course addresses these issues.
