This paper reports the amount of 222Rn and 238U in 18 sites of ground water and 30 sites of surface water. The instrument used to count 222Rn activity was the liquid scintillation counter (LSC) which could resolute α and β radiations. And 238U was analyzed by the inductively coupled plasma(ICP). Radon and Uranium were not detected in raw and treated water which were sampled in a water treatment plant. However, radon (222Rn) was high concentration in ground water from Jeon-la, Gang-won. So was uranium (238U) in case of ground water from Gang-won, Choong-chung. Radon (222Rn) activities were detected less than 15 pCi/L at 5 sampling points, 15-300 pCi/L at 7 sampling points, 300-4000 pCi/L at 6 sampling points. However, Radon (222Rn) activities of all ground water samples were less than 4,000 pCi/L, which was bellow American Alternative Maximum Contamination Level (AMCL). Uranium (238U) concentrations were less than 0.1 ㎍/L at 5 sampling points, from 0.1 ㎍/L to 20 ㎍/L at 13 sampling points. Uranium was not detected in about 30% of the whole samples, but the concentration ranged from relatively low to high concentrations depending on the sampling point. The minimum detectable activity (MDA) of radon was 15 pCi/L. and the detection limit of uranium was 0.1 ㎍/L. |
