dc.description.abstract
This paper describes an equipment for continuous
measurement and identification of gamma radioactivity
in aerosols developed by the Nuclear Engineering Research
Group (NERG) at the Technical University of Catalonia (UPC)
and Raditel Serveis i Subministraments Tecnològics, Ltd. A
spectrometric analysis code has been specially designed for it.
Spectrum analysis identifies and determines activity concentration
of aerosol emitters captured by a fiberglass paper filter.
This new equipment is currently operating in three radioactivity
monitoring stations of the Environmental Radiological Surveillance
Network of the Generalitat of Catalunya (local Catalan
government): two near Ascó and Vandellòs Nuclear Power Plants
in the province of Tarragona and one in the city of Barcelona.
Two more monitors are expected to be deployed at Roses
(province of Girona) and Puigcerdà (province of Barcelona).
Measurements and evolution analysis results of emitters identified
at these stations were also provided.
