Environmental Consequences of the Chernobyl Accident and Their Remediation
Author: International Atomic Energy Agency
Publisher: IAEA
ISBN: 9789201147059
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 166
Book Description
The explosion on 26 April 1986 at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and the consequent reactor fire resulted in an unprecedented release of radioactive material from a nuclear reactor and adverse consequences for the public and the environment. Although the accident occurred nearly two decades ago, controversy still surrounds the real impact of the disaster. Therefore the IAEA, in cooperation with other UN bodies, the World Bank, as well as the competent authorities of Belarus, the Russian Federation and Ukraine, established the Chernobyl Forum in 2003. The mission of the Forum was to generate 'authoritative consensual statements' on the environmental consequences and health effects attributable to radiation exposure arising from the accident as well as to provide advice on environmental remediation and special health care programmes, and to suggest areas in which further research is required. This report presents the findings and recommendations of the Chernobyl Forum concerning the environmental effects of the Chernobyl accident.

International Conference "Fifteen Years After the Chernobyl Accident. Lessons Learned"

Languages : en
Pages : 11
Book Description
Now that 15 years have passed since the Chernobyl disaster, it is possible to weigh up more fully its causes and consequences, as well as the effectiveness of the countermeasures implemented. During those years many different views have been expressed on the radionuclide contamination of the areas, foodstuffs, water bodies and forests, on the state of the destroyed reactor, the number of casualties, and the consequences for public health. It is quite clear, however, that this disaster significantly changed the lives of millions of people - especially in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine - living in the most heavily contaminated areas. Based on a common understanding of the causes and consequences of the accident, as well as the efficiency of the response, the Conference has determined the main lessons learned from the Chernobyl catastrophe and has drawn the following conclusions and recommendations.

Chernobyl
Author: Alexey V. Yablokov
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 1573317578
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
This volume, written by leading authorities from Eastern Europe, outlines the history of the health and environmental consequences of the Chernobyl disaster. Although there has been much discussion concerning the impacts of nuclear accidents, and Chernobyl in particular, never before has there been a comprehensive presentation of all the available information concerning the health and environmental effects of the low dose radioactive contaminants that were emitted from the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. The official discussions emanating from the IAEA and associated UN agencies (e.g. the Chernobyl Forum reports) have largely downplayed or ignored many of the findings reported in the Eastern European scientific literature and as a consequence these reports have erred on the side of negative findings simply because much of what was known was not included in their assessments. This new book provides a complete and extensive summary of all known research, including that published in Russian and Ukrainian, and provides new insights to the likely long term health and environmental consequences of nuclear accidents. NOTE: Annals volumes are available for sale as individual books or as a journal. For information on institutional journal subscriptions, please visit www.blackwellpublishing.com/nyas.
