Latar belakang : Radionuklida natural ditemukan hampir di semua media lingkungan, dan di lingkungan laut terdeteksi cukup tinggi karena adanya proses erosi, pelapukan dan daur ulang mineralyang mengalami perpindahan melalui badan air. Radionuklida natural tersebutdapat berpindah ke berbagai media, termasuk ke manusia melalui rantai makanan.Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memberikan informasi dasar mengenai tingkat radioaktivitas di lingkungan perairan laut di Pesisir Pulau Bengkalis dan melakukan penilaian dampak bahaya radiologis melalui aktivitas ekuivalen radium (Raeq) dan indeks bahaya eksternal (Hex)serta laju dosis eksternal dari radionuklida natural.Metode: Metode deskriptif digunakan dalam penelitian ini dan metode pengambilan sample sedimen menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Sampelsedimen dikumpulkan dari 6 titik pengambilan sampel di pesisir Pulau Bengkalis, menggunakan sediment grab. Sampel kemudian dikeringkan dan dihomogenkan kemudian ditimbang sebanyak 1 kg. Pengukuran aktivitas radionuklida dilakukan menggunakan spektrometri gama dengan waktu cacah selama 3 hari. Aktivitas 226Ra ditentukan berdasarkan emisi sinar gamma 214Pb dan 214Bi. Aktivtias 232Th ditentukan berdasarkan emisi 212Pb dan 228Ac dan 40K ditentukan dari emisi pada 1461,8 keV. Hasil analisis akan digunakan untuk menghitung dampak radiologis di lingkungan mengunakan ekuivalen aktivitas radium dan indeks bahaya eksternal.Hasil: Aktivitas rata-rata berturut turut 56,45 ; 31,34 ; 26,04 ; 33,19 ; 30,00 dan 185,49 Bq/kg untuk radio nuklida226Ra, 212Pb, 214Pb, 214Bi, 228Ac dan 40K. Aktivitas terukur mempunyai kisaran nilai yang berdekatan dengan pengukuran di beberapa negara.Penghitungan nilai aktivitas ekuivalen radium (Raeq) berkisar dari 82,61 - 138 Bq/kg dan tidak melebihi nilai yang ditetapkan oleh ICRP (1990) dan OECD (179) yaitu sebesar 370 Bq/kg. Nilai indeks bahaya eksternal (Hex) masih dibawah 1, dengan nilai rata rata sebesar 0,31, dan laju dosis dari radionuklida natural sebesar 37,175 nGy/h.Simpulan:Aktivitas radionuklida natural di pesisirPulauBengkalismempunyai kisaran nilai yang berdekatan dengan pengukuran di beberapa Negara. Nilai aktivitas ekuivalen radium (Raeq) Yang terukur tidak melebihi nilai yang ditetapkan oleh ICRP (1990) dan OECD (179).  Nilai indeks bahaya eksternal (Hex) masih dibawah 1, dan laju dosis yang diserap lingkungan dari radionuklida natural masih dibawah nilai rata rata dunia. Dengan demikian, dapat disimpulkan bahwa parameter radiologis radionuklida natural dalam sedimen di pesisir Pulau Bengkalis berada dalam batas yang dapat diterima. AbstractTitle : --Background: Natural radionuclides are found in almost all environmental media, and in the marine compartment have been detected relative high due to the process of erosion, weathering and recycling of minerals that come trough the water bodies. Radionuclides can move to various media, including to the humans through the food chain. This research was conducted to provide baseline information about the activity of radioactivity in the marine environment of the Bengkalis Island Coast and conduct radiological hazard impact assessments through equivalent radium (Raeq) and external hazard index (Hex) and external dose rates of natural radionuclides.Method: Descriptive methods were used in this study and the sediment sampling method used a purposive sampling method. Sediment samples were collected from 6 sampling points on the coast of Bengkalis Island, using sediment grab. The samples were then dried, homogenized and weighed 1 kg. Measurement of radionuclide activity was carried out using gamma spectrometry with counting time for 3 days. The 226Ra activity is determined based on 214Pb and 214Bi gamma ray emissions. The 232Th activity was determined based on 212Pb and 228Ac and 40K emissions determined from emissions at 1461.8 keV. The results of the analysis will be used to calculate the radiological impact in the environment using equivalent radium activity and external hazard index.Results: The average activity are 56.45; 31.34; 26.04; 33.19; 30.00 and 185.49 Bq/kg for radionuclides 226Ra, 212Pb, 214Pb, 214Bi, 228Ac and 40K respectively. The value of this activity comparable withthe activities in several countries.The calculation of radium equivalent activity (Raeq) values ranges from 82.61 - 138 Bq / kg and does not exceed the value 370 Bq / kg by ICRP (1990) and OECD (179). The external hazard index value (Hex) is still below 1, with an average value of 0.31, and the dose rate of natural radionuclides is 37,175 nGy / h.Conclusion: Natural radionuclide activity on the coast of Bengkalis Island has a range of values adjacent to measurements in several countries. The measured value of radium (Raeq) activity does not exceed the value set by ICRP (1990) and OECD (179). The external hazard index value (Hex) is still below 1, and the absorbed dose rate of natural radionuclides is still below the world average value. Thus, it can be concluded that the radiological parameters of natural radionuclides in sediments on the coast of Bengkalis Island are within acceptable limits.

Abstract

Penelitan mengenai distribusi radionuklida 137Cs pada sedimen dan air laut permukaan  dan kajian dampaknya terhadap biota telah dilakukan di perairan laut di sepanjang pesisir barat Pulau Sumatera, pada 2015. Sampel sedimen diambil menggunakan sedimen grab, dikeringkan, dihaluskan dan dihomogenkan. Sampel air laut permukaan sebanyak 80 liter diprekonsentrasi dan endapannya dikeringkan. Pengukuran dilakukan menggunakan spektrometri gamma baik untuk sedimen dan air laut. Hasil pengukuran aktivitas 137Cs pada sedimen berkisar dari 0,013 Bq/Kg sampai dengan 0,589 Bq/Kg dengan rerata 0,233 Bq/Kg (n=18) dan pada air laut permukaan dari 0,042 Bq/m3 sampai dengan 0,205 Bq/m3 dengan rerata sebesar 0,123 Bq/m3 (n=7). Aktivitas 137Cs pada sedimen dan air laut yang terukur sepanjang pesisir barat Pulau Sumatera mempunyai rentang konsentrasi aktivitas yang hampir sama dengan hasil penelitian yang dilakukan lokasi lainnya di Samudera India. Menggunakan program Erica Tool Tier 2, diketahui bahwa tidak ada dampak 137Cs terhadap biota pada lokasi penelitian, karena nilai rasio total dosis yang diterima oleh biota tersebut lebih kecil dari 1 dibandingkan dengan screening level Tier 2 sebesar 10 μGy/h.

Abstract

Graphical Abstract Highlight Research 226Ra and 232Th were determined in sediments and seawater of Cirebon waters. The activity of natural radionuclides varies in Cirebon waters. Natural radioactivity in sediment is relatively higher than in seawater. Natural radioactivity in sediment and seawater is comparable to other regions' levels.   Abstract 226Ra and 232Th are natural radionuclides with long half-lives, and they have a dangerous radiation exposure effect on marine biota and even humankind. This study investigates the activity concentration and horizontal distribution of natural radionuclides 226Ra and 232Th in sediments and seawater from the coastal waters of Cirebon, Indonesia, directly adjacent to the Cirebon Coal-Fired Power Station (CFPS). The activity concentrations of 226Ra and 232Th radioactivity were measured using gamma-ray spectrometry. Radioactivity analysis of 226Ra and 232Th was conducted on sediment and seawater columns. Furthermore, Ocean Data View (ODV) version 5.8.2 software was used to analyse the horizontal distribution pattern. The results showed that the highest concentrations of 226Ra and 232Th radioactivity were found in the sediment rather than the water column, even though they varied by location. The concentration activity of 226Ra and 232Th radioactivity was found to be a linear function of distance from the potential pollution source. Higher activity was detected at stations closer to the pollution source (CFPS). There was no significant effect of the depth of radionuclide distribution. Further monitoring activities at Cirebon’s CFPS should be conducted to predict and manage the impact on biota and human life.

Abstract

Research has been conducted on the determination activity of natural radionuclides at hot springs in Bogor Regency, West Java. This study aimed to determine the concentration value of natural radionuclide activity in hot springs. This study used water samples taken from water samples taken from water in two different hot spring locations, namely in Gunung Panjang Hot Spring and Gunung Panjang Hot Spring. Activity concentrations were measured using an HPGe gamma spectrometer for radionuclides 238U, 232Th, and 40K. Activity concentrations for radionuclide 238U ranged from (0.13 ± 0.01) to (33.82 ± 0.24) Bq/L, for 232Th ranged from (0.08 ± 0.01) to (100.30 ± 0.01) Bq/L and 40K ranged from (0.18 ± 0.01) to (416.84 ± 0.09) Bq/L. The concentration values of 238U, 232Th, and 40K are still below the specified threshold. The activity concentration limit of radionuclides recommended by PERKA BAPETEN No. 9 Year 2009 on Intervention Against Exposure from Technologically Enhanced Naturally Occurring Radioactive Material is 1000 Bq/L for 238U and 232Th and 10,000 Bq/L for 40K.

Abstract

Utilization of various radioactive sources in Indonesia, including nuclear fuel, nuclear waste, and radioactive minerals, has significantly increased to support research, industry, and healthcare services. This usage necessitates an evaluation of environmental impacts, particularly the increase in background radiation in the context of radioecology. Radionuclides like cesium, which are highly soluble in water, can be released into marine waters through leaks from nuclear power plants, radioactive waste, and military weapons tests, potentially harming marine ecosystems and the food chain. Therefore, periodic monitoring of underwater radiation exposure is crucial. This study aims to develop a gamma-ray radiation dose monitoring system underwater using a wireless Geiger-muller counter and LabVIEW-based interface. The system comprises a Geiger-muller counter for measuring radiation doses, an nRF24l01+ module for data transmission, and a LabVIEW application as the display panel. Testing was conducted by submerging a radioactive cesium source into a water tank with varying distances and depths. Radiation data were measured by the Geiger-muller counter, transmitted via the nRF24l01+ to the receiver, processed by Arduino Uno, and displayed in LabVIEW. The LabVIEW application also provides alerts if the dose exceeds the threshold and records the dose values. Test results showed the lowest measurement success rate of 17% at position 7 and the highest of 30% at position 1.
