Abstract:
Radon (222Rn) is an odorless and invisible radioactive gas. It is produced by the radioactive decay of 226Ra and is soluble in water. The presence of radon on Earth is large and it is found in all places where radium can be found. The dominant sources of radon are rocks, soil and water. Radon is the largest source of natural radiation and is recognized as one of the most significant risk factors for lung cancer. Water monitoring has a key role in assessing radiological safety, water quality and identifying sources of contamination. Contemporary techniques for determining radon in water play a key role in providing quality monitoring. This paper provides an overview of the different methods of measuring radon in water, emphasizing the advantages and limitations of each technique. Further development and application of these methods can significantly contribute to ensuring water quality and protecting human health from potential dangers caused by radon in water.
