The work of preparing Internat

25、ional Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with I

26、SO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Pa

27、rt 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the

28、elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations rec

32、ironment. Thus, water bodies (e.g. surface waters, ground waters, sea waters) can contain radionuclides of natural, human-made or of both origins: natural radionuclides, including 40K, 3H, 14C, and those originating from the thorium and uranium decay series, in particular 226Ra, 228Ra, 234U, 238U, 2

33、10Po and 210Pb, can be found in water for natural reasons (e.g. desorption from the soil and runoff by rain water) or can be released from technological processes involving naturally occurring radioactive materials (e.g. the mining and processing of mineral sands or phosphate fertilizers production

34、and use); anthropogenic radionuclides, such as the transuranium elements (e.g. americium, plutonium, neptunium and curium), 3H, 14C, 90Sr, and some gamma-emitting radionuclides can also be found in natural waters. Small quantities of these radionuclides may be discharged from nuclear fuel cycle faci

35、lities into the environment as the result of authorized routine releases. Some of these radionuclides used for medical and industrial applications may also be released into the environment after use. Anthropogenic radionuclides are also found in waters as the result of past fallout contamination res

36、ulting from the above ground detonation of nuclear devices and accidents such as those that occurred in Chernobyl and Fukushima.Radionuclide activity concentration in water bodies can vary according to local geological characteristics and climatic conditions and can be locally and temporally enhance

37、d by releases from nuclear installation during planned, existing and emergency exposure situations1. Drinking water may thus contain radionuclides at activity concentrations which could present a risk to human health.The radionuclides present in liquid effluents are usually controlled before being d

38、ischarged into the environment2and water bodies. Drinking water may be monitored for their radioactivity as recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO)3. Such control and monitoring can enable to take proper actions to ensure that there is no adverse health effects to the public. Following th

39、ese international recommendations, radionuclide authorized concentration limits for liquid effluent discharged to the environment and radionuclide guidance levels for water bodies and drinking water are usually specified by national regulations for planned, existing and emergency exposure situations

40、. Compliance with these limits can be assessed using measurement results with their associated uncertainties as requested by ISO/IEC Guide 98-3 and ISO 5667-20.Depending on the exposure situation, the limits and guidance levels that would result in an action to reduce health risk differ. As an examp

41、le, during planned or existing situation, the WHO guidance for screening levels in drinking water is 0,5 Bql1for gross alpha activity and 1 Bql1for gross beta activity.NOTE The guidance level is the activity concentration with an intake of 2 ld1of drinking water for 1 year that results in an effecti

42、ve dose of 0,1 mSva1for members of the public, an effective dose that represents a very low level of risk that is not expected to give rise to any detectable adverse health effect3.Thus, the test method may need to be adjusted depending if it is applied for either a planned-existing or an emergency

43、situation since during emergency situations, a large number of samples needs to be rapidly characterized. The test methods could be adapted so that its performance in term of characteristic limits, decision threshold and detection limit, and the uncertainties ensure that the gross activity concentra

44、tion test results permit the verification that they are below the guidance levels required by national authority for either planned-existing situations or an emergency situation567.Usually, the test methods can be adjusted to measure the gross activity concentration of the radionuclide(s) in either

45、wastewaters before storage or in liquid effluents before being discharged to the environment. The test results will enable the plant/installation operator to comply with national regulations in verifying that before their discharge, wastewaters/liquid effluent radioactive activity concentrations are

46、 lower than the authorized limits. ISO 2017 All rights reserved vBS EN ISO 9696:2017ISO 9696:2017(E)The test method(s) described in this document may be used during planned, existing and emergency exposure situations, as well as for wastewaters and liquid effluents with specific modifications that c

47、ould increase the overall uncertainty, detection limit and threshold.The test method(s) may be used for water samples after proper sampling, sample handling and test sample preparation (see the ad hoc part of ISO 5667).An international standard on a test method of gross alpha and gross beta activity

48、 concentrations in water samples is justified for test laboratories carrying out these measurements and may be required by national authorities, as laboratories may have to obtain a specific accreditation for radionuclide measurement of drinking water samples.This document is one of a set of Interna
