On the escaping radioactivity from coal power plants (CPP).

The escaping radioactivity from Greek coal power plants (CPP) was studied. For the case studied the radioactivity is due to the uranium series. The major part (99%) escapes as very fine particles, while the rest is fly ash. The total escaping 226Ra activity is of the order of 40 Ci/yr. The particulate dispersion of fly ash in sites around the stacks of CPP is described. The hazards from the escaping radioactivity are evaluated.
