Natural Radioactivity in Fresh Water System
Abstract: Measurement of natural radioactivity in drinking water has been performed for the assessment of the doses and the risks resulting from consuming water. Ingestion is a major pathway for internal exposure; hence, the measurement of radioactivity in drinking water is relevant. The dose contribution is primarily due to the presence of naturally occurring radionuclides of the uranium and thorium series. It is observed that the most natural radioactivity present in …

Improvement of Properties of Expansive Soil using Terrazyme
Abstract: Enzymatic emulsions contain enzymes that react with soil molecules to form a cementing bond that stabilizes the soil structure and reduces the soil’s affinity for water. When the bio-enzymes like Terrazyme, are mixed with soil they alter its engineering properties. When added to a soil, the enzymes increases the wetting and bonding capacity of the soil particles and improves the chemical bonding between soil particles and creating a more permanent …
