This book presents a comprehensive study of the environmental
situation prevailing in the areas located near the Koshkar-Ata
(Kazakhstan) tailings dump and the development of rehabilitation
measures taking into account the area's soil and climatic features.
Given their impact on the local population's health, rehabilitation
activities and their monitoring are vital for countries where
nuclear power technologies are developed and where uranium mining
industry wastes exist. Book analyzes the negative influences of the
tailings on soil and vegetation cover on near-ground atmospheric
layers and groundwater. Based on radiometric, field and laboratory
analytical research methods, it presents quantitative information
on the levels of pollution of the environment by radionuclides and
chemical toxicants, and includes the results of constant monitoring
of dust from radioactive and toxic wastes in the area. The book
also offers recommendations for technical solutions for reclaiming
radioactive tailing ponds, as well as for the development of
disposal sites for radioactive waste in the tailing ponds, based on
effective rehabilitation technologies developed at two control
sites. The study attracted considerable interest from the Republic
of Kazakhstan's state authorities and public organizations, and
raised awareness of the need for rehabilitation measures at the
KOSHKAR-ATA tailing pond. The monograph is intended for specialists
in the field of environmental protection and radiation ecology, as
well as senior undergraduate and graduate students, doctoral
students and young scientists. This publication is recommended by
the Academic Council of the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National
University.
