STUDIES ON THE PROCESSES OF EMERGENCY RESPONSE AT THE FACILITIES OF THE ATOMIC-ENERGY COMPLEX

Abstract

Studies on the processes of emergency response at the facilities of the atomic-energy complex with the release of gaseous and dispersed radioactive substances and hazardous materials into the atmosphere allowed us to develop a procedure for the practical implementation of this method. The emergency response method is aimed at precipitating hazardous radioactive substances from the atmosphere that enter the atmosphere during man-made accidents at nuclear power plants and other facilities for the storage and processing of radioactive substances. The presented procedure allows to solve three main tasks of liquidation of consequences of emergency situations - it is monitoring of the affected area, making effective management decisions and direct influence on the affected area from the emergency. The basis for making effective management decisions is to predict the dynamics of radiation contaminated zones, predict the intensity of precipitation with various methods of artificial precipitation and predict the effectiveness of precipitation effects on the dynamics of changes in contaminated areas. In order to expand the capabilities of existing methods for predicting pollution zones, their modification has been proposed taking into account the features of precipitation.
