Special Session S8 (1): Natural Radioactivity in the Environment
Meeting room: Conference room 3
Chair: Conrad Dorer
University of Applied Sciences Magdeburg-Stendal, Germany
ROOM 1
Time Presenter Type Title Topic in one sentence
10:30 Chair Introduction to the session
1.1 - Regulatory Framework - NORM
10:30 Dr. Huyen Thi Le (Vietnam) oral Management of NORM waste from rare earths mining and processing in Vietnam: a potential governance pathway The study argues that, as Vietnam plans to expand its rare earth sector, it urgently needs a comprehensive legal and regulatory system for the safe and effective management of NORM waste, and that practical elements from Australia, France, and the UK can be adopted to achieve this.
10:50 Dr. Ariel Humphrey (France-USA) oral Updated legal and regulatory framework for Naturally Occurring Radioactive Materials (NORMs) in France: a review 2025 review of France’s NORM regime—strong EU-aligned controls and ICPE integration, but gaps in land-use planning, transparency, and sector guidance—set against the ASN/IRSN merger into ASNR.
1.2 - Poster session #1: Case Studies
11:10 Msc. Ilsa Rosianna (Indonesia) Poster S8.1 Radiological Assessment from External Exposure: A Case Study at Tin Smelter in Bangka, Indonesia We quantify external exposure along the tin smelting process: slag areas dominate dose rates, materials exceed 1 Bq/g for U-238/Th-232, and calculated worker doses remain under regulatory limits but still call for control measures.
11:15 Ms. Saowarak Musikawan (Thailand) Poster S8.2 Determination of 210Po in Foodstuffs Consumed at a Former Tin Mining Area in Thailand We measured 210-Po in foods eaten near a former tin mine in Thailand and found markedly higher levels in seafood—especially squid and shrimp—driving the highest ingestion doses (up to ~5.3 mSv/year).
1.3 - Environmental radioactivy and radon measurements (including poster session #2)
11:20 Assoc. Prof. Chutima Kranrod (Thailand) Poster S8.3 Calibration of Passive Radon Progeny Monitors Using CR-39 Detectors: Evaluation of Conversion Factors in Indoor and Controlled Environments We test a simple radon-progeny detector (CR-39) and set the “conversion numbers.” These numbers change a lot in different places—because tiny ²¹⁸Po particles stick more to the detector—so each place needs its own calibration.
11:25 MSc. Do Thi Thu (Vietnam) Poster S8.4 Characterization of Radon level in soil gas in Cam Loc Mine of Khanh Hoa Province, Vietnam and a decline in indoor radon concentrations after none- exploitation of granite Cam Loc before–after study: soil-gas mapping and indoor surveys show that after granite mining stopped, indoor radon fell to within Vietnamese and U.S. EPA limits.
11:30 Dr. Eka Djatnika Nugraha (Indonesia) oral Nationwide Survey of Environmental Radioactivity in Indonesia Indonesia’s first nationwide baseline (2004–2024): 4,413 sites in 32 provinces mapped for ambient dose and soil radionuclides, revealing high natural radiation areas (e.g., Mamuju) to guide health policy and UNSCEAR reporting.

Special Session S8 (2): Natural Radioactivity in the Environment
Meeting room: Conference room 3
Chair: Conrad Dorer
University of Applied Sciences Magdeburg-Stendal, Germany
ROOM 1
2.1 - Experiences from practice: Sampling & Remediation
14:00 Dr. Christian Kunze (Germany) oral Towards an adequate characterisation of NORM This talk argues that practitioners (and regulators) should prioritize the physical-chemical understanding and sampling-led characterization of NORM over rule subtleties to avoid misinterpretation and misguided risk.
14:20 Mr. Lars Uhlig (Germany) oral Remediation of Uranium Legacy Sites in Uzbekistan Decades-old uranium legacies at Yangiabad and Charkesar were risk-assessed and, with EC/EBRD support, remediated in 2023–2025—sealing openings, stabilizing wastes, and cutting radiological and geotechnical risks while building local capacity.
2.1 - Re-use and management NORM residues: the case of heavy mineral sands
14:40 Dr. Nguyen Ba Tien (Vietnam) oral Management and Reuse of NORM Wastes in Vietnam: A Case of Titanium Mining and Processing Vietnam case study: status, legal framework, monitoring data, and concrete options to reuse NORM wastes from titanium sands—balancing radiological risks with circular-economy opportunities.
15:00 MSc. Conrad Dorer (Germany) oral Re-use of NORM residues from Vietnam’s heavy mineral sands: RENO-TITAN’s approach and transferable lessons RENO-TITAN maps the full radionuclide balance of Vietnam’s heavy-mineral-sands chain and pilots reuse/disposal under national criteria to enable safe, circular valorisation of NORM residues—offering transferable lessons to other sectors.
