C-4-110 - Addressing Radon Decay Products - Another Tool in the Tool Box (CERTI-324)
.jpg)
|
It is well known the mechanism by which radon exposure increases the potential of lung cancer is alpha release from the short-lived decay products of radon and the amount of these decay products available for respiration can vary due to air circulation rates, particulate levels, etc. This course explores from a practical standpoint how radon decay products are measured and how RDP reduction can enhance soil gas remediation by reducing radon risks to very low levels. This course was presented at the request of the Canadian Association of Radon Scientists and Technologists at its Annual Meeting in Banff, Alberta on April 23, 2017. Although provided to a Canadian audience it has application for radon professionals around the world. |

Janice said: Good intro course for RDPs. Basic but use a few equations.
Kenny said:Awesome course! I didn't realize how much air movement and filtering would help. It appears that air movement causes more plating out and filtering captures some of what hasn't plated out.The info is as the course topic suggest, Another Tool in the Tool Box. I cant keep up with Doug and his math conversions to WL since we rarely use it here in the US. I'm going to start paying more attention to these issues while doing Building Investigation and suggestions for repairs.
John said: very good
Eric said:Interesting content and the dose of radiation actually exposed to.
John said: Good Course
John said:Excellent course.
Jeffrey said: Informative and succinct
Michael said:Mr. Kladder is always informative and his presentations are easily understood.
Brian said: This course was well documented and helpful toward my working knowledge in the professional radon field.
Lisa said:Great teacher! Really appreciate the extra material and the explanations provided for each quiz question. More quiz questions would even be better!
Dennis said: Excellent course.
Vickie said:I'm so glad that I took this class! Doug Kladder describes radon decay products in a way that I understood it so much better than I did before! I now understand working levels, and how the products attach to dust...and how air filtration and air movement can affect the RDPs.

Charles said:I enjoyed the course because when I put the time and money into taking one, I want to learn something. It was both informative and thought provoking. As you said...another tool for the tool box.
Matthew said: Very informative, Speakers of course well spoken and I definately felt prepared for the course quiz
Paul said: I would recommend this course
Craig said: Interesting course. Its good to learn new information.
Rachel said: I recommend this course 5 out of 5

Thomas said: Once again... Thank You Doug for recommending this course.
This was probably the most enlightening and behind the scenes look at understanding the overall Health risk of Radon and the most in depth description of what exactly is going on and how to reduce the risk and mitigate the problem....Thank you!
Anthony said:Very Interesting. I've been testing for radon for eight years now and I definitely learned something from this course and would recommend it to others.
Gregory said: I would recommend this course
Michael said:Very good course, made my brain have to work a bit, Finally learned something new!!!!
