Gesundheitsrisiko infolge natürlicher Radioaktivität in Wohn- und Aufenthaltsräumen
Andreas Guhr und Bernd Leißring Zusammenfassung Summary Newer health-studies to the lung-cancer-risk of the population through the radon-exposition in buildings has yielded clearly higher lung cancer risk as previously estimated. By annually 40000 new lung-cancer-cases in Germany, 3000 are attributed to the inhalation of the radon in buildings. The rebuilding of these buildings to the purpose of energy-saving according to the EnEV 2002, is responsible for a two- to eigthfold increase of the radon exposure in nearly 50 % of the reconstructed buildings. In some cases a factor of 10 or 12 was found. A special software, SAORIS, was developed in order to predict in the advance of the planned reconstruction the most probable change of the radon concentration. In the case of a prediction of to high values of the radon concentration now the reconstruction-measure can be optimized on this basis so that no health-endangering radon-exposition originates. umwelt-medizin-gesellschaft 18 (2): 126-129 Autoren: Dr. Andreas Guhr, Kompetenzzentrum für Radonsicheres Bauen und Sanieren e.V Dr. habil Bernd Leißring, Akademie zur Erforschung und Abwehr von Umweltschäden und zur Biologischen Regeneration e.V., Korrespondenzanschrift: Dr. Andreas Guhr, Dorothea-Viehmann Str. 28, 12524 Berlin zurück zum Seitenanfang |
