- Abstract
- The area around the Euganean Hills (North-East Italy) is concerned
with thermal phenomena known and used for therapeutic purposes
since ancient times. The thermal waters collected in this area have
taken up a natural radionuclides content due to the leaching of hot
and permeable deep rocks, with which they come into contact, before
their rising to the surface. During the \"maturation\" process of the
mud used for treatment purposes, the thermal waters make happen a
complex series of biochemical changes and release a series of chemical
species to the mud, resulting, in particular, in an enrichment phenomenon
for some radionuclides. In this work, the first radiochemical
analysis extended to all the Euganean Thermal District is reported.
In particular, chemical analyses of mud, as well as radiochemical analyses
of both mud and waters were performed; the enrichment of the
radioisotopes in mud used for treatments was also documented. The
results show that the 226Ra content in mud, during the \"maturation\"
process, presents an enrichment even of one order of magnitude with
respect to the value found in the unprocessed mud. Furthermore, in
the same thermal waters, high concentrations of \"unsupported\" 222Rn
have been found, which have shown to be not completely negligible
both for people under treatment and particularly for spa workers. (literal)
