The study was carried out to determine radioactivity concentrations in surface soil samples of the city of Edirne in connection with the potential radiological hazards due to Chernobyl event. The natural radionuclide ((226)Ra, (232)Th and (40)K) contents were determined for nine different locations in nine different towns of the Edirne city. Radiation levels were measured. Natural beta-ray activity was also determined for the same locations. The average estimated activity values were determined and compared with reported values for other cities in Turkey and also for many countries of the world. The studied areas do not pose radiological risks to the inhabitants due to harmful effects of the ionizing radiation from the natural radioactivity of the soil.

In this study remediation of selenium ions from aqueous solutions was investigated using organic pillared bentonite as an adsorbent. Organic pillared bentonite was produced from Resadiye (Tokat, Turkey) bentonite using hexadecylpyridinium chloride and aluminum polyoxy-cations. All the experiments were carried out by tracing with selenium radioisotope. For the production of the radioactive selenium radioisotope, selenium dioxide was irradiated in the central thimble of ITU TRIGA Mark II Training and Research Reactor at Energy Institute of Istanbul Technical University. Radioactivity measurements carried out by the gamma-ray spectroscopy system were used to determine of selenium isotope. The relative importance of test parameters like concentration of adsorbate, pH of the solution and contact time on adsorption performance of organic pillared bentonite for selenium ion was studied. Evaluation of experiments for different parameters showed possibility of remediation of selenium from aqueous media by using organic pillared bentonite.
