C-4-110 - Addressing Radon Decay Products - Another Tool in the Tool Box (CERTI-324)
|
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. |

Ryan said: The Course Material were excellent training for understanding Radon Decay! The quiz was relevant to the questions! Thanks for the education, the course gets better every time and very informational.
Todd said:Carrie FriedlineVery good technical course and well structured from start to finish. Did an excellent job providing the information in a way that makes it easy to grasp. Thought the quiz was challenging, but suited the content of the class well. Definitely have to understand the course material/presentation in order to pass the quiz.

Janice said:Nick MescherGood 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.

Dennis said:Sandy Prior ThomasExcellent 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.

Thomas said:Merlin SmithOnce 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.
