Abstract:
In this thesis we have determined the different radionuclides of both natural and artificial origin in environmental samples. These samples studied are under the influence of industrialization of the Ebro river basin. Specifically in this area are located Asco nuclear power plant, dicalcium phosphate industry and finally the water treatment plant. All these industries may affect radiologically the water quality of the Ebro river. On the other hand, we have also evaluated the activity concentrations of naturally occurring radionuclides in different types of molluscs cultivated in the mouth of the Ebro River, specifically in the Ebro delta. The interest of this study lies in the importance of estimate the dose intake of these foods through the diet.
