NATURALLY OCCURRING RADIOACTIVE MATERIAL I NORM I CAUTION

Please subscribe to Channel

Some radioactive materials, often referred to as “NORM”, exists in the earth’s crust naturally. Human activities that brings NORM to surface may cause NORM to become more concentrated than its natural state. The primary health risk when dealing with NORM, is the potential for developing CANCER, as the ionizing radiation that it emits is a known CARCINOGEN.

A very important topic for those working in the mining, power and oil and gas industry

[actandlearn]

Very critical information about the safety of workers and employees working at various industrial sites

[legendsofthescientificrevo]

Very important topic.. must be shared to increase awareness

[eshaan]

Very important, subject for young engineers and graduates to do research project

[omarsalah]

Good video and important for all oilfield, mining workers

[ashaank]

Naturally occurring radioactive material is often overlooked.But prolonged exposure can give rise to different types of cancers

[lloydellet]

Very important video for all the folks working in the oil and gas industry !!

[lloydellet]

Very True.. so what are the exposure limits for a person ?

[lilystephens]

The hazards associated with NORM are inhalation and ingestion routes of entry as well as external exposure where there has been a significant accumulation of scales.. on equipment.

administrative control keep exposure within their limits . it's cost effective
