Abstract

The natural radionuclides 210Po, 210Pb and 226Ra activities in the marine sediment around Sultan Abdul Aziz Power Station, Kapar, Selangor were determined at twenty-one selected stations. The range activities of 210Po, 210Pb and 226Ra determined were from 0.949 dpm/g to 5.610 dpm/g, 0.089 dpm/g to 2.158 dpm/g and 0.06 dpm/g to 3.244 dpm/g, respectively, with activities patterns as 210Po > 210Pb > 226Ra. Generally, the level activity for stations located at the estuary, coastal line and outfall of effluent were high because those areas direct received input from the Power Station. The obtained level of 210Po, 210Pb and 226Ra were still safe for marine ecosystem.

Aktiviti radionuklid tabii iaitu 210Po, 210Pb dan 226Ra di dalam sedimen marin di sekitar stesen janakuasa Sultan Abdul Aziz Kapar Selangor telah diukur pada dua puluh satu stesen terpilih. Julat aktiviti 210Po, 210Pb dan 226Ra masing-masing adalah dari 0.949 dpm/g hingga 5.610 dpm/g, 0.089 dpm/g hingga 2.158 dpm/g dan 0.06 dpm/g hingga 3.244 dpm/g, dengan turutan aktivitinya 210Po > 210Pb > 226Ra. Pada umumnya, aras aktiviti bagi stesen yang terletak di muara, pinggir pantai dan kawasan buangan adalah tinggi kerana kawasan ini menerima input secara terus dari stesen janakuasa. Aras yang diperolehi bagi 210Po, 210Pb dan 226Ra adalah masih lagi selamat untuk marin ekosistem.
