⚠️ Unexpected Radiation Sources in Daily Life: The Hidden Hazards You Need to Know
2024/10/04
Radiation Everywhere? Do You Know These Unexpected Sources in Daily Life?
Radiation is all around us, from the natural environment to man-made materials. Our lives are filled with minor radiation sources. But did you know? Some inferior steel can even contain radioactive materials, posing potential health risks! Today, we’ll reveal
common radiation sources in daily life
and show you how to choose
radiation-free, safe steel
to protect your health and safety.
☢
Radiation Sources You Encounter Daily
●
Natural Environmental Radiation
✔ From radioactive elements in the Earth's crust, like
Uranium (U), Thorium (Th), and Potassium-40 (K-40)
, naturally present in soil, rocks, and water.
✔ Radiation is stronger at higher altitudes. For example, during air travel, the body is exposed to higher levels of cosmic radiation.
●
Appliances and Medical Equipment
✔
Cell phones, Wi-Fi, microwaves
: These devices produce
non-ionizing radiation
, which has low energy and does not affect human cell structure.
✔
X-rays, CT scans
: Medical radiation is high-energy radiation, but with proper protection, the health impact is controllable.
●
Industrial and Building Material Radiation
✔
Granite, tiles, cement
: Some natural building materials contain
radioactive isotopes
, and long-term exposure may have an impact.
✔
Inferior steel
: Some recycled metal from unknown sources may be mixed with radioactive contaminants, such as
Cobalt-60 (Co-60)
, which can seriously affect health in severe cases.
➤
Why Might Inferior Steel Contain Radiation?
●
Unknown Recycled Sources
: Some scrap steel, not rigorously screened, may come from contaminated medical equipment or nuclear industry apparatus, leading to residual radiation.
●
Manufacturing Process Lacks Testing
: Steel mills that do not comply with international safety standards may not conduct radiation monitoring, failing to ensure the steel's safety.
●
Impacts Health and Safety
: Long-term exposure to radioactive steel can affect cell health and increase potential risks.
