Method of experimental research of oil containing waste with increased radioactivity as an object of ecological risk

In this paper the problems of negative impact of oil-containing waste with increased radioactivity to biosphere are considered. Review of the sources of increased radioactivity of oil-containing waste as a factor of negative impact to biosphere is carried out. Method of carrying out of experiment for determination of specific effective activity of natural radioactive nuclides is described. Suggested method is allowing us to establish the nature of the distribution of natural radioactive nuclides of oil-containing waste, to determine the coefficients of migration of radioactive nuclides and it dependence from the characteristic of oil-containing waste. Results of work are allowing us to carry out more efficient and high quality reduction of negative impact of oil-containing waste to the biosphere and to take timely and qualitative measures to reduce radioactive nuclides negative impact in oil-containing sludges as a factor of ecological risk.
