    Implementation of dose calculation methods for NORM by-products in building materials in the circular economy framework by Giuseppe La Verde, Giuseppe La Verde, Gaetano Gagliardo, Fabrizio Ambrosino, Fabrizio Ambrosino, Mariagabriella Pugliese, Mariagabriella Pugliese

    Published in Frontiers in Built Environment (2024-05-01)
    “…Introduction: Risk assessment of exposure to indoor pollutants plays an increasingly important role in human protection, and one of the main sources of indoor pollutants is building materials (BMs). In addition, production processes, including those related to BMs, are also involved in economic transition: the use of by-products from other industrial sectors as raw materials for the production processes in compliance with environmental sustainability is evaluated.Methods: In this work, we evaluate not only the radiation protection of BMs but also the possibility of adopting the circular economy principles. …”
