XII REGIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE "TECHNOGENIC SYSTEMS AND ENVIRONMENTAL RISK"

BOT: 10.7868/80869803115040104

Since 2004, the Obninsk Institute of Atomic Energy (Obninsk) annually hosts Regional Scientific Conferences "Technogenic Systems and Ecological Risk". The next 12th conference was held on April 23-24, 2015. The Obninsk Institute of Atomic Energy is currently the largest branch of the National Research Nuclear University "MEPhI" and traditionally acts as the base university for the State Corporation "Rosatom", carrying out specialized training of young specialists for nuclear energy and related fields, including radiation ecology and biology, radionuclide medicine, chemistry, physics and mechanics of materials. Therefore, the main participants of the conference are young scientists, teachers and senior students from Obninsk, large scientific centers and universities of the European part of Russia, as well as neighboring countries (Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan).

In the words of welcome addressed to the participants of the conference by the Director of IATE NRNU MEPhI N.G. Airapetova, Chairman of the Program Committee, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences R.M. Aleksakhin, Chairman of the Kaluga Regional Branch of the Russian Academy of Natural Sciences, Professor A.I. Trofimov, representatives of the organizing committee of the conference, an appeal was made to young people to actively participate in solving important scientific problems that currently stand in the field of nuclear energy development, assessment and prevention of adverse effects of man-made human activities, minimization of man-made risks, including radiation accidents.

The theme of the plenary session, which started the work of the conference, was devoted to issues closely related to the fundamental and practical aspects of radioecology and radiation safety. The current state of the system of state monitoring of the environment was covered in his report by the director of the Institute for Environmental Monitoring Problems of the NPO "Typhoon" V.G. Bulgakov, who spoke about the work on the creation of an integrated system of integrated observations, the modernization of the observational network of Roshydromet deployed in recent years, the radiation monitoring system and the radiation situation in Russia, including the activities of Roshydromet in the period after the Fukushima accident. The problematic report was presented by I.I. Kryshev (NPO "Typhoon"), who touched upon the historical aspects of the formation of methodological principles of radiation safety and the role of the individual in the history of science, spoke about modern views on radiation protection of the environment, the latest international documents and developments of Russian scientists, presented unique data on the practical application of radioecological models to assess the radiation impact on biota in the areas where nuclear facilities are located. Plenary speeches determined the scientific

nye, production, organizational guidelines for assessing and forecasting the state of the environment, standardization and minimization of man-made impacts and risks.

In 2015, the conference brought together about 100 participants, 80 requests for speeches were received, 40 reports were delivered. The topics of the conference covered a wide range of issues in the field of ensuring the ecological safety of the biosphere, united in six sections: Nuclear and thermal energy, modern environmental technologies; Problems of waste disposal, storage of radioactive waste; Technogenic and environmental risks; Biotesting and bioindication of environmental objects; Environmental and pharmaceutical chemistry; Ecological aspects of the action of non-ionizing and ionizing radiation. The breakout sessions were mainly attended by young participants, their work, as a rule, reflects the search areas that are currently being implemented in leading research teams in Russia and neighboring countries. Although the declared topics of the conference are very broad and include many aspects related to the study of technogenic factors in the human environment, a significant part of the materials presented at these conferences traditionally concerns issues of radiation ecology and radiobiology.

The problems of monitoring studies, voiced at the opening of the conference, were continued by the report of N.V. Ageeva (NPO "Typhoon"), which presented data on the dynamics of the content of radioactive strontium in the surface waters of Russia on the example of rivers flowing through the background and polluted territory (URTS), and studied the effect of the water regime of the territory on the removal of the radionuclide into surface waters.

One of the main problems of nuclear power is the safe management of radioactive waste. Currently, many near-surface repositories created 50-60 years ago do not fully comply with radiation safety requirements. The results obtained in long-term studies, which are carried out by employees of the departments of ecology and biology of the IATE, NRNU MEPhI, in the zone of influence of the regional radioactive waste storage facility in Obninsk, were discussed. It is shown that the specific active

the content of C8 in soils varies widely from 3 to 22 Bq/kg; at two sampling points, an excess of the background value was observed; the main part of the radionuclide (67%) is in a strongly bound form. During biotesting of water samples from the control wells of the radioactive waste storage containing elevated concentrations of 90$g, a change in biochemical parameters (activities of superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxidase and shikimate dehydrogenase) was revealed in all test objects (watercress, planaria, daphnia).

XII REGIONAL SCIENTIFIC CONFERENCE

VNIIRAE, FMBTS im. A.I. Burnazyan and IATE NRNU MEPhI studied the state of the territory of the industrial site and the sanitary protection zone of the Far East Center for RW Management; when assessing the phytotoxicity of soils, it was shown that the morphological and physiological parameters of the test object (watercress) had a direct correlation with the level of soil contamination with technogenic radionuclides.

A number of papers present assessments of the impact of nuclear fuel cycle enterprises or radioactive contamination as a result of radiation accidents on the environment. K.V. Lunevoy (NPO "Typhoon"). The consequences of chronic irradiation of biota have been studied by VNIIRAE specialists for many years using the example of pine populations in the Bryansk region, contaminated as a result of the Chernobyl accident. Young researchers presented the latest data on the levels of cytogenetic effects and reproductive capacity in Scotch pine populations growing in contaminated areas, and showed that, against the background of an increase in the frequency of mutation events in the G6PD isoenzyme loci with an increase in the absorbed dose, the enzymatic activity in the seeds does not change, which suggests the leveling of the consequences of irradiation at higher levels of biological organization.

Reducing the impact of NFC facilities on humans and the natural environment is an important task of radiation protection of the population and the environment. To solve one of the key issues - reducing radioactive iodine emissions at nuclear power plants - M.A. Alekseeva (Obninsk Center for Science and Technology) suggested using microwave processing of vegetable raw materials to obtain hydrocarbon adsorbents. Testing samples of sorbents based on peat showed that the efficiency of purification by radioactive iodine increases from 89 to 95.8% when the sorbent is impregnated with a complex compound based on silver nitrate and potassium iodide. Another aspect of reducing the impact on the environment - optimization of the methodology for developing standards for permissible discharges - was presented by the Department of Environmental Protection of Smolensk NPP.

Scientific research in the field of radiobiology concerned the study of the characteristics of densely ionizing radiation, the stimulating effects of y-radiation, and the radiobiology of non-ionizing radiation.

On the basis of the Medical Radiological Research Center (Obninsk), the regularities of the late formation of colonies by irradiated yeast cells were studied depending on the quality of the radiation; It has been shown that the biological efficiency of densely ionizing radiation (α-particles) is 4 times higher than that of rare-ionizing y-radiation.

As part of the development of radiation technologies for agriculture, VNIIRAE is working on studying the biochemical mechanisms of the formation of stimulating effects during presowing irradiation of crops. Data were presented on the dependence of the activity of pyruvate kinase and peroxidase enzymes in barley seedlings on the dose of acute y-irradiation of seeds. The inhibitory effect of high doses of radiation on growth rates and the concentration of chlorophyll A was shown in a similar series of experiments on the study of biochemical

of the biological and morphological characteristics of barley seedlings after y-irradiation of seeds at doses of 0.1-100 Gy, implemented at the Department of Biology of the Institute of Aerospace Engineering, National Research Nuclear University MEPhI.

The study of the effect of electromagnetic fields on biological objects is also being developed at IATE NRNU MEPhI. The results of the work were presented, indicating the effect of low-intensity EMR in the range of mobile communication frequencies on biochemical processes and reproductive functions in Daphnia. An unfavorable effect of RF EMF on the state of the reproductive system of male rats was found during subacute exposure in the frequency range of the DECT standard (Research Institute of Occupational Medicine, Moscow). The results of studying the combined effect of ionizing (X-ray) and non-ionizing (infrared) radiation on the offspring of mice according to the tests "radiosensitivity" and "adaptive response in the bone marrow, lymphoid organs and whole blood" were presented by A.R. Dyukin (ITEB, Pushchino).
