Description
Shimaa Elgingihy and others checked radiation around an Egyptian power station in two thousand twenty-five. The fossil-fuel plant sits near homes and farmland. Burning fuel can concentrate natural radioactive elements. The team collected soil, water, and plant samples nearby. Sensitive detectors gauged several radioactive elements in each sample. Hazard indexes then summed the exposure risk.
Farm areas near the plant showed high levels. Some values passed global guideline limits. The pattern suggests long-term exposure risks nearby. Ecosystems face the same concern. The authors call for targeted monitoring and cleanup steps. Their data form a first baseline for the area.
