Abstract
The exhalation of 222 Rn from fly ash produced by coal-burning power stations has been measured and compared with that from different kinds of soil and from coal itself. It is found that the radon exhalation rate from fly ash is less than that from soil and coal, despite the fact that fly ash contains a higher concentration of uranium and its decay products (especially 226 Ra) than does typical soil, as measured spectrometrically.
