Abstract
Potential health hazards are associated with continued use of 222Rn rich water for drinking. Since high concentrations of 222Rn frequently occur in some well waters, it becomes important to analyze well waters that may be used for drinking, for its 222Rn concentrations. In view of the large number of water samples that may need to be analyzed and because of the relatively short half life of 222Rn, a rapid and sensitive counting method for measuring 222Rn in well waters should be useful. Such a method was achieved by optimization of some of the scintillation counting parameters including, type of fluor used, water/fluor ratio and width of the counting window used.
