”ESTIMATION OF ROUTINE DISCHARGE OF RADIONUCLIDES ON POWER REACTOR EXPERIMENTAL RDE”, Urania Vol. 23 No. 1, Februari 2017: 1 - 68
The article in Urania Journal was made in January 2017 based on analytical data in unpublished research Technical reports of 2015 and as an internal report of the work unit.
Because it has not been published at the time of AIPBA 2016 article, it is referenced as a technical report (ref no 15) questioned by the reviewer because it is not a Journal.
Some explanations are detailed (at sourceterm calculations methodology sub) because based on unpublished technical report data. After the publication of the calculation of sourceterm/routine radionuclide discharge (article on Urania), there will be a redactional revision of sub sourceterm calculation with data referring to reference 15 (journal urania as a replacement of unpublished technical reports).
Sourceterm calculations (this paper) were performed using the same mechanisms as previous studies in Urania [15], but with the assumptions of a more pesisticistic release fraction (this paper).
Estimates of the impact of sourceterm discharges in the environment and public within a 5 km radius of the Serpong Nuclear Area/KNS are shown in this article.

”ESTIMATION OF ROUTINE DISCHARGE OF RADIONUCLIDES ON POWER REACTOR EXPERIMENTAL RDE”, Urania Vol. 23 No. 1, Februari 2017: 1 - 68
The article on Urania discusses how to calculate and
radionuclide mechanisms release from the RDE reactor core, coolant , containment, and discharge from the reactor chimney/stack.
This paper discusses the impact of radionuclide releases (doses) into the site
environments and their effects on existing radiation conditions in the KNS region.
This paper is a new article, as no one has ever written about discussing the effect of RDE operation on radiation safety conditions in Serpong Nuclear Area/KNS.
As is known in KNS has been operating RSG for 30 years, with the RDE will be built in the area of KNS then in this paper is estimated KNS conditions after the construction of RDE.
The radiation condition data obtained from this paper can be used as the basis for preparing the environmental monitoring and management plan
documents throughout the KNS
