Abstract

Radon in potable water increases the absorbable dosage by digestive and respiratory systems. Radon concentration was in the range of 0.92–17.12 Bq L−1. The maximum total effective dose of lung and stomach was 168.11 µSv y−1 for adults. As much as 0.25% of the population in this area is exposed to high dose of radon. Therefore, aeration of potable water in these regions is recommended before consumption.
