"Liao Bin, what should we do if there is a pile of radioactive material on the ground?" Su Jing asked the young man. She just looked at his information and realized that he looked young, but he was actually already a master's degree.

"Currently there is no way to completely eliminate nuclear radiation. We can only wait for the half-life of the radioactive material. Some half-lives are decades, some are thousands or even tens of thousands of years. So the best way is to remove all radioactive materials. Get it up, then send it to the treatment plant for glass solidification, and then bury it deep in the nuclear waste disposal warehouse." Liao Bin paused slightly, and then said, "Of course, these are divided into high radioactive materials and medium and low radioactive materials. Medium and low radioactive materials are harmful. Low; high radioactive materials contain a variety of substances that are extremely harmful to the human body. For example, only 10 milligrams of plutonium can kill people. Therefore, various nuclear waste disposal methods are different. Domestic processing of medium and low radioactive nuclear waste , processed in accordance with national standards and the requirements of the International Atomic Energy Agency. Whether it is solid nuclear waste or liquid nuclear waste, it must be solidified and then placed in a 200-liter stainless steel barrel and placed in a shallow-surface repository. Highly radioactive nuclear waste Radioactive material must be stored in a special repository hundreds of meters underground. Due to the high risk of nuclear radioactive material, once the site of the repository is improperly selected, irreparable losses will be caused. Therefore, the site selection of the nuclear radioactive material repository must be Be very careful and need to comprehensively consider factors such as the economic development layout of the entire country, population distribution, transportation facilities, geological, hydrological and climatic conditions of the candidate sites. Generally speaking, nuclear waste repositories in various countries around the world are built in economically backward and sparsely populated areas. area."

Liao Bin seemed to think that Su Jing, as the boss, was testing him, so he gave extremely detailed answers. However, some of the processing methods mentioned made it impossible for Su Jing to start, such as glass solidification and special disposal repositories stored hundreds of meters underground. What should Su Jing do? This is simply asking one question, which leads to countless problems.

"As an ordinary person, how should we deal with it without such equipment?" Su Jing asked.

"The only option is to report it to the state or call the police." Liao Bin shrugged.

"What if you don't want to report it and mobilize troops?" Su Jing continued to ask.

"That's it." Liao Bin thought for a while and then said, "The only way is to pretend it first, and then ask someone to find a connection and send it to be disposed of as nuclear waste. Of course, ordinary people cannot have such a connection."

Su Jing was moved in her heart, thinking that this method might be feasible. The nuclear radiation materials were all in the garbage dump. Of course, they could not be reported. They had to deal with them themselves. After the materials were collected, they would be sent for further processing. As for nuclear waste treatment plants and the like, he doesn't know anyone now, so he can only find another way.

"By the way, if an item is contaminated with nuclear radiation but is still useful, can it be removed?" Su Jing asked again.

"If the radiation is not contaminated inside, but only the surface layer, most of it can be removed by scrubbing, but it is generally difficult to clean it completely. Let me give you a nuclear radiation detector. With simple operations, it can Radiation can be detected, and you can take care of it yourself, as long as the radiation dose rate is lower than the safe value," Liao Bin said.

Next, Su Jing asked various questions in order to be fully prepared. Liao Bin obviously understood very well and explained them to Su Jing one by one. Thanks to Su Jing's strong memory, he basically remembered everything in his mind. Liao Bin was secretly shocked. He originally thought that Su Jing was just listening casually, but he didn't expect that Su Jing remembered everything. When he talked about it later, Su Jing seemed to understand it as well as him.

"Help me build some 200-liter stainless steel barrels and start production now. I will call you back later and tell you how much I will produce." After the protective clothing was ready, Su Jing said to Jiang Ji.

"Okay." Jiang Ji has a submissive attitude towards this willful boss. Even if he privately produced 50 million worth of titanium alloy plates last time, he still had money to turn around. What else can you say? Moreover, the materials he brought could bring research breakthroughs and huge profits to the institute, so he had the qualifications to be willful.

Su Jing then took the protective clothing back home in a truck, and carried more than 300 kilograms of protective clothing and a nuclear radiation detector directly to the second floor. The reason why she didn't enter through the door on the first floor was because the door was too big and would burst into flames as soon as it was opened. There will be too much gray layer and too much radiation. Of course, even thick titanium alloy plates and walls may not be able to block all radiation, and it is still not advisable to leave garbage inside for too long.

Su Jing connected the faucet with a water pipe, opened the door to the stairway leading to the first floor a little, and then turned on the water and sprinkled it down. It had been some time since the garbage had fallen. The dust layer inside was much smaller, and it fell when it was sprinkled with water. Go down.

Su Jing threw the water pipe down, and then used her mental power to control the water pipe. Starting from the top of the stairs, from top to bottom, it gradually spread all over the first floor, washing all the dust to the ground, and washing the roof and walls clean. The ground was also wetted to prevent the dust from flying up again.

Su Jing took out the nuclear radiation detector and stretched it out to detect. The detection result was 0.1 microsievert per hour, which was only one-tenth of the gray layer. It seemed that the gray layer was washed down, and the ash in the upper air Radiation is still low.

But for the sake of caution, Su Jing still put on a gas mask and protective clothing. She also used storage bags to fill a lot of water, and let some pets guard the gates and stairs, and some pets were put into spirit animals. Bag, then went down to the first floor, and closed the stair door after going down. The further down you go, the higher the data from the nuclear radiation detector becomes. By the time it reaches the ground, it has reached 2 microsieverts per hour.

Su Jing walked towards the Bagua Stone in the middle. The closer she got, the higher the nuclear radiation dose rate, and the detector data never stopped growing. When we were about to arrive, suddenly a long black thing stretched out from the edge of the Bagua Stone. It looked a bit like a giant earthworm, and it was sticky and disgusting.

At the same time, Su Jing felt a slight tingling in her brain, as if something had penetrated into her brain. The cats and dogs at the stairs and at the gate suddenly screamed and jumped up and down, as if they were being attacked.

"what?"

Su Jing's face changed slightly, her spirit condensed, and the slight tingling feeling in her mind disappeared immediately. She released her mental power and shot at the "giant earthworm". It seemed to be launching a mental attack just now, but for the mental attack, Su Jing He still has some confidence, which is his biggest reliance.

At this moment, the "giant earthworm" continued to poke out, then several more, and then a black shadow emerged. Su Jing discovered that it was not an earthworm, but a tentacle. Looking at the tentacles on the back of the The monster made Su Jing’s eyes widen.
