Hematite Slag-Based Radiation Shielding Blocks
LocationIslamic Azad University, Isfahan
Completion date
Area1 m²

Project details
Radiation shielding blocks based on hematite slag have been developed with high radiation absorption capability. These blocks provide a green and economical solution by utilizing hematite slag as a sustainable raw material for radiation protection applications.
Design response
Environmental concerns caused by hematite slag waste and the high cost of conventional radiation-absorbing materials highlight the need for sustainable, cost-effective radiation shielding solutions.
Walls Constructed with Hematite Radiation Shielding Blocks
Application of hematite radiation shielding blocks in protective walls for hospitals and laboratories requiring radiation protection.
