Abstract
Determinations of radioactivity and stable element contents in outlet waters taken from dams (Çamlıdere, Kurtboğazı, Kesikköprü, Çubuk-2) and drinking waters from water treatment plants (İvedik, Pursaklar and Çubuk) of Ankara Water and Sewerage Administration (ASKİ) were performed by using MPC-9604 multi-detector alpha/beta (α/β) counting system, inductively coupled plasma–mass–mass spectrometer and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer. Gross alpha and beta activity levels and element concentrations found in samples were compared with maximum permissible values given by World Health Organization, United State Environmental Protection Agency, Turkish Standards and Türkiye Regulation on Water for Human Consumption.
