Question 1: What kind of radiation does a power plant emit? Since there are many types of radiation, radiation with different frequencies and different intensities will have different reactions. At present, no one dares to say how low the radiation is to be safe.
And because everyone’s body’s resistance is different, everyone will have different levels of symptoms.
Generally, exposure to electromagnetic radiation pollution can cause headaches, insomnia, irregular heartbeat and other central nervous system problems.
At the same time, it may affect some people's eyes, causing vision loss, skin diseases, etc., and in severe cases, it may cause cancer.
Children and the elderly generally have worse resistance to radiation, so the harm to the elderly and children is greater.
At first I thought it was a psychological illusion, but later I found out it wasn't at all.
The statements that many people see that power plant radiation is harmless often include the following: 1. The radiation from power plants is no greater than that of mobile phones or even microwave ovens.
From the perspective of radiation loudness, this is also true, but is our microwave oven turned on 24 hours a day?
Are our cell phones full of calls 24 hours a day?
But we have been living in this environment for many years.
2. Since the harm of radiation from power plants is invisible, it is difficult for you to necessarily link your disease or symptoms to radiation. This does not mean that the radiation from power plants is not harmful. Think about it yourself.
Will I feel nothing if I use my mobile phone for more than 2 hours?
Many of the hazards are just that we have no way to prove them. Aren't the scientists who discovered the radioactive substances in the first place also died a lot of the substances they studied, but they only knew it too late.
2. What harm does electromagnetic radiation do to the human body?
According to relevant experts, its hazards mainly include six aspects.
One of the hazards It is very likely to be one of the causes of leukemia in children.
Medical research has proven that long-term exposure to high electromagnetic radiation will cause changes in blood, lymph and cell protoplasm.
After research, Italian experts believe that more than 400 children in the country suffer from leukemia every year. The main reason is that they are too close to high-voltage power lines and thus receive severe electromagnetic pollution.
Hazard No. 2: It can induce cancer and accelerate the proliferation of cancer cells in the human body.
Electromagnetic radiation pollution will affect the human body's circulatory system, immunity, reproduction and metabolic functions. In severe cases, it can also induce cancer and accelerate the proliferation of cancer cells in the human body.
Swiss research data points out that residents living in households with high-voltage lines passing by are 7.4 times more likely to develop breast cancer than ordinary people.
The results of sampling tests conducted by the Texas Cancer Medical Foundation on some patients who suffered electromagnetic radiation damage showed that the cancer cells of workers who work near high-voltage lines grow 24 times faster than those of ordinary people.
The third harm affects the human reproductive system, mainly manifested in the reduction of male sperm quality, spontaneous abortion and fetal malformations in pregnant women.
Hazard No. 4: It can lead to intellectual disability in children.
According to the latest survey, among the 20 million children born in my country every year, 350,000 are defective, of which 250,000 are mentally retarded. Some experts believe that electromagnetic radiation is also one of the influencing factors.
The World Health Organization believes that electromagnetic radiation from computers, televisions, and mobile phones has adverse effects on fetuses.
Hazard No. 5: It affects people's cardiovascular system, manifesting as palpitations, insomnia, menstrual disorders in some women, bradycardia, reduced cardiac blood volume, sinus arrhythmia, leukopenia, decreased immune function, etc.
If a patient with a pacemaker is in an environment with high electromagnetic radiation, the normal use of the pacemaker will be affected.
Hazard No. 6: It has a negative impact on people’s visual system.
Since the eyes are sensitive organs of the human body to electromagnetic radiation, excessive electromagnetic radiation pollution can cause vision loss, cataracts, etc.
High doses of electromagnetic radiation can also affect and destroy the original biological current and biological magnetic field of the human body, causing abnormalities in the original electromagnetic field in the human body.
It is worth noting that different people or the same person at different ages have different tolerances to electromagnetic radiation. The elderly, children, and pregnant women are among the groups that are sensitive to electromagnetic radiation.
The state has stipulated safe distances. Generally, if the distance is more than 15 meters, you will be fine. Don’t worry too much.
First of all, it is clear that the 50 Hz power frequency electromagnetic oscillation of high-voltage lines cannot produce radiation; only high-frequency oscillation can produce radiation.
Therefore, there is no need to worry about the effects of electromagnetic radiation.
However, high-voltage lines do generate power frequency electromagnetic fields.
High-voltage transmission lines adopt a three-phase system.
The sum of the three-phase voltages and currents is zero.
If the three phases are close enough, the electric and magnetic fields generated externally are zero.
But in fact, each phase of the transmission line is approximately... >> Question 2: Is there radiation near large substations?
Does it have a big impact on people?
According to relevant power facility protection regulations, for a 110 kV substation overhead transmission line, its protection area is 10 meters outside the line. In other words, as long as it is 10 meters away from the wire, the safety of electromagnetic radiation is
guaranteed.
For 220 kV and 500 kV power transmission and transformation system wires, the protection areas are 15 meters and 20 meters respectively.
