Abstract:Development of 3H, 14C, 41Ca, 55Fe and 63Ni radiochemical analysis methods were carried out independently by two laboratories using both inactivate and activated concrete samples. Two preliminary radioanalytical procedures for the non-volatile radionuclides (41Ca, 55Fe, 63Ni) and one Thermal oxidation method for the volatile radionuclides (3H, 14C) were developed. The difficulties in the method development and analysis of results are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
