33、 15366-2:2016 (E) 4DIN EN ISO 15366-2:2016-07 1 ScopeThis part of ISO 15366 describes procedures to chemically separate and purify uranium and plutonium in dissolved solutions of irradiated light water reactor fuels and in samples of high active liquid waste of spent fuel reprocessing plants, prior
34、to their isotopic analysis by e.g. mass spectrometric method (see ISO 82991) or alpha spectrometry (see ISO 114832). This part of ISO 15366 describes a slightly different separation technique from ISO 15366-1, based on the same chemistry, using smaller columns, different support material and special
35、 purification steps, applicable to samples containing plutonium and uranium amounts in the nanogram range and below. The detection limits were found to be 500 pg plutonium and 500 pg uranium. Annex A describes the preparation of the columns and the column support materials.In comparison with ISO 153
36、66-1, as uranium and plutonium amounts are lowest, additional purification on an anion exchange resin is performed.2 Principle of the methodThe chemical separation of small plutonium and uranium amounts (500 pg) is also based on a column extraction chromatography using tri-n-octylphosphine-oxide (TO
37、PO) as extractant.34The necessary valency adjustment prior to the separation is done with iron(II) sulfate and sodium nitrite. The extraction process is performed in disposable mini-columns loaded with a polyethylene or silica gel powder coated with the TOPO. Plutonium(IV) and uranium(VI) in 3 moll1
38、nitric acid medium are selectively extracted into the TOPO while americium, the fission products and other interfering elements are not retained. Plutonium is eluted after reduction to the trivalent state with ascorbic acid5; uranium is eluted by an ammonium carbamate solution and finally purified f
39、rom ammonium salts by an ion exchange separation6or fuming by 14 moll1nitric acid.In order to ensure a favourable kinetics of chemical reactions the (gravity) column flow rates should not exceed 0,4 mlmin1.Parallel measurement of blank and/or control sample is recommended to verify the analysis.Blan
40、ks are run in parallel with the samples to verify the absence of significant external cross-contamination or cross-contamination between samples.Control samples prepared from certified or analysed materials are also prepared and separated along with the sample to verify that suitable valency adjustm
41、ent, isotopic equilibration and separation efficiency are achieved.The whole process is carried out under clean conditions preferably in a laminar flow fume hood.EN ISO 15366-2:2016 (E) 5DIN EN ISO 15366-2:2016-07 3 Apparatus3.1 Biological shielding, e.g. shielded glove box or fume cupboard, prefera
