DETERMINATION OF PLUTONIUM-239,240 IN ENVIRONMENTAL-SAMPLES FROM SURROUNDINGS OF THE ATOMIC POWER-STATION JASLOVSKE-BOHUNICE - DETERMINATION OF PLUTONIUM IN MANIVIER AND DUDVAH RIVER
L. Matel et al., DETERMINATION OF PLUTONIUM-239,240 IN ENVIRONMENTAL-SAMPLES FROM SURROUNDINGS OF THE ATOMIC POWER-STATION JASLOVSKE-BOHUNICE - DETERMINATION OF PLUTONIUM IN MANIVIER AND DUDVAH RIVER, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 183(1), 1994, pp. 167-170
Specific activity of Pu-239,240 in contaminated soils from the bank of
Manivier channel was determined to be in the range of 5-40 Bq . kg-1
and for soils from the bank of Dudvah river 0.6-8 Bq . kg-1. The ratio
of Pu-239,240/Cs-137 found in the samples is about 1.10(-4), which is
very close to the ratio found in the pulp of high activity concentrat
e in the collecting tank of nuclear power plants (NPP).
