Abstract
The radiation-chemical purification of water from petroleum products (diese l oil, motor oil, and residual fuel oil) was studied by gas chromatography- mass spectrometry. The removal of gamma -radiolysis products with molecular weights from 40 to 500 amu was examined. Organic compounds (toluene, ethyl benzene, xylenes, other alkylbenzenes, C-14-C-18 n-alkanes, naphthalene, me thylnaphthalenes, and tetralin) were virtually completely removed at a dose of similar to 25 kGy. An interpretation of the data was presented.
