| heal.abstract | An improved spectrometric method to determine the Ra-226 activity in aqueous solutions is described. The method involves two stages, a preconcentration stage of Ra-226 sorption onto a thin manganese layer and a measurement stage using alpha-spectrometry. Manganese oxide thin films were prepared and characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyses. The thin films were found to follow the XRD patterns and chemical formula of the K-bimessite layered exchanger. The preconcentration of radium was studied relative to the initial radium concentration, pH and salt concentrations. The preconcentration kinetics was studied as a function of manganese surface, solution volume and salt concentration. Extensive Monte Carlo calculations were performed to optimise the detection of alpha-particles. In this way, the thin film preparation procedure as well as the radium sorption and the measurement conditions were optimised and detection limits lower than 0.5 mBq L-1 were obtained for 2 d of procedure completion. The method was validated with IAEA standards and it was applied for the determination of Ra-226 in bottled waters and also wastewaters from the major thermoelectric plant in Greece. Moreover, the Ra-226 distribution coefficients (K-d) of two differently prepared powder manganese oxides, a crystalline silicotitanate and an aluminium-pillared montmorillonite were determined by gamma-spectrometry. Ra-226 sorption experiments on silicotitanate thin films were performed and improvements in resolution and reduction of exposure time were observed. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. | en |
