A method for nuclide-specific determination of the aktivitaetskonzentration of the radionuclides contained in gasstroemen with the aid of the gamma spectroscopy

摘要

Method of determining the activity concentration of the radio nuclides in waste gases of nuclear power plants by bleeding a part of the gas stream, compressing it to a high superatmospheric pressure, passing the compressed gas into a high pressure chamber where the specific nuclides are measured by means of a calibrated Ge (Li) detector, and returning the gas from the chamber at reduced pressure to the gas stream. The activity concentration of the gas in the high-pressure vessel permits measurement of the specific nuclides, and also permits detection of waste gas activities which are below the customary detection limits.
