Radiochemical Characterizations - Lab Support
Radiochemical Characterizations - Lab Support Kinectrics’ Analytical and Environmental Services Laboratory (AESL) has conducted radiochemical characterization of many sample media including water, resin, sludge, filters, mixed waste, oils, smears, construction materials, etc. from nuclear facilities. In performing the radiochemical analyses, a number of different characterization methods have been employed, depending on the analytes of interest: Gamma spectrometry Alpha spectrometry Gross alpha / beta analysis by gas proportional counter Liquid Scintillation Analysis Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) Kinectrics' AESL provides complete characterization of samples from elemental compositions (U, Th by ICP-MS) to complete radiochemical characteristics - alpha, beta and ga
