摘要
A new method for the determination of transuranium elements, Np, Pu and Am with extraction-liquid scintillation counting has been studied systematically. Procedures for the separation of Pu and Am by HDEHP-TRPO extraction and for the separation of Np by TTA-TiOA extraction have been developed, by which the recovery of Np, Pu and Am is 97%, 99% and 99%, respectively, and the decontamination factors for the major fission products (Sr-90, Cs-137 etc.) are 10(4)-10(6). Pulse shape discrimination (PSD) technique has been introduced to liquid scintillation counting, by which the counting efficiency of alpha-activity is > 99% and the rejection of beta-counts is > 99.95%. This new method, combining extraction and pulse shape discrimination with liquid scintillation technique, has been successfully applied to the assay of Np, Pu and Am in high level radioactive waste.
