CONCENTRATION OF MIXED FISSION PRODUCTS FROM SEAWATER BY CHELEX 100

Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the feasibility of concentrating mixed fission products in seawater by ion-exchange. Chelex 100, a chelating resin, was found to be effective for the concentration of several gamma-emitting fission-product radionuclides from seawater. The effects of fission-product age, total seawater volume, and flow rate on adsorption were studied.
