Determine on-site the radon concentration in water: sampling & on-line methods

Radon can dissolve and build up in water from underground sources. If water comes from a well, it may contain Radon. Radon in the water dissolves and escapes into the air during household water use, especially when it is heated. An easy-to-handle experimental setup for the on-site determination of the Radon concentration in water samples has been developed and tested. In contrast to laboratory ...

Matrix Gemini LIMS meets radiological testing challenges case study

The inherent configurability of the Matrix Gemini Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) has allowed the management of complex radiochemistry data at a radiological, environmental and ...

Forte Energy employs the Pylon AB-5R for cost effective Radon detection

Forte Energy (Perth) is exploring for uranium in the Sahara Desert of Mauritania with the aid of the Pylon AB-5R. It takes two days of travelling to get to the isolated project area. The principle techniques are airborne and ground gamma ...

Tritium Bubbler Collection System

Sample gas enters the instrument and flows through two (2) standard scintillation counter ready vials filled with ethylene glycol, which retain the HTO component. The sample gas, now less the tritiated water vapor, flows through a heated palladium sponge catalyst bed, which oxidizes the sample gas. The oxidized sample gas flows through two (2) more vials with ethylene glycol that retain the ...
