1 Scope

This document describes the methods for determination of gross alpha radioactivity concentrations, gross beta radioactivity concentrations, mass concentrations of uranium, and activity concentrations of 226Ra in drinking water and water sources.

This document is applicable to the determination of gross alpha radioactivity concentrations of alpha radionuclides (excluding volatile nuclides under the conditions specified in this document), gross beta radioactivity concentrations of beta radionuclides (excluding volatile nuclides under the conditions specified in this document), mass concentrations of uranium and activity concentrations of 226Ra in drinking water and water sources. This document may serve as a reference to the determination of gross alpha radioactivity, gross beta radioactivity, uranium and 226Ra in saline and mineralized water.

4 Gross alpha radioactivity

4.1 Detection method for low background gross alpha

4.1.1 Method and principle

Acidify the water sample, evaporate and concentrate it to convert it into sulfate, evaporate it until the sulfuric acid smokes, and burn it at 350°C. After transferring the residue to the sample tray to make the sample source, conduct immediately gross alpha measurement. Calculate the activity concentration of gross alpha radioactivity in water by measuring alpha standard source calibration. For this method, there are three measurement methods available: effective thickness method, comparison method and thick source method, see 4.1.8.1, 4.1.8.2 and 4.1.8.3 for details.

For this method, the detection limit depends on the amount of inorganic salts in water sample, counting efficiency of the instrument, background count rate, counting time and other factors, which is about 0.02Bq/L.

4.1.2 Reagents

Unless otherwise specified, the reagents shall all be analytically pure agents complying with the national standard, and the water for test shall be deionized water or distilled water. There shall be no significant difference between the radioactive background counts of all reagents and those of instruments.

4.1.2.1 Nitric acid (HNO3)

rho20=1.42g/mL, [omega(HNO3)=65%].

4.1.2.2 Nitric acid solution

measure 100mL of nitric acid and dilute it to 200mL.

4.1.2.3 Sulfuric acid (H2SO4)

rho20=1.84g/mL.

4.1.2.5

Anhydrous ethanol (CH3CH2OH).

4.1.2.6 Calcium sulfate (CaSO4)

guaranteed reagent. Some calcium salts may contain trace 226Ra and/or 210Pb, and it shall be verified that the calcium salts do not contain alpha radionuclides.
