A simultaneous direct spectrophotometric method for the determination
of barium and strontium using Sulfonazo III has been developed
making use of the chelons EGTA and CDTA at controlled pH
values.
An absorbance study of the barium and strontium complexes of
Sulfonazo III revealed that there is no pH sensitivity of...
Iodine-129 is a key risk driver at sites where nuclear materials have been fabricated or processed, and it is a predominant isotope of concern in long-term waste storage strategies. I-129 exists primarily as iodate in the subsurface at the Hanford Site in south-central Washington State. Between 15 and 40% of...
