Description

We developed an automatic Cs-uptake device for concentrating the dilute radioactive cesium (r-Cs) in environmental water, especially paddy fields water. The device was set onto paddy fields and the r-Cs in more than 400 L of water in 24 hours was automatically concentrated in the small columns without external power supply. With this device, 0.01 Bq/L of r-Cs concentration can be evaluated by the r-Cs measurement of the columns. (author)
