Role of CCD based DC-Arc emission spectrometer for the quality control of PFBR MOX fuel

  • 1. Advanced Fuel Fabrication Facility, Bhabha Atomic Research Centre, Tarapur (India)

Description

Present paper describes determination of 18 trace metallic impurities Al, B, Be, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, Pb, Si, Sn, W and Zn in PFBR, MOX fuel with 28% of PuO2 by CCD based DC-ARC AES using carrier distillation technique, Capacitatively coupled device, (CCD) based detectors gives the advantages of multi-element determination and the possibility of choosing additional alternative lines for the analytes. The method is validated by recovery in check standards. Rsd is achieved better than 16% and recoveries were in the range of 90-110%. (author)
