Description

An analytical technique for trace amount of fission products in spent PWR(Pressurized Water Reactor) fuels and DUPIC (Direct Use of Spent PWR Fuel in CANDU reactor) fuels has been established. Fission products(Sr, Ba,Cd, La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd and Y) were quantitatively recovered by anion exchange, tri n-butylphosphate (TBP) and di(2-ethylhexyl)phosporic acid (HDFHP) extraction chromatography. In practice, spent PWR fuels whose burnup were between 15,000∼35,000 MWd/MtU were analyzed with the relative standard deviation of less thane 5% using CP-AES/shielding system. In addition, spent PWR fuel with burnup of 35,139±1098 MWd/MtU and DUPIC sintered pellet(35,502 MWd/MtU) were analyzed and then the determination reliability of the established analytical technique was evaluated by standard addition method
