AbstractAbstract
[en] Radiometric analysis at Centro Tecnologico do Exercito, CTEx, have been performed since 1980s, to be applied in the course of pre-operational and operational stages of a subcritical nuclear assembly which was set up into the extinct Instituto de Pesquisas Especiais, IPE. In that time, monitoring, that were based in analytical techniques of gamma spectrometry and total alpha/beta counting, were performed. Nowadays, the aptness of identify radiological and nuclear agents in environmental samples is a deficiency of Division of Defesa Quimica, Biologica e Nuclear, DDQBN, which is legatee of IPE nuclear duty. With the implementation of Laboratorio de Identificacao de Agentes Radiologicos, LIAR, the obsolescence of DDQBN equipment is been solved by the acquisition of modern spectroscopy systems which are supposed able to analyze CTEx environmental matrix samples, according to specific CNEN standard, as well as to perform works that concern diverse activities on civil defense, security, scientific advisory, research, and foreign trade areas. So, this work describes the implementation of LIAR at DDQBN of CTEx and analyses perspectives of its use. Basic functionality, stage of implementation, systems and analytical techniques are described. Finally, the work considers the importance and the foreseen outcomes of LIAR implementation on scientific, technological, economic, social and environmental areas. (author)
