Zr precipitation kinetics in irradiated fuel dissolution solution by TIMS and ICP-MS: a combined study

Abstract

This study presents the combined analysis of leftover zirconium in irradiated fuel dissolution solution through time. Thermo-ionisation mass spectrometry was used to analyse the kinetics start and final aliquots with uncertainties lower than 3%, while inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used for intermediary aliquots. In order to obtain low uncertainties using ICP-MS, dissolution solutions were spiked with lutetium, used as a process tracer, in order to perform a relative analysis. The analytical parameters were optimised and uncertainties were lower than 3% for real nuclear samples. This method shows the input of ICP-MS for concentration evolutions determination.
