Tritium in natural waters in the area of ispra (tritio in acque naturali della zona di ispra)
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:7072528
The nuclear reactor in Ispra is cooled by heavy water, a small amount of which finds its way into the environment of the Establishment; losses also occur by evaporation and as steam. Besides Lake Maggiore, there are three other lakes in the immediate vicinity of Ispra. An automatic low level liquid scintillation counter was used for radioactivity measurements. All the calculations were performed to obtain the condition of maximal sensitivity by optimization of the significant figure. The tritium concentration in surface water, rainfall and potable water reservoirs in the Ispra area was monitored in 1977, 1978 and 1979, and these measurements are presented.
