Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for measuring the tritium activity of a waste drum radioactive.
- Tritium is a radionuclide present in radioactive waste. It is an unstable isotope of hydrogen. Its disintegration into 3 helium is accompanied by the emission of a particle ⁇ with a negative charge which corresponds to an electron. The pathways of these ⁇ particles are extremely reduced. They do not exceed 6 ⁇ m in water and 5.7 mm in air. This property excludes any possibility of detection of tritium radiation through drum walls or in solid or liquid waste.
- Tritium is also present in organic solid waste, for example poly (ethylene / vinyl acetate) or EVA or poly (vinyl chloride) or PCV, from overboots, gloves, variable regulator, etc ...
- organic solid waste for example poly (ethylene / vinyl acetate) or EVA or poly (vinyl chloride) or PCV.
- EVA poly (ethylene / vinyl acetate)
- poly (vinyl chloride) or PCV from overboots, gloves, controlgants, etc ...
- the diversity of nature of this waste reinforces the difficulty of characterization.
- Experience shows a strong heterogeneity of activity distribution. When all these types of products are mixed, the representativeness of a few grams of samples is very random. However, a sample burner (weighing from 0.1 to 1 g) under an oxygen stream allows to estimate the activity of some samples to levels of some Bq / g.
- Tritiated waste with little contamination is very difficult to characterize, especially organic waste each sample is marked by a very high degree of uncertainty important as to its representativeness.
- the problem can be solved by homogenizing waste by grinding. The lack of sensitivity of the calorimetry does not allow it to be used. Point analytical checks an important gap remains. The solution is to achieve control overall, non-destructive and without generating waste.
- the principle adopted is to measure the amount of helium 3 resulting from the decay of tritium from a sample of the gaseous atmosphere surrounding the waste. This amount of helium formed is proportional to the tritium activity present.
- waste with an activity of 10 9 Bq (0.027 Ci) causes in one year a release of 3 helium leading to a concentration of 0.0055 ppm of this gas in a volume of 200 liters.
- Tritium is radioactive ⁇ - . it disintegrates by giving 3 helium, an electron and an antineutrino according to the reaction: T ⁇ 3 He + e - + ⁇
- the subject of the invention is therefore a method for measuring the tritium activity of a radioactive waste drum containing a quantity of radioactive waste and a free volume, consisting in measuring the amount of 3 He produced by the disintegration of the tritium contained in it. in said radioactive waste for a determined period of time and to deduce therefrom the corresponding activity of the tritium contained in said radioactive waste.
- the amount of 3 He produced can advantageously be evaluated by a leak detector.
- the tritiated waste contained in the bags behave globally as a single source of 3 helium which discharges into the free volume of the drum.
- the partial pressure of the gas present is a function of the 3 helium flow rate of the tritium source (thus the activity), the free volume and the tightness of the barrel (a part of the gas created is escaping from it), the confinement time.
- the measurement can be carried out in three phases: calibration and measurement of the concentration of helium 3, measurement of the free volume in the barrel, measuring the tightness of the drum.
- step a parasitic gases are removed from the sample taken before evaluating the amount of 3 He.
- said evaluation may comprise the comparison of the sample taken with a gas at the same pressure and known 3 He concentration.
- the operation b) can be carried out by injecting a known amount of 4 He into the drum, then measuring the partial pressure of 4 He in the drum, and finally by determining the free volume of said drum from the known amount of 4 He and the measurement of the partial pressure of 4 He.
- This 4 He partial pressure measurement can be obtained by taking a sample of the gas contained in the drum and evaluating the amount of 4 He contained in this sample by a leak detector.
- the operation c) can be carried out by injecting a known quantity of 4 He into the drum, then by measuring a first time the partial pressure of 4 He in the drum, then, after a determined duration with respect to said first time , by measuring a second time the partial pressure of 4 He in the drum, the leakage rate of the drum being calculated from these values of partial pressure of 4 He and of the determined duration between these partial pressure measurements.
- the measurement of the said quantity of 3 He produced can simply be obtained by placing the barrel in a chamber designed to collect the 3 He fleeing the barrel and evaluating this amount of 3 He by the leak detector.
- the attached figure shows a closed barrel 1 by a lid 6 and containing radioactive waste 2 arranged in PVC bags and leaving a free volume 3 in the drum.
- Reference 4 designates a leak detector provided with a spectrometer of mass.
- a test-tube 5, with a capacity of about 2 liters, allows to take a sample of gas in the free volume 3 of the barrel, through the lid 6.
- the signal delivered by a leak detector depends, among other things, on the value of the gas flow tracer and tracer gas pressure being in upstream of this leak.
- the 3 He concentration of the test specimens is deduced after calibration under the same conditions of specimens with a known 3 He concentration.
- the 3 He concentration of the sample specimens is low, of the order of one part per trillion. However, after the elimination of the gases other than 3 He, 4 He and Ne of the test piece by means of an activated carbon trap, a pressure of the order of 10 millibars can be reached in the test specimen. Under these conditions, the concentration of 3 He in the test tube is multiplied by a factor of 100.
- the sampling specimen 5 disconnected from the barrel 1 and connected to an activated carbon trap 7 soaked in liquid nitrogen. After the trap 7 has exerted its action by attracting gases other than 3 He, 4 He and Ne, the test piece 5 is connected to the leak detector via a micrometer valve 8. The sample to be tested is is then placed upstream of the calibrated leak of the detector 4.
- the calibration is performed by replacing the sample gas by a gas at the same pressure and of known 3 He concentration.
- a calculation program makes it possible to obtain the value of the flow rate of the source 3 He as a function of the concentration in 3 He, the free volume, the tightness of the drum and the duration of confinement of the waste.
- the tritium activity is deduced from the value of the flow rate of the 3 He source.
- the partial pressure of 3 He inside the drum is such that the system stabilizes.
- the apparent leak of the barrel (the 3 He coming out of the barrel) is equal to the flow of the tritium source (the 3 He that is created). Under these conditions, sampling in the drum is no longer necessary. It is sufficient to measure the apparent leakage of the drum to know its tritium activity. This measurement can be done by placing for about 20 hours the barrel of 200 liters in a slightly larger enclosure, to limit the dead volume to about twenty liters, and measuring as previously the concentration of 3 He.
- this method was used to measure the tritium activity of two steel containers containing a tritium source (consisting of 0.1 liter of tritiated water) and having a free volume of 12.7 liters. .
- the activities of the sources enclosed in these containers were 0.455.10 9 Bq (12.3 mCi) for the first container and 4.55.10 9 Bq (123 mCi) for the second container.
- the ambient gas contained in these containers was analyzed at regular time intervals in accordance with the process of the present invention.
