Resumo
Environmental swipe sampling for safeguards purposes has been used by International Atomic Energy Agency since 1996 and is a powerful tool to detect undeclared materials and activities in States under safeguards agreements. The Secondary Electron Microscope with Energy-Dispersive X-Ray analyzing system (SEM-EDX) can be particularly useful in the initial identification of uranium in swipe samples and might be appropriate to identify and characterize uranium particles This work describes the use of SEM-EDX, as an initial screening technique, in real-life swipe samples for identifying and characterizing uranium particles. The swipe samples were collected in a conversion plant at the Nuclear and Energy Research Institute – IPEN/CNEN, São Paulo, Brazil
