Artigo IPEN-doc 25777 Gallium-67 citrate used as a tracer of acetone production routes2019 - MESQUITA, C.H. de; CALVO, W.A.P.; AOKI, P.E.; SILVA, V.C. da; HARAGUCHI, M.I.; VELO, A.F.; ALVAREZ, A.G.; HAMADA, M.M.In this work the pathway of the chemical product and the kinetics parameters were evaluated in a laboratory plant settled, using 0.4 GBq (10 mL) of 67Ga citrate as radiotracer and 18 NaI(Tl) radiation detectors. The AnaComp program was used to estimate the kinetic para ameters of the acetone production. The yield of the acetone production was estimated by the percentage ratio between the areas under the curve (AUC) of the curve profiles of the final product compartment divided by the concentration found inside the chemical reactor whose result was 87% yield during the first 30 minutes of reaction.Artigo IPEN-doc 24163 Gallium-67 citrate used as a tracer of acetone production routes2017 - MESQUITA, CARLOS H. de; CALVO, WILSON A.P.; AOKI, PEDRO E.; SILVA, VALDIR C. da; HARAGUCHI, MARCIO I.; VELO, ALEXANDRE F.; ALVAREZ, ALEXANDRE G.; PAIXAO, LETICIA B.; HAMADA, MARGARIDA M.In this work the pathway of the chemical product and the kinetics parameters were evaluated in a laboratory plant settled, using 40 GBq of 67Ga citrate as radiotracer and 18 NaI(Tl) radiation detectors. The AnaComp program was used to estimate the kinetic parameters of the acetone production. The yield of the acetone production was estimated by the percentage ratio between the areas under the curve (AUC) of the curve profiles of the final product compartment divided by the concentration found inside the chemical reactor whose result was 87% yield during the first 30 minutes of reaction.Resumo IPEN-doc 23061 Industrial applications of the IEA-R1 research reactor in Brazil2017 - GENEZINI, F.; CALVO, W.A.P.; FERNANDO, A.J.; MARRA NETO, A.; AOKI, P.E.The IEA-R1 is an open pool type research reactor located at theNuclear and Energy Research Institute (IPEN-CNEN/SP) site and achieved its first criticality on September 16, 1957. IEA-R1 is the largest research reactor in operation in Brazil, with a core composed of 24 fuel elements with 20% enriched uranium silicide, 4 control rods (AgInCd) and many irradiation positions supplying thermal neutron fluxes ranging from 1012 to 1014 n/cm2s. Currently, IEA-R1 is operating at 4:5 MW on an 8 hours per day and 4 days per week cycle. The IEA-R1 reactor is a multipurpose facility used for basic and applied research in nuclear and for the production of radioisotopes for industry and nuclear medicine. For industry, IEA-R1 produces radiotracers and sealed radioactive sources (60Co and 192Ir) for industrial -radiography, as well as doped silicon by neutron transmutation. For radiotracer production, IEA-R1 has been working with a compact local staff (3 persons) and is assisted by the Radiation Technology Centre at IPEN-CNEN/SP, in which there are installed hot cells for high activity handling. Most of the radiotracers produced at IEA-R1 are irradiated in a quartz bulb inside an aluminium vessel; the only exception is for 41Ar production, where a special device that doesn’t require a hot cell is used. These are the radiotracers produced at IEA-R1 and their applications in industry and environment: • 203Hg: determination of the mercury mass immobilized in electrolytic cells from soda and chlorine producing industries (46:6 days and 0:28 MeV). • 131I and 82Br: flow rate measurement and residence time distribution (RTD) studies in rivers, lakes and wastewater treatment plants (8:04 days and 36 h, 0:36 MeV and 0:55 MeV, respectively). • 192Ir: environmental studies, in the form of a premixed sand (glass powder plus activated iridium), to study drag sediment in river (73:8 days and 0:32 MeV). • 198Au: representative study, in real conditions, of the impact of great civil works for the construction of important artificial harbour, airport and hydroelectric reservoir, by labelling sand to be removed from the bottom with emulsion of gold (2:7 days and 0:41 MeV). • 41Ar and 79Kr: study the gas phase of fluidized cracking catalytic plants (110 min and 35 h, 1:29 MeV and 0:51 MeV, respectively). • 140La: study the solid phase (catalysts) of fluidized cracking catalytic plants in petroleum refineries (40 h, 1:16 MeV). For doped silicon production, a device that affords the best axial and radial uniformity of the neutron dose is used. These doping uniformities as well as the doping accuracy are determined using resistivity values, showing an excellent doping quality. A recent improvement was the development of an irradiation system to produce gaseous radioisotopes (41Ar and 79Kr), delivering the activated gases directly into the shield bottle without handling and dose exposition for operators, instead of via small quantities (batches), through quartz ampoules containing these noble gases.
