    Application of the fundamental parameter method to the assessment of major and trace elements in soil and sediments from Osamu Utsumi uranium mine by WDXRF
    2019 - GUILHEN, SABINE N.; COTRIM, MARYCEL E.B.; SAKATA, SOLANGE K.; SCAPIN, MARCOS A.
    Wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (WDXRF) is a suitable technique for the characterization of contaminated mining sites, providing a quick and reliable screening for areas of significant contamination. This study established and validated a non-destructive methodology for quantitative simultaneous determination of major and minor constituents in soil and sediments by WDXRF, which was further applied to quantify soil and sediment samples from Osamu Utsumi uranium mine (Caldas, Minas Gerais, Brazil). Elements such as Ce, La, Nd, Mn and U were found in more concentrated levels in the calcium diuranate deposit (DUCA), whereas Fe and Al were found at higher levels in the soil samples corresponding to sites where accentuated leaching processes have occurred. Comparatively, the levels of U and rare-earth elements were found in significantly higher levels in the sediments retrieved from the mine’s pit as a result of acid mine drainage. These findings are believed to be useful as an initial environmental assessment for the decommissioning process of the mine.

    Application of bias correction methods to improve U3Si2 sample preparation for quantitative analysis by WDXRF
    2019 - SCAPIN, M.A.; GUILHEN, S.N.; AZEVEDO, L.C.; COTRIN, M.E.B.; PIRES, M.A.F.
    The determination of silicon (Si), total uranium (U) and impurities in uranium-silicide (U3Si2) samples by wavelength dispersion X-ray fluorescence technique (WDXRF) has been already validated and is currently implemented at IPEN’s X-Ray Fluorescence Laboratory (IPEN-CNEN/SP) in São Paulo, Brazil. Sample preparation requires the use of approx-imately 3 g of H3BO3 as sample holder and 1.8 g of U3Si2. However, because boron is a neutron absorber, this proce-dure precludes the recovery of U3Si2 from the samples, preventing its use as nuclear fuel. Consequently, a significant amount of uranium is wasted in this process. An estimated average of 15 samples per month is expected to be analyzed by WDXRF, resulting in approx. 320 g of U3Si2 that wouldn’t return to the nuclear fuel cycle. The purpose of this paper is to present a new preparation method, replacing H3BO3 by cellulose acetate {[C6H7O2(OH)3-m(OOCCH3)m], m = 0~3}, thus enabling the recovery of the boron-free U3Si2 from the samples. The results demonstrate that the suggested sample preparation approach is statistically satisfactory, allowing the optimization of the procedure.
