High quality water is a key factor in preventing the corrosion of the spent fuel stored in the pool. Leaching of radionuclides from the corroded fuel cladding may be prevented by an efficient water treatment and purification system. However, as a safety management policy, IPEN has adopted a water chemistry control which periodically monitors the levels of uranium (U) and silicon (Si) in the pool’s reactor, since IEA-R1 employs U3Si2-Al dispersion fuel. An analytical method was developed and validated for the determination of uranium and silicon by ICP OES. This work describes the validation process, in a context of quality assurance, including the parameters selectivity, linearity, quantification limit, precision and recovery.1-5openAccessvalidationpool type reactorsuraniumsiliconemission spectroscopyoptical systemsplasmaArtigo de periódico01201297510.1088/1742-6596/975/1/012012https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6462-4758https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2604-1225Sem Percentil16.00
