Water quality - Radium 226 - Part 2 : test method using emanometry
ISO 13165-2:2014 specifies the determination of radium-226 (226Ra) activity concentration in all types of water by emanometry. The method specified is suitable for the determination of the soluble, suspended, and total 226Ra activity concentration in all types of water with soluble 226Ra activity concentrations greater than 0,02 Bq l−1. In water containing high activity concentrations of 228Th, interference from 220Rn decay products can lead to overestimation of measured levels.

Le présent document expose les principes et les difficultés de la détermination de l'activité du radium 226, dans tous types d'eaux par émanométrie. La méthode est applicable à tous les types d'eaux d'activités en 226Ra soluble supérieures à 0,02 Bq.L"1. Dans le cas d'eaux fortement chargées en 228Ra, l'interférence des descendants du 220Rn peut conduire à des résultats surestimés.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
