Tritium and carbon-14 activity in gaseous effluents and gas discharges of nuclear installations - Part 1 : sampling of tritium and carbon-14

This document presents the methods and provisions for sampling tritium and carbon‑14 in the gaseous effluents generated by nuclear facilities during operation and decommissioning. Specifically included are sample withdrawal location, extraction, transport flow measurement, and collection for later analysis.This document doesn’t address to real time measurements of tritium activity and carbon-14 activity in the effluent air of stacks and ducts. Information about real time measurements can be found in ISO 2889:2021, Annex H.Sample processing, analysis and calculations of tritium and carbon‑14 emissions will be addressed in future parts of ISO 20041.

Le tritium et le carbone 14 sont généralement présents dans les effluents gazeux des installations nucléaires. La norme NF ISO 2889 présente les méthodes et dispositions d'échantillonnage des substances radioactives contenues dans l'air par les conduits des installations nucléaires. Les dispositions qui y sont définies couvrent l'ensemble des formes physiques des matières présentes dans les effluents gazeux : aérosols, vapeurs et gaz. Le présent document reprend intégralement, en les adaptant, les dispositions spécifiques aux gaz et vapeur de la norme NF ISO 2889 et y inclut des méthodes normatives pour la collecte des effluents en vue de leur mesurage.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department
To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

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.
