Uchida Division of Radioecology, National Institute of Radiological Sciences, 3609 Isozaki, Nakaminato-shi, Ibaraki, 311-12, Japan (Received May 23, 1993; revised June 30, 1993) Technetium-99 / Soil / Volatilization / Combustion / Separation of with a combustion apparatus was investigated. in Solution is measured by induc- ICP-MS / Solvent extraction tively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). ICP-MS was chosen because of its capability for deter- mination of trace elements; it has been reported to Summary detect environmental '®Tc with a high sensitivity [8, 9, A simple method for determination of "T c in soil by ICP- 10], MS is reported. The procedures involved are as follows: 1) Technetium is volatilized in a combustion apparatus for 3 hours at 950°C and trapped in a K2CO3 Solution. 2) After addition of H2O2, technetium is extracted into cyclohexanone to remove Ru Experimental which has also an isotope of mass 99. 3) Tc in the organic layer is back-extracted into deionized water. 4) The Solution is 1.
