In this paper three different methods were used for plutonium separation and statistical tested-molecular recognition technology products AnaLig Ò Pu-02, liquidliquid extraction with Aliquat-336 and extraction chromatography with TRU Ò Resin. The methods performance was investigated by analysis of NPL (High Alpha-Beta 2005) intercomparison sample. Regression diagnostics procedures were used for examination of the regression triplet and pair t test were applied for comparison of methods for the separation of 239,240 Pu, 238 Pu with Aliquat-336, TRU Ò Resin and AnaLig Ò Pu-02. The presented results were evaluated as correct for all experimental data.

Chemical warfare agents (CWAs) are one of the most toxic compounds. Degradation of CWAs using decontamination agents is one of the few ways to protect human health against the harmful effects of CWAs. A ferrate (VI)-based potential chemical warfare agent decontaminant was studied for the degradation of persistent nitrogen mustard (tris(2-chloroethyl)amine, HN3). By optimizing the reaction conditions, the complete degradation of HN3 was achieved in 4 min. The degradation products contained mostly reduced Fe species, which confirmed the environmental friendliness of the proposed decontamination solution.
