Abstract:Cs-137 is the most released fission product in the marine environment. It is important to develop a robust in situ technique for its monitoring. The existing diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) passive sampling techniques for in situ measurement of Cs + have some limitations due to the ion competition and high pH of seawater. A new DGT sampler based on potassium zinc hexacyanoferrate (KZFCN) as a binding layer has been developed and investigated for the measurement of the timeweighted average concentration… Show more
