Measurement of the radioactivity in the environment - Air: tritium - Test method using bubbler sampling (ISO 20045:2023, including corrected version 2023-09)
This document describes a test method to determine the activity concentration of atmospheric tritium by trapping tritium in air by bubbling through a water solution.
The formulae are given for a sampling system with four bubblers. They can also be applied to trapping systems with only one trapping module consisting of two bubblers if only tritiated water vapour (HTO) is in the atmosphere to be sampled.
This document does not cover laboratory test sample results, in becquerel per litre of trapping solution, according to ISO 9698 or ISO 13168.
The test method detection limit result is between 0,2 Bq∙m-3 and 0,5 Bq∙m-3 when the sampling duration is about one week.
Bestimmung der Radioaktivität in der Umwelt - Luft: Tritium - Messverfahren mit Sammlung mittels Gaswaschflaschen (ISO 20045:2023, einschließlich der korrigierten Fassung von 2023-09)
Dieses Dokument beschreibt ein Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Aktivitätskonzentration luftgetragenen Tri¬tiums durch Einfangen des Tritiums in einer in Gaswaschflaschen enthaltenen wässrigen Lösung. Akti-vitäts¬konzentrationen luftgetragenen Tritiums werden in Becquerel je Kubikmeter (Bqm–3) angegeben.
Die Gleichungen sind für ein Probenahmesystem mit vier Gaswaschflaschen angegeben. Sie können auch für Sammler mit nur einer Sammeleinheit aus zwei Gaswaschflaschen angewendet werden, wenn nur tritiierter Wasserdampf (HTO) aus der Luft gesammelt werden soll.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht Ergebnisse von Laborproben in Becquerel je Liter der Rückhaltelösung nach ISO 9698 oder ISO 13168.
Die Nachweisgrenze des Prüfverfahrens liegt zwischen 0,2 Bqm–3 und 0,5 Bqm–3 bei einer Probenahme-dauer von etwa 1 Woche.

Merjenje radioaktivnosti v okolju - Zrak: tritij - Preskusna metoda z vzorčenjem z mehurčki (ISO 20045:2023, vključno s popravljeno različico 2023-09)
Ta dokument opisuje preskusno metodo za določanje koncentracije aktivnosti atmosferskega tritija z lovljenjem tritija v zraku z ustvarjanjem mehurčkov v raztopini vode.
Formule so podane za sistem vzorčenja s štirimi enotami za ustvarjanje mehurčkov. Uporabiti jih je mogoče tudi za sisteme lovljenja z enim samim lovilnim modulom, ki vključuje dve enoti za ustvarjanje mehurčkov, če je v atmosferi za vzorčenje prisotna samo tritirana vodna para (HTO).
Ta dokument ne zajema rezultatov laboratorijskih preskusnih vzorcev, v bekerelih na liter raztopine za lovljenje, v skladu s standardom ISO 9698 oziroma ISO 13168.
Rezultat mejne vrednosti zaznavanja preskusne metode je med 0,2 Bq∙m-3 in 0,5 Bq∙m-3, če vzorčenje traja približno en teden.
