Natural HTO levels in air at ground level were measured on 100 days during 1979-80. Levels of between 6-140 Bq m-3 of air were observed and found to have a correlation with atmospheric pressure. Lithium chloride was used to absorb moisture, which was then recovered by distillation with xylene prior to liquid scintillation counting using a Triton X-100 cocktail. HTO in the air of a reactor hall and HTO in seawater were also measured by this method.
在1979年至1980年期间,对地面空气中的天然氚化水(HTO)水平进行了100天的测量。观测到空气中HTO水平在6 - 140贝克勒尔每立方米之间,并且发现其与大气压力存在相关性。使用氯化锂吸收水分,然后在使用Triton X - 100鸡尾酒进行液体闪烁计数之前,通过与二甲苯蒸馏回收水分。反应堆大厅空气中的HTO以及海水中的HTO也通过该方法进行了测量。
