Scope

What is ISO 13166 about?    ISO 13166 discusses water quality in terms of radioactive contamination. ISO 13166 is one of a family of International Standards on test methods dealing with the measurement of the activity concentration of radionuclides in water samples.    ISO 13166 specifies the conditions for the determination of uranium isotope activity concentration in samples of environmental water (including sea waters) using alpha-spectrometry and 232 U as a yield tracer. Chemical separation is required to separate and purify uranium from a test portion of the sample.   Who is ISO 13166 for? BS ISO 13166:2020 history
