Abstract

Laser-induced Photoacoustic Spectroscopy (LPAS) is developed for the direct speciation of actinides in aquatic solutions. The speciation sensitivity is attained in the submicromol range, e.g. Ami3+ (ε = 400 L mol−1cm−1 down to 10−8 mol L−1, or ppb. The method provides spectroscopic information of chemical states of actinides and hence facilitates the study of their hydrolysis-reaction, complexation, redox-reaction and colloid generation. The application of LPAS is demonstrated for the speciation of Am and Pu ions in different solutions.
