Protocols for Uranium Carbon Analysis
In 1998, MST-6 (now SIGMA) installed a Horiba EMIA-8200 Carbon/Sulfur analyzer to provide the ability to perform in-house chemical analysis on a variety of materials including uranium. While many of the results and procedures were detailed in program files, no compiled record of the overall analytic process was ever published. This retrospective utilizes existing logbooks, operator interviews, instrument manuals, and notes to catalog what is known about the past procedures and protocols for carbon analysis that were established and present the data informing those decisions.
