Abstract

A differential pulse voltammetric method has been successfully used for the determination of uranium in low concentration streams of a uranium plant. The method gives a precision of about 13% to 7% in the range of 300 ppb to 15 ppm. The accuracy of the results was ascertained by comparing the values with those obtained by a spectrophotometric method. The method is simple, fast, sensitive, fairly accurate and does not require a preconcentration step.
