Abstract
Two portable devices for the radiometric analysis of industrial water are described. Chlorides are precipitated by a known volume of standard silver nitrate labelled with110mAg; the decrease of activity is proportional to the amount of ionic chlorine. Determination of dissolved oxygen is achieved by dissolution of radioactive thallium, and the activity of the effluent is directly related to the concentration of oxygen.
