A request was made by Purex Processing to sample analyze the tritium released from the Purex k. The analyses show that over 90 percent he emit-ted tritium is in either the ammoniacal or elemental form, probably elemental. The rate of emission varies widely depending on the point in progress of the dissolution. The Purex stack air was sampled for tritium in the 293-A Building by breaking the iodine monitor sampling line (Figure 1).
