Summary:

/sup 85/Kr will be evolved from spent nuclear fuel during both the voloxidation and dissolution processes, so a reliable method for on-line analysis of /sup 85/Kr in the off-gas system is needed. Tritium, /sup 14/C, and /sup 129/I were trapped, and the activity of /sup 85/Kr was then measured using a Li-drifted Ge detector. Equipment used to carry out this analysis is described; the PET computer is used. The /sup 85/Kr evolution rate was correlated with the fuel dissolution rate; the close correlation permits one to monitor the fuel dissolution process. 11 figures. (DLC)
