Abstract
A method is proposed for the luminescence determination of neptunium in natural waters with the removal of interfering iron. For the separation of iron ionic and colloidal species, solid-phase extraction with N-benzoyl-phenylhydroxylamine as a complexing reagent is used. The method makes possible the reduction of iron concentration in samples by more than two orders of magnitude without noticeable losses of neptunium and, therefore, the attainment of a detection limit for neptunium equal to its value in samples containing no iron.
