Abstract
The paper reports on the observation of spontaneous fission of nuclides, concentrated in fly ash during the combustion of high-carbon (graphite) material, chemogenic siliceous-carbonaceous rocks and carbonaceous shale in the mixture with brown coal. In the samples obtained, the spontaneous fission was measured by track method. The zones of precipitation of spontaneous fission of nuclides and their lighter homologues on thermochromatographic column were determined. A nuclide with a half-life of 62 days was detected in the alkaline trap. The chemical treatment procedure included co-precipitation with iron hydroxide, dissolution in NH4OH + H2O2 solution and distillation by heating up to 100°C followed by AgI co-precipitation. Based on the chemical behavior it can be concluded that the detected radionuclide belongs to the halides. The content of the parent nuclide in high-carbon (graphite) material and chemogenic siliceous-carbonaceous rock corresponds to 10–14 g/g.
