Analytical Laboratory Provides comprehensive analytical support for INEEL site clean-up and waste management activities More information is available at www.inel.gov/env-energyscience/analyticallab Department of Energy (DOE)-Idaho National Engineering and Environmental laboratory (INEEL) The Analytical Laboratory provides comprehensive analytical support for INEEL site clean-up and waste management activities. This includes organic, inorganic, and radiochemical laboratory services, RCRA and DOT sample certification, and chain-of-custody sample management. For a half-century, the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory has managed radioactive and hazardous wastes while conducting nuclear research and operations. Monitoring, handling, storage and transport activities require extensive sampling and chemical analysis. Though a relatively low percentage of work is from outside the INEEL, research partners can benefit from the Analytical Laboratory's capabilities, such as one of the world's few remote-operated hot cell inductively coupled plasma spectrometers. Staff conduct metal characterization using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, cold vapor atomic absorption spectrometers, and x-ray fluorescence. Organic samples are analyzed through gas chromatography mass spectrometry, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and supercritical fluid extraction. Inorganic samples are analyzed using ion chromatography; halogen and sulfur analyzers; and diode array spectrometry. Radiochemistry is conducted with gamma-ray spectrometers, low energy photon spectrometers, beta proportional counters, alpha spectrometry systems, and liquid scintillation counters.
