Introduction: Due to the recent Fukushima nuclear contaminated water discharge incident in Japan, radiation testing for seawater, seafood, food, cosmetics, etc. has received high attention, and the attention to related testing instruments continues to increase.

Due to the recent Fukushima nuclear contaminated water discharge incident in Japan, radiation testing for seawater, seafood, food, cosmetics, etc. has received high attention, and the attention to related testing instruments has continued to increase. It is reported that many people purchase nuclear radiation detectors through various e-commerce platforms, and the previously unpopular products are now experiencing a sharp increase in sales.

Currently, multiple instrument companies are actively responding to the needs of investors and users:

Ulide stated on the investor interaction platform that the company currently has a UT334A radiation dose detector, which is a small and highly sensitive radiation dose alarm device mainly used to monitor X-rays Beta rays Gamma rays can measure dose rates in real-time, with a measurement range of 0.05uSv-50mSv and a measurement accuracy of -17% to+25% based on 137CS gamma.

"At the end of last year, CDS Company, a subsidiary of the company, signed an agreement with a Japanese company to provide long-term supply of Empore strontium separation and enrichment membranes for the next four years to meet customers' continuous testing of strontium content in nuclear wastewater," said Laibertek

Jieqiang Equipment stated, "The level of danger caused by Japan's nuclear wastewater discharge is influenced by various factors, including the release amount of nuclear wastewater, the effectiveness of treatment measures, ocean currents, and mixing. The company's existing nuclear wastewater detection and treatment products include nuclear radiation monitoring, detection and radioactive nuclide analysis equipment, protection and disinfection equipment, with a complete range of product categories. The company's subsidiary, Shanghai Yixing, focuses on" specialization, precision, and novelty "and has focused on tackling products such as tritium carbon-14 sampling and preparation product line, krypton-85 purification instrument, radioactive air sampler, proton and heavy ion track etching."

Hexin Instrument: The company has always been concerned about the detection of radioactive elements in water related to Fukushima nuclear pollution, and is also paying attention to the types of radioactive elements published by various research institutions. Currently, the company's related equipment such as inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS), magnetic mass spectrometry, single particle aerosol mass spectrometry (SPAMS) can all play a role in this scenario. At present, there are no relevant orders and they are still being tested and discussed with relevant scientific research and business units. The demand for mass spectrometry instruments and the compatibility of the instruments for this polluted water discharge incident are still in the argumentation stage, and the impact on the company's operating performance cannot be estimated at the moment.

Not only that, multiple related instrument companies have also launched related solutions:

In response to the unique characteristics of nuclide detection, such as the complexity, diversity, and ultra trace concentrations of samples, as well as the complexity of pre-treatment of seawater samples, Leibniz Technology has launched a new "Integrated Solution for Monitoring Radioactive Pollution in Seawater". This solution integrates multiple automated pre-treatment equipment and analytical instruments, including a fully automated nuclide solid-phase extraction device, a co precipitation separation device, an efficient nuclide separation system, and an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer. The synergistic effect of these instruments and equipment can achieve rapid separation, sample preparation, and detection of radioactive elements in seawater, making the entire detection process more intelligent and efficient.

There are currently various instruments used to analyze the content of radioactive elements, among which inductively coupled plasma emission mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) has many advantages, such as wide linear range, extremely low detection limit, high sensitivity, and fast analysis speed. It is widely used for the analysis of radioactive isotopes with longer half-lives. In response to the incident of nuclear contaminated water being discharged into the sea, Puyu Technology has also released a solution: ICP-MS/MS to assist in the analysis and detection of radioactive isotopes in nuclear wastewater.
