Organizational Setting

The Department of Nuclear Sciences and Applications implements the IAEA's Major Programme 2, "Nuclear Techniques for Development and Environmental Protection". This Major Programme comprises individual programmes on food and agriculture, human health, water resources, environment and radiation technologies. These programmes are supported by laboratories in Seibersdorf, Monaco and Vienna. The Major Programme's objective is to enhance the capacity of Member States to meet basic human needs and to assess and manage the marine and terrestrial environments through the use of nuclear and isotopic techniques in sustainable development programmes.

The Isotope Hydrology Section is responsible for planning and implementing the IAEA’s water resources programme. The programme assists Member States in the sustainable management of all aspects of their water resources, but with a particular focus on isotope hydrology. Major activities include internationally coordinated research, global isotope monitoring, capacity building, and technical assistance to Member States to help them with the assessment, development and use of water resources. The Section also operates a well-equipped laboratory for the analysis of stable and radioactive isotopes. The laboratory trains counterparts in using analytical techniques for high-quality measurements of isotopes in water samples.

Main Purpose

Under the direction of the Team Leader of the Isotope Hydrology Laboratory (IHL), the Laboratory Technician provides technical support for the preparation and analysis of tritium (3H) in hydrological water samples for groundwater age dating purposes under Radio-Isotope Applications in Hydrology. Technical support includes organization, preparative sample distillation, electrolytic enrichment, and final distillation of samples for the determination of 3H concentration by Liquid Scintillation Counting. The Laboratory Technician also helps to instruct trainees that participate in IHL based tritium analysis trainings.

Functions / Key Results Expected

According to established procedures and quality standards as well as following safety regulations:
Prioritize and coordinate workflows of samples, in coordination with Senior Staff, identify and report discrepancies in samples. Open records in database (TRIMS) for recording of all sample data and information related to the samples
Conduct pre-distillation of environmental water samples with IONEX batch distillation or vacuum distillation, if required. Weigh samples, as required, and record values into the related database. Identify erroneous or atypical results
Conduct electrolytic 3H enrichment process of distilled water samples and standard water samples by using the high-performance tritium enrichment units or the standard method. Monitor progress of the electrolysis and identify deviation of expected process/behaviour of equipment or sample(s).
Conduct final distillation and finish process in the measuring unit.
Prepare samples for Liquid Scintillation Counting, prepare samples for stable isotope measurements, dead water samples, and other samples, as required.
Clean equipment and glassware according to required quality standards. Maintain stock of chemicals and other consumables.
Participate in training, such as for TC fellows and demonstrate the operation and procedures of the distillation and electrolytic enrichment systems of the laboratory.
Perform other duties as required and related to the Laboratory’s activities, such as ensuring the availability of copper tubes for Helium extraction by preparing and labelling as well as dispose according to standards.
