Abstract
The gas-jet recoil transport method has been adapted for the use as part of a system for rapid radiochemical separations. The recoil atoms are transported directly into a liquid chemical system with which subsequent chemical separations are carried out. Calculations show that the collector chamber can be operated at atmospheric pressure to allow easy performance of the chemistry without increasing severely the overall transport time. Transport efficiencies of 15–20% for fission products have been achieved. Application of the method is illustrated by radiochemical separations of Ba fission products from the fission-product mixture obtained by using a Ba carrier solution in HNO 3 as catcher.
