Abstract

Adsorption behaviour of trace elements, In(III), Sn(IV), Sb(V) and Te(IV) on activated carbon and graphite powder was studied. Adsorption characteristics of the ions enabled the separation of In(III)−Sn(IV), Sn(IV)−Sb(V) and Sb(V)−Te(IV) pairs. Applications to practical separation, milking of113mIn from113Sn, removal of tin impurity from119Sb, and milking of119Sb from119mTe, are presented.
