Abstract

Fast separation methods were devised for short-lived fission products embedded in Mg catcher foils; these are based on solvent extraction techniques.34Cl is a major contamination problem because it is formed directly by spallation in the catcher foil. The methods for Ag, Br and I had a decontamination factor of >1000: 1 for this isotope.
