Description

Ionic-liquid (IL) based aqueous biphasic system was developed for the separation of no-carrier-added (NCA) 97Ru from bulk niobium target for the first time as greener separation technology. Room temperature ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium Chloride ((Bmim)Cl) against K2HPO4 as salt rich phase was employed to construct this IL-ABS system. In the typical experimental condition, 50 % NCA 97Ru was extracted into the ionic liquid phase without any contamination of Nb, with a separation factor of 5.3x103. (author)
