IMPROVEMENTS IN METHODS OF PRODUCING IODINE-131
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4013906
A method is given for the production of pure /sup 131/I with a high yield and activity by the neutron irradiation of tellurium compounds. In the method, tellurium dioxide is first irradiated and then dissolved in an alkaline solution to form tellurite, the tellurite is oxidized by H/sub 2/O/sub 2/ to form tellurate, the solution is acidified, and /sup 131/I is distilled from the solution. An apparatus for carrying out the dissolution, oxidation, and distillation is described. (D.L.C.)
