Abstract: | Two
methods capable of near complete recovery of technetium adsorbed on charcoal
are presented. The first involves liquid extraction of the technetium from the
charcoal by hot 4M nitric acid. An average recovery of 98% (n=3) is
obtained after three rounds of extraction. The second method involves dry
ashing with air in a quartz combustion tube at 400-450 °C. This method yields
an average recovery of 96% (n=5). Other thermal methods were attempted, but
resulted in reduced recovery and incomplete material balance.</p>
