Abstract

802,971. Transmutation of elements. VERSCHRAEGHEN, L. Jan. 28, 1957 [Jan. 27, 1956; Dec. 18, 1956], No. 3050/57. Class 39(4). Radiocative residues, e.g., from nuclear reactors, having undesirable long-term radioactivity are irradiated to convert them into stable isotopes or isotopes of short-term radioactivity Bi<SP>207</SP> is subjected to a neutron flux causing fission and producing stable Ru<SP>104</SP> or Ru<SP>103</SP> and Ru<SP>105</SP> which decay rapidly to stable Rh<SP>103</SP> and Pd<SP>105</SP>. With alpha particles Tl<SP>204</SP> or N<SP>13</SP> is converted into stable Pb<SP>208</SP> or O<SP>17</SP>. In a neutron flux Sr<SP>85</SP> is converted to Sr<SP>86</SP> or Rb<SP>85</SP>; Bi<SP>207</SP> to Pb<SP>208</SP>; Pb<SP>202</SP> to Tl<SP>203</SP>; Sr<SP>90</SP> to Zr<SP>91</SP>. After conversion the new isotopes are separated by any chemical or physical means (see Group III) and the remainder may then be subjected to different irradiation.
