Distribution coefficients of technetium and ruthenium are determined under different conditions with CCl4, cyclohexanone, and 5% tri-isooctylamine (TIOA)/xylene. A method for analyzing99Tc in environmental samples has been developed by solvent extraction in which the valences of technetium and ruthenium are controlled with H2O2and NaClO. Technetium and ruthenium which are oxidized to TcO4−and RuO4−by NaClO are separated by extraction with CCl4at pH 4. The RuO4−is reduced to low valence and technetium is kept in the TcO4−state with H2O2. Technetium, ruthenium, and other nuclides are subsequently separated by solvent extraction with cyclohexanone and 5% TIOA/xylene. The decontamination of the procedure is 1.35·105for103Ru and 1.66·105for110mAg. The chemical yield of technetium-99 is 55%.
