Popis: This technical paper presents information on the basic equipment and more than thirty-year experience of RFNC-VNIIEF activities in the sphere of producing highly enriched isotopes of actinide elements - thorium, uranium, neptunium, plutonium, americium and curium - for scientific research and practical applications. Electromagnetic separator and radiochemical methods are used to produce super pure isotope samples for nuclear-physical radiometric and mass-spectrometric equipment, and also as tracers when analyzing environmental contamination. There are stated science and engineering elaborations of technologies aimed at producing alpha-ray radiating radionuclides - thorium-229, thorium-228, actinium-225, radium-224 - for the purpose of anti-cancer therapy using bismuth-212 and bismuth-213 produced by specially developed generators.
