Popis: T-52 sorbent was chosen for recovering 99Mo from low-enriched uranium fuel of a homogeneous solution reactor, because this sorbent exhibits the maximal 99Mo distribution coefficient in sorption from solutions containing 150–360 g L–1 uranium. The use of sulfate and nitrate solutions for producing and recovering 99Mo from the fuel of a homogeneous solution reactor was compared. The optimum composition of the solution fuel of a commercial reactor for 99Mo production was suggested: nitric acid uranium solution (20% 235U, 100–200 g L–1, 1 M HNO3).
