Abstract
The present disclosure relates processes and systems for producing and/or purifyingGa from an irradiated substrate ofZn. In some embodiments, the process rely on the use two cation-exchange chromatography columns to separateGa fromZn and other radionuclides and metallic impurities. The process achieves a high overall yield ofGa and a high effective molar activity while being implementable in a time compatible with the short half-life ofGa. In additional embodiments, the process is implemented by an automated system.
