Radiochemical Procedures for the Rare Gases

The largest collection of papers dealing with rare gas radiochemistry of which the author is aware is found in the last one of the nine General References given at the beginning of this monograph. 

The following procedures were chosen for description with a view to calling attention to as many useful techniques and operations as possible. The author would appreciate information concerning other procedures which should be included in such a collection. 

PROCEDURE 1 - REMOVAL OF Kr AND Xe FROM AIR AND THEIR SUBSEQUENT SEPARATION

The system is used for the separation of rare gases from various types of samples, and the procedure described below admittedly does not treat a problem often encountered. It was chosen to represent the extremes of sample size, flow rates and partial pressures of rare gases for which separation has been successfully achieved with the system, and to afford a framework within which the largest number of operations could be described.
