Generations of separation: EMIS keeps improving
DOE/Oak Ridge National Laboratory
ORNL’s electromagnetic isotope separator, or EMIS, made history in 2018 when it produced 500 milligrams of the rare isotope ruthenium-96, unavailable anywhere else in the world.
And EMIS technology just keeps getting better, said Brian Egle, who heads the Enrichment Science and Engineering Division’s Stable Isotope Research, Development and Production Section.
“It’s capable of, essentially, separating the whole periodic table,” he said.
