MEK extraction of using a tandem sorbent column system for nonevaporation removing of MEK from the extracted -MEK phase: (a) conceptual process diagram of recovery by MEK extraction using a tandem cation-exchange resin/acidic alumina column system for nonevaporation removing of MEK (1: cation-exchange resin column; 2: alumina column; 3: peristaltic pump; 4: Milipore filter; 5: redistilled water; 6: saline; 7: final sterile -pertechnetate solution; 8: waste container; V1 and V2: solenoid valves; S: syringe for MEK addition; EX: extractor containing ; M: magnetic stirrer). The generator design is performed by author of this paper based on the processes reported in the literature [98, 102]. (b) Process diagram and (c) computerized module developed in BRIT for separation based on the MEK extraction coupled with MEK-removing using a tandem basic/acidic alumina column system [99, 100].
