However, the fuel is left a long time in the reactor, and plutonium 240 is produced as well as plutonium 239, which cannot separated chemically.

He said the plant irradiates reactor fuel, which is broken up and chemically separated into fission products, plutonium and uranium.

Plutonium and uranium can be chemically separated from spent fuel.

The U-233 chemically separated from the irradiated thorium fuel is highly radioactive.

The powder is mixed with water, and the gold and silver are separated chemically.

The U-233 produced thus does not require enrichment and can be relatively easily chemically separated from residual Th-232.

These fissile and fertile materials can be chemically separated and recovered from the spent fuel.

Isotopes of the same element cannot be separated chemically.

A replica can be separated from its template mechanically or chemically.

The plutonium was then chemically separated from the uranium.
