Abstract (en)

A system (1) for automatically producing radioisotopes, and including a target carrier (8); an electrodeposition unit (2) for electrodepositing a target in the target carrier; an irradiation unit (3) for irradiating the target in the target carrier (8); first transfer means (5, 18) for transferring the target carrier from the electrodeposition unit (2) to the irradiation unit (3); an electrodissolution unit (2) for electrodissolving the irradiated target; second transfer means (5, 18) for transferring the target carrier from the irradiation unit (3) to the electrodissolution unit (2); a purifying unit (4) for purifying the radioisotope of the non-reacting target and impurities; third transfer means (6, 22) for transferring the electrodissolved irradiated target from the electrodissolution unit (2) to the purifying unit (4); and a central control unit (7) for controlling the operating units and transfer means to automate the entire process.
