An automated closed cycle module for the separation and recovery of various isotopes, radioactive or non-radioactive, using solvent extraction and column chromatography techniques, and in particular, for separation and recovery of Tc-99m from low-medium specific activity Mo-99, is described. The module may also be applicable for separation of Tc-99m produced in a cyclotron. The module is safe and reliable to avoid human interference and hazards posed by handling of radioactive and hazardous chemicals. The entire system of automation includes a user-friendly PC based graphical user interface (GUI) that actually supervises the process via an embedded system based electronic controller.
