Development of a separation method for molybdenum from zirconium, niobium, and major elements of rubble samples.A method for separation of Mo from Zr, Nb, and other major elements of rubble samples from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station (FDNPS) was developed to enable 93Mo assay of the rubble samples.  Consequently, Mo was successfully separated from Zr, Nb and other major metal ions of the simulated rubble sample.
