ABSTRACT:
A method for concentrating an isotope from an admixture containing the isotope by contacting the admixture with a catalyst capable of selectively catalyzing a reaction with the isotope, and recovering the concentrated isotope from the reaction products. In one embodiment, the method can be used to concentrate deuterium from sources such as hydrogen-rich gas.
