The world is currently suffering from a severe shortage of $$^{99}$$Mo and various R&Ds have been given for its availability. The only but critical shortage of (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo is its extremely low specific activity, which gives inconveniency in the extraction of $$^{99m}$$Tc and is consequently converted to additional cost. Potential technologies which make the (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo competitive by reducing the additional cost are already available. Because Japan and Korea import all $$^{99}$$Mo from long distance, the cost benefit of local (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo production in these countries is especially large. In this report, we studied feasibility of the mass (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo production from viewpoints of global and regional status of $$^{99}$$Mo demand and supply, competitiveness with other production methods, requirements and flow of the $$^{99}$$Mo, production capability, cost, convenience in usage, and alternative technologies to overcome its shortage.

Revaluation of $$^{99}$$Mo production by (n,$$gamma$$) method at HANARO

After the feasibility study on $$^{99}$$Mo production by (n,$$gamma$$) method at HANARO was published by a KAERI report, worldwide supply of $$^{99}$$Mo became worse and a need for early available alternative $$^{99}$$Mo became stronger. Previous study indicated that the (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo has a potential to be an alternative mass $$^{99}$$Mo available earlier than those by any other methods. It can be realized when radioisotope industry of each country accepts the use of (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo for a meaningful portion of national demand. A good backup supply system among high flux reactors in the region is a prerequisite to guarantee a stable and sufficient availability of the (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo for the region, for which active collaboration among reactors is essential. As the initial stage of collaboration between HANARO and JMTR for the (n,$$gamma$$)$$^{99}$$Mo supply, the specific experience and $$^{99}$$Mo production capability in HANARO have been discussed and revisited on the base of the previous report.
