Abstract A rapid inexpensive method has been developed for transportation of recoiling short-lived radioactive nuclides from a target chamber over distances of several meters into a liquid phase. This allows rapid radiochemical separation of different elements. The carrier-loaded helium-jet transport technique is employed without a pumping system. The method would appear to be applicable to most chemical elements. The transport efficiency is higher than 50% and the transport time can be made much shorter than 1 s. Radiochemical separation times of a few seconds were achieved.
