Urenco Isotopes Collaborates on EMIS Test Facility to Strengthen Europe's Enriched Lanthanide Isotope Supply Chain
On July 28, 2026, Urenco Isotopes announced a collaboration with RI Research Instruments to advance the construction of a dedicated Electromagnetic Isotope Separation (EMIS) test facility, aiming to strengthen the future European supply chain for enriched lanthanide elements and meet the growing demand for high-purity stable isotopes in scientific research and potential medical isotope applications. Lanthanides are rare earth metals, and their isotopes may be used in the future for cancer diagnosis and treatment. Currently, reliable sources of high-purity lanthanide stable isotopes remain limited, with the supply chain concentrated among a few producers, and Europe's local supply capacity is relatively insufficient. Under the collaboration arrangement, RI Research Instruments...
