$ASPI #Shortages of global supplies of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) and lutetium-177 (Lu-177) may be inevitable.
MAJOR ADVANTAGES OF PRODUCTION OF ISOTOPES by ASP
FACT: There are only five nuclear reactors in the world capable of producing the Mo-99, an isotope used to produce technetium-99 (Tc-99m). Tc-99m is used in approximately 50,000 diagnostic medical procedures every day in the U.S. for advanced diagnostic imaging tests and limits in production directly impact patient care and access.

$ASPI 5,352 views- ASP Isotopes is an isotope enrichment company utilizing technology developed in South Africa over the past 20 years to enrich isotopes of elements or molecules with both low and high atomic masses. Many of these elements are unsuitable for enrichment using traditional methods such as centrifuges. The company believes that its technology has a low capital cost and is extremely environmentally friendly. The company's first commercial product will be Molybdenum 100, which has the potential to replace Molybdenum 99, a commonly used product in the diagnostic imaging market.
ASP Isotopes: Creating a Brighter, Cleaner Future for Isotope Production
NEWS: ASP Isotopes Inc. Recognizes the Current Mo-99 Shortages and Continues to Execute on Plans to Help Ease Supply Chain Issues before 2024
Monday, November 21, 2022 8:45 AM
Company Update
BOCA RATON, FL / ACCESSWIRE / November 21, 2022 / ASP Isotopes Inc. (NASDAQ:ASPI) ("ASPI", the "Company", "us", "we" or "our"), an advanced materials company dedicated to the development of technology and processes designed to produce isotopes used in multiple industries, today confirmed that we remain on track to achieve our planned production of commercial quantities of highly enriched Molybdenum-100 before 2024. The Company plans to offer highly enriched Mo-100 to be used in the production of either technetium-99m (Tc-99m) or Mo-99 in a cyclotron or in a linear accelerator. Mo-99 is the active ingredient for Tc-99m-based radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear medicine procedures to diagnose heart disease and cancer, to study organ structure and function, and to perform other important medical applications.
On November 17, 2022, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) placed Tc-99m Sodium Pertechnetate generators on the Drug Shortages List. The Company has previously recognized the Mo-99 supply chain challenges in the existing medical isotope market. Currently, several overseas reactors that produce Mo-99, which is used to produce Tc-99m, are offline. The Mo-99 supply chain has historically been fragile and remains so today. The Company also understands that several ex-US consumers of Mo-99 are currently without supply, due to these supply issues. More information regarding the availability of Tc-99m generators is available on the FDA Drug Shortages List (https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/drugshortages/default.cfm).
The Company's molybdenum enrichment facility, currently under construction in Pretoria, South Africa is designed to have capacity to produce greater than 20 Kg/ year of molybdenum enriched to >95% in the Mo-100 isotope. The Company continues to expect that this facility will enter commercial production before 2024. The Company is in commercial discussions with multiple potential customers in multiple regions, with anticipated demands that currently exceed four times the headline capacity of the plant during the first five years of proposed production. The Company plans to expand capacity to meet the demands of these potential customers and update investors with the actual production capacity of the facility during 1H 2023 when the plant is expected to enter the commissioning phase.
About ASP Isotopes Inc.
ASP is an advanced materials company dedicated to the development of technology and processes designed to produce isotopes used in multiple industries. We have an exclusive license to use proprietary technology, the Aerodynamic Separation Process ("ASP technology") for the production, distribution, marketing and sale of all isotopes.
Our initial focus is on the production and commercialization of enriched Molybdenum-100 ("Mo-100"), and we are constructing a first commercial-scale Mo-100 enrichment plant located in South Africa. We believe that the Mo-100 we may develop using the ASP technology has significant potential advantages for use in the preparation of nuclear imaging agents by radiopharmacies and others in the medical industry.

Over the past 18 years, our scientists have developed the Aerodynamic Separation Process (ASP) that allows for the enrichment of isotopes that either cannot be enriched, or are challenging to enrich, using traditional approaches. Specifically, our technology allows us to enrich elements with both low and high atomic masses.
Our initial focus in on the production of Molybdenum-100 that we expect to compete with Molybdenum-99, which is currently used to produce technetium-99m, the most frequently used imaging radionuclide. The supply chain is highly complex and plagued by regular supply interruptions, which in turn is associated with serious implications for both hospitals and patients. The Global Mo-99 market is estimated at > $3bn.
Nine of the ten nuclear reactors that currently produce Mo-99 globally are expected to cease operations by 2030. Many companies and governments are searching for alternative methods of producing Technetium-99m that does not involve the fission of uranium.
We aim to complete the construction of our first enrichment facility by the end of 2022, with commissioning expected during 2023. We expect to start generating revenues during 2024. There has been significant interest from potential customers in our technology.
ASP makes us ideally situated to resolve the widely anticipated supply shortage of HALEU, the fuel that will power the nuclear reactors of the future. Our technology should allow for us to construct a HALEU plant at lower cost and in a shorter timeframe than alternative technologies.

ASP has its origins in the South African uranium enrichment program in the 1980s and the ASP technology has been developed during the last 18 years by our scientists. ASP technology has demonstrated efficacy and commercial scalability in the enrichment of oxygen-18 and silicon-28.
The ASP separation device separates both gas species and isotopes in a volatile state via an approximate flow pattern as shown below:
The ASP enrichment process uses an aerodynamic technique similar to a stationary wall centrifuge. The isotope material in raw gas form enters the stationary tube at high speed by tangential injection through finely placed and sized openings in the surface of the tube. The gas then follows a flow pattern that results in two gas vortexes occurring around the geometrical axis of the separator.
The isotope material becomes separated in the radial dimension as a result of the spin speed of the isotope material reaching several hundred meters per second. An axial mass flow component in each tube feeds isotope material to the respective ends of the separator where the collection of the portions of isotope material is accomplished.
The ASP separation device separates both gas species and isotopes in a volatile state.
