A separation process is described for separating a known material from a mixture of materials (which may contain unknown materials) using displacement chromatography. The process comprises passing a mixture of materials, including a known material to be recovered, dissolved in a liquid carrier, if necessary, through a first packed column and into a second packed column until all of the known material has passed through the first column and has been loaded onto the stationary phase packing in the second column. A displacement agent, capable of being more strongly bound on the stationary phase packing in the second column than the known material, is then passed through the second column to displace from that column all of the materials in the mixture less strongly bound than the known material, and then to displace the known material from the second column. The columns are then regenerated, preferably by passing a carrier directly through column 2 (in the forward direction of flow) and then passing the effluent from column 2 through column 1 in a reverse direction. The flow through column 2 is continued until all of the displacement agent has been removed from column 2. In one embodiment, a solvent is also counter flushed through the first column to dissolve any precipitates therein.
