Abstract: | The extraction of Np(IV), Pu(IV) and U(VI) from aqueous hydrochloric acid into quaternary amines has been studied. The dependence
of the distribution coefficient on amine concentration suggests that the actinide ions extracted are NpCl
6
2−
PuCl
6
2−
and UO2Cl
4
2−
. This is further supported by the absorption spectra of the amine extracts of these actinide ions. Based on the extraction
data obtained, a simple method for the separation of typical metal ions such as Cs, lanthanides and Zr from U(VI) and Pu(IV)
is suggested. |
