Abstract: | The effect of agitation time and resin quantity on the sorption of americium, curium and europium from mineral acid solutions, using a chelating resin based on aminopolystyrene and Arsenazo I was determined, and the behaviour of plutonium and fission products was investigated under optimum conditions with respect to the sorption of americium and curium. A procedure is proposed for concentrating americium and curium from dilute solutions, combined with their separation from iron, plutonium and fission products. The procedure consists of sorption on the chelating resin from 0.1–1N mineral acid solutions, washing of the resin with 0.5M oxalic acid and 11N sulfuric acid, and elution of americium and curium with 2M triammonium citrate. |
