Preparation of high-purity thorium by solvent extraction with di-(2-ethylhexyl) 2-ethylhexyl phosphonate

The extraction behavior of thorium(IV) by di-(2-ethylhexyl) 2-ethylhexyl phosphonate (DEHEHP, B) from nitric acid media has been investigated. The influence factors including the concentration of HNO₃, salting-out reagents, temperature, the concentration of metal ions and DEHEHP have been examined systematically. A possible extraction mechanism is proposed and the extracted species as Th(NO₃)₄·2B _(o) is confirmed by the slope analysis method. The extraction equilibrium constants (K _ex) and thermodynamic parameters (ΔG, ΔH and ΔS) were calculated under the present experimental conditions. DEHEHP shows a high selectivity of thorium(IV) over rare earths(III). Stripping study indicates that thorium can be completely stripped by distilled water from the Th-loaded DEHEHP. Furthermore, a solvent extraction process including six extraction stages, six scrubbing stages, and six stripping stages was designed for the preparation of highly pure thorium from thorium concentrate with DEHEHP as extractant in laboratory scale, and finally thorium product can be obtained with a purity of 99.999 % and a yield of 98 %.     

Interfacial behavior of Cyanex 302 and kinetics of lanthanum extraction

In this paper, interfacial tension of Cyanex 302 is measured by a Sigma-701 tensiometer and the adsorption parameters are calculated according to the Gibbs and Szyszkowski adsorption isotherms. The interfacial adsorbed behavior of Cyanex 302 is investigated. The results demonstrate that the dimer is the predominant species in the bulk organic phase; however, the monomer is adsorbed at the interface and more interfacially active. The effects of aqueous pH, ion strength, and temperature on the interfacial activity of Cyanex 302 in heptane are discussed and explained in detail. The lower interfacial activity of Cyanex 302 in aromatic hydrocarbon than in aliphatic hydrocarbon has also been determined. The values of interfacial excess at the saturated interface increase in the order n-heptane>cyclohexane>toluene>benzene, which is consistent with the order of extractability of lanthanum by Cyanex 302 in these diluents. The interfacial activity data are used to discuss the kinetic mechanism of lanthanum(III) extraction. It is shown that an interfacial mechanism is very probable, and the extraction limiting step is the reaction between the Cyanex 302 molecules in the organic phase sublayer and the adsorbed intermediate complex.     

Interfacial activity of metal ion extractant

The interfacial activity of metal ion extractants is discussed. The interfacial tension isotherms are processed by matching the Szyszkowski equation, and estimation of selected parameters to discuss the interfacial activity of extractants. Results are presented in comprehensive tables and figures. The interfacial activity depends mainly on three different parameters; type of extractant, acidity of the aqueous phase and organic diluent. Strongly acidic extractants and protonated amine reagents exhibit the highest interfacial activity. The solvating reagents and non-protonated amines are on the opposite side of the scale, while the chelating reagents are somewhere in the middle. The acidity of the aqueous phase affects the interfacial activity of extractants, mainly by the ionisation (protonation and dissociation) of extractant molecules. Solvating diluents always decrease the interfacial activity of extractants.

Extraction of uranium, thorium and lanthanides using Cyanex-923: Their separations and recovery from monazite

The extraction behavior of uranium, thorium and lanthanides, represented by cerium and ytterbium, by Cyanex-923 has been investigated. The effect of different variables like the concentration of acids, metal ion and extractant, nature of diluent and temperature has been studied. A composition for the extracted U(VI) and Th(IV) species has been proposed. Based on the partition data some important binary and ternary separations involving the aforesaid metal ions have been achieved. The proposed procedure has been applied for the recovery of uranium, thorium and lanthanide fraction from monazite sand. The stability and regeneration capacity of the extractant have been evaluated.     

The effect of diluents on the extraction of rare earth elements by methyl-n-diheptylamine nitrate

The extraction of microquantities of rare earth elements (REE) by methyl-n-diheptylamine solution in mesitylene, p-xylene, toluene, benzene and nitrobenzene has been examined. The parameter measuring the solvation of extractant in aqueous and organic phases has been suggested to describe quantitatively the influence of diluents on the extraction of REE. It was found that in spite of the considerable influence of diluents under investigation on the extraction of REE by methyl-n-diheptylamine nitrate the stoichiometry of the extracting reactions of these elements has been the same for all diluents. It has been shown that in general the consideration of the interaction of the extractant and diluents only is not sufficient to explain the regularities of their influence on the efficiency of the separation of REE nitrates.     

Extraction of Nitric Acid and Np(IV) by some aliphatic ketones and alcohols

The extraction behaviour of HNO₃ and Np(IV) from aqueous nitrate solutions with some aliphatic alcohols and ketones using hexane, carbon tetrachloride, benzene and chloroform as diluents was studied. The acid concentration in the aqueous phase varied from 0.25 to 10 M and that of the extractant in the organic phase varied from 0.5 M to the undiluted fraction. In the alcohol systems, solutions of the same alcohol in the diluents CCl₄ and CHCl₃ showed similar capacity for acid extraction, and also in the same diluents, solutions of diisopropyl and diisobutyl alcohol showed similar capacity for extraction. Extraction of Np(IV) with the different ketones and alcohols used follow the same pattern as HNO₃.     

INFLUENCE OF ANIONIC SURFACTANTS ON THE EXTRACTION RATE OF LACTIC ACID BY ALAMINE 336

Extraction rates of lactic acid from aqueous solutions using Alamine 336 dissolved in toluene have been studied by the single drop technique. Interfacial tensions as a function of extractant concentration and initial extraction rates as a function of lactic acid and Alamine 336 concentrations are repotted. Assuming the extraction takes place by an interfacial reaction mechanism, a mass transfer model is proposed for lactic acid reactive extraction. The model assumes a mixed regime, in which the slow diffusion transport of the amine extractant to die inner drop interface, and its protonation at the interface are the rate controlling steps. The influence of a synthetic anionic surfactant, sodium n-dodecyl sulphate, on the extraction process has been also studied. For surfactant concentrations above the specific CMC (critical micelle concentration), the surfactant increases the overall mass-transfer rate up to 40%. The surfactant influence on the extraction kinetics is described on the basis of increasing the interfacial potential and the resulting rise of the proton concentration at the interface.

A reinterpretation of C5-BTBP extraction data, performed in various alcohols

The separation of trivalent actinides from trivalent lanthanides present in used nuclear fuel can be achieved by using solvent extraction and the BTBP class of ligands. This separation is relevant for the advanced reprocessing of the used fuel. The choice of diluents in such BTBP based systems has shown to affect the extraction as well as the separation. Long chained alcohols have previously been investigated as such diluents, showing that the americium extraction is higher into alcohols having shorter chains (hexanol, and heptanol) than in longer chained ones (nonanol and decanol). In this work it is shown that not only the distribution ratio, but also the contact time needed before reaching extraction equilibrium is shorter when using shorter chain length of the alcohol diluent. It is also shown that the rate of extraction can be correlated to the interfacial tension between the diluent and the aqueous phase. A low interfacial tension gives a fast extraction while an extraction system with higher interfacial tension needs a longer time of phase contact in order to reach extraction equilibrium.     

Interfacial behavior of ACORGA CLX-50 and surface kinetics of copper extraction

Interfacial tension isotherms were determined and interpreted for ACORGA CLX-50. The hydration of extractant molecules in aqueous solution and at hydrocarbon/water interfaces was studied by molecular modelling. The usefulness of this technique to interpret the adsorption behavior was demonstrated. The interfacial kinetics was considered and relationships for various models of interfacial mechanism were derived and discussed. Despite its high hydrophobicity, ACORGA CLX 50 strongly adsorbs at the hydrocarbon/water interfaces and thus decreases effectively the interfacial tension. This high interfacial activity of ACORGA CLX 50 can be explained by the formation of hydrates. The interfacial tension isotherm can be well matched with the Szyszkowski equation. Molecular modelling suggests that ACORGA CLX 50 adsorbs at the hydrocarbon/water interface probably as a tetrahydrate containing two water molecules bonded to the same carbonyl oxygen atom (e.g., at position 3), one water molecule bonded to the oxygen atom of the second alkoxyl group (i.e., at position 5 when the hydration of carbonyl oxygen at position 3 is previously considered) and, finally, one water molecule bonded with the pyridine nitrogen atom. Positions 3 and 5 are equivalent. It is also shown that when the extraction of copper takes place in the kinetic regime, the reaction order with respect to ACORGA CLX 50 can change depending on the limiting step and the range of extractant concentration considered. Thus, a decrease of the extractant concentration from 10^?5M to 3·10^?3M causes a fall of the order with respect to ACORGA CLX 50 from 1 to 0 and 2 to 1 when the formation of the intermediate 1∶1 and final 2∶1 complexes are considered to be the limiting step, respectively.     

Effect of the nature of diluent on the extraction of beryllium by Aliquat 336 thiocyanate

Extraction mechanism is suggested on the basis of results obtained.     

Extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV) from nitric acid medium using tri(butoxyethyl) phosphate (TBEP) in <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-paraffin

Extraction behavior of U(VI) and Th(IV) from nitric acid medium is investigated using organo-phosphorous extractant, tri(butoxyethyl) phosphate in n-paraffin at room temperature (27 ± 1 °C). The effect of diluents, nitric acid concentration as well as extractant concentration on extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV) are evaluated. Extraction of U(VI) and Th(IV) from nitric acid medium proceeds via solvation mechanism. Slope analysis technique showed the formation of neutral complexes of the type of UO₂(NO₃)₂·2TBEP and Th(NO₃)₄·3TBEP with U(VI) and Th(IV) respectively in the organic phase. The FTIR data showed shifting of P=O stretching frequency from 1,282 to 1,217 cm⁻¹ indicating the strong complexation of P=O group with UO₂ ²⁺ ions in the organic phase. Effect of stripping agents, other metal ions and their separation with respect to U(VI) extraction has also been investigated.

Distribution coefficients of U(VI), Th(IV) and HNO₃ as a function of aqueous NHO₃ concentration, extractant concentration and temperature have been studied. The compositions of extracted species, thermodynamic parameters of extraction have been evaluated. Third phase formation in extraction of U(VI) has been studied. Back extraction behavior of U(VI) and Th(IV) from the organic phase has also been tested. The results obtained are compared with those obtained by using TBP under the same experimental conditions.     

N-oxides of 4-(5-nonyl)pyridine and trioctylamine as extractants for cerium(IV) and its separation from thorium(IV)

Trace level cerium has been oxidized to the quadrivalent state with potassium dichromate and shown to be preferentially extracted from very dilute mineral acid solutions and also from moderate nitric acid media by 0.1M solutions of 4-(5-nonyl)pyridine oxide and trioctylamine oxide dissolved in xylene. The dependence of extraction on the type of N-oxide, acid concentration and the N-oxide concentration has been investigated. The influence of the concentration of salting-out agents is described. Separation factors for a number of metal ions relative to cerium(IV) are reported for 0.1 M 4-(5-nonyl)pyridine oxide/xylene-0.1M sulphuric acid system. The ratio of the D for Ce(IV) to that of Ce(III) is greater than 10⁵, and the D for Ce(IV) is much greater than that for thorium(IV). Separation of cerium(IV) from thorium has been achieved from 0.1M sulphuric acid solutions using 0.1M 4-(5-nonyl)pyridine oxide/xylene as an extractant.     

Regeneration of cobalt-contaminated activated carbon by supercritical carbon dioxide extraction

A mixture of Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EPHA) and n-hexane or methanol is used as the extractant solution for extracting cobalt from activated carbon using supercritical carbon dioxide extraction technology. In this work, a semi-continuous pilot unit of SFE is employed to conduct the extraction. In order to feed the viscous extractant by HPLC pump, n-hexane or methanol is added as a diluent to reduce the viscosity of the extractant. The amount of cobalt removed along the time course of the extraction is recorded and plotted as an extraction curve. A kinetic model is also established and fit to the extraction curve, and the obtained parameters of the model are used to explain the regeneration mechanism. The effects of temperature ranged from?40 to?80?°C and the effect of the concentration of diluents on the extraction are investigated and discussed based on the established model. It is also found that the removal of cobalt ions reaches a maximum; this varies with the operational conditions and is known as maximum removal efficiency. It is presumed that the maximum removal efficiency is affected by the adsorption kinetics of the extractant and the rate of ion exchange between the extractant and metal ions on the surface of the activated carbon. After increasing the extraction temperature from?60 to?80?°C it is observed that the maximum removal efficiency is greatly increased, presumably resulting from the diminishing competitive adsorption between the extractant and diluents. The established model can help to reveal the extraction mechanism and to promote maximum removal efficiency for regenerating activated carbon without secondary pollution.     

溶剂萃取动力学的研究 II: 三辛基氧化膦从盐酸体系中萃取铀(IV)的速率

The kinetics of the oxtraction of U(IV) chloride in the TOPO-HCl system has been studied using the single drop technique, The effects of the concentrations of U(IV, TOPO and HCl on the extraction rate for U(IV) have been examined. The extraction rate measured were found to be of first order with respect to (U(IV)) and (TOPO) (0). Moreover, the rate varied with (HCl)^3^/^2 between 2-7M hydrochloric acid. The extraction rate equation can be written as R=K(U(IV))(TOPO)(0) The rate constant K was evaluated to be 3.7X10^-^5 at 3M HCl and 15`C. The extraction rate was increased with increasing temperature. The apparent activation energy was found to be 10.8 kcal/mol between 15 to 45`C. It is suggested that the rate-controlling step may be the chemical reaction of UCl4 with TOPO at the interface and the formation of the interfacial complex UCL4.TOPO.
