Title: Basic TRUEX process for Rocky Flats Plant

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/10112063· OSTI ID:10112063

The Generic TRUEX Model was used to develop a TRUEX process flowsheet for recovering the transuranics (Pu, Am) from a nitrate waste stream at Rocky Flats Plant. The process was designed so that it is relatively insensitive to changes in process feed concentrations and flow rates. Related issues are considered, including solvent losses, feed analysis requirements, safety, and interaction with an evaporator system for nitric acid recycle.
