Title: Hafnium(IV) complexation with oxalate at variable temperatures

Journal Article · · Radiochimica Acta

Abstract Appropriate management of fission products in the reprocessing of spent nuclear fuel (SNF) is crucial in developing advanced reprocessing schemes. The addition of aqueous phase complexing agents can prevent the co-extraction of these fission products. A solvent extraction technique was used to study the complexation of Hf(IV) – an analog to fission product Zr(IV) – with oxalate at 15, 25, and 35°C in 1 M HClO
