The distribution ratio of Fu(IV) and Fu(III) between nitric acid solution and tri-n-buty- phosphine oxide solution diluted with carbcn tetrachloride was determined in the range of nitric acid concentration from 0.5M to 10M and tri-n-butyl phosphine oxide concentration from 1 x 10/sup -4/M to 3 x 10/sup -1/(M. It was found that plutonium can be easily extracted from the irradiated urantum under the suitable conditions of extraction. (auth)
