PRECIPITATION METHOD FOR THE RECOVERY OF PLUTONIUM FROM CHLORIDE SLAG AND CRUCIBLE--PROGRESS REPORT
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4155890
From laboratory-scale work, a flowsheet for the recovery of Pu from chloride slag and crucible was determined. The flowsheet is based on dissolving the slag and crucible in HNO/sub 3/, distilling away the major part of the acid, and adjusting the pH by adding NH/sub 4/OH so that any Pu which dissolves is precipitated, while the crucible materials are held in solution. All Pu is found with the residue. Dissolution of this residue produced solvent extraction feeds containing 15 g/l Pu. (W.L.H.)
