Neptunium behavior in solvent extraction of uranium at Savannah River Plant
The solvent extraction behavior of neptunium in the processing of irradiated natural uranium (Purex process) and irradiated enriched uranium (HM process) at Savannah River was studied in the laboratory. Conditions were demonstrated for extracting neptunium in the first solvent extraction contactor of each process, and two methods were developed for partitioning neptunium from uranium in the HM process.
