CATION EXCHANGE METHOD FOR THE RECOVERY OF PROTACTINIUM

Patent ·
OSTI ID:4236058
;
A cation exchange prccess is described for separating protactinium values from thorium values whereby they are initially adsorbed together from an aqueous 0.1 to 2 N hydrochloric acid on a cation exchange resin in a column. Then selectively eluting the thorium by an ammonium sulfate solution and subsequently eluting the protactinium by an oxalate solution.
