THE CHEMISTRY OF THE ANION EXCHANGE PROCESS FOR THE RECOVERY OF PLUTONIUM

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4288373
; ;
A semi-theoretical study was made of the chemistry of the Anion Exchange Process for the recovery of plutonium. Pseudo-equilibrium constants were obtained for the systems plutonium(III) --Dowex 50, plutonium(In) -Dowex 50-W, and plutonium(IV)--Dowex 1, in nitric acid solution. Exchange height equations were obtained for the plutonium(III) --Dowex 50 and the plutonium(IV) --Dowex 1 systems. Elution equations are given for the systems plutonium(III) --Dowex 50 and plutonium(III) --Dowex 50-W. The equilibrium plutonium(IV) --Dowex 1 in the presence of uranium is also briefly discussed.
