THE EXTRACTION OF NEPTUNIUM(IV) AND PLUTONIUM(IV) FROM NITRIC ACID SOLUTION WITH TRI-N-OCTYL AMINE
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:4325066
Tri-n-octylamine conveniently extracts neptunium(IV) and plutonium(IV) from nitric acid solutions. Preliminary experiments to demonstrate the utility of this type of reagent have been performed; in particular the extraction of neptunium or plutonium from Purex waste streams has been demonstrated. Experiments have also been performed to determine what may be expected in the way of fission product decontamination and radiation stability of tri-noctylamine. Fission product decontamination is not appreciably altered by the organic phase being highly irradiated. This report describes preliminary work designed to determine the solvent extraction characteristics of tri-n-octylamine in the nitric acid system. In particular the solvent extraction behavior of neptunium and plutonium has been investigated. (auth)
