OSTI ID:4675229

A three-column extraction process using tributyl phosphate is outlined for the effective separation of Pu from irradiated U. Means is provided for delaying the flow of solvent extractant to permit the Pu dibutyl phosphate complex to be converted into the tributyl phosphate complex for easier stripping from the solvent.
