METHOD OF RECOVERY OF URANIUM BY A RESIN-IN-PULP PROCESS
Patent
·
OSTI ID:4805454
A method is given for recovering dissolved uranium compounds from acid leach liquors. The method comprises contacting the liquor with ion exchange material capable of fixing uranium compounds in the form of complex ions in one zone, causing flow through a screen having a predominantly vertical component and openings at least two mesh sizes finer than the particle size of ion exchange material and at least 2 mesh sizes larger than the ore pulp particles, and causing a turbulent layer of gas and liquid bubbles to pass across the screen sufficient to prevent blinding of the soreen whereby uninterrupted screening and circulation within the zone is effected. A group of such zones or cells are arranged in series, and as the ore pulp passes from cell to cell, its uranium content is completely extracted.
