The Recovery of uranium from phosphatic sources in relation to the E. E. C
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6860618
The recovery of uranium from phosphatic sources is reviewed in the context of the EEC. The potential and technology available for recovery from fertilizer products, furnace slag, beneficiated slimes, leached zone material, leach residues and indigenous phosphates is assessed. However, the main emphasis is on the technology available for recovery from 30 percent P2O5 phosphoric acid produced from imported phosphate rock concentrate. In particular, various solvent extraction processes now being used commercially at large scale phosphoric acid plants, mainly in North America, are discussed in detail together with research and development on solvent extraction and various other possible recovery processes. The available techniques are compared and a discussion of the economic aspects is given.
