Extraction of plutonium ions from aqueous sulfuric acid solutions with D/sub 2/EHPA or D/sub 2/EHPA/TOPO

Patent Lieser, K.H.; Stojanik, B.

A method is described for separating plutonium ions from an aqueous solution containing sulfuric acid. The method comprises introducing into the aqueous solution 0.1 to 1.5 moles of nitrate ions per liter of aqueous solution. To the aqueous solution containing nitrate ions, there is added an organic phase comprising a solution of 0.1 to 1.0 M di-2-ethylhexylphosphoric acid in kerosene in a volume ratio of the aqueous solution containing nitrate ions to the organic phase of between 1:1 and 4:1 to extract the plutonium ions into the organic phase. The organic phase containing plutonium ions is then separated from themore »« less
SEPARATION OF PLUTONIUM VALUES FROM OTHER METAL VALUES IN AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS BY SELECTIVE COMPLEXING AND ADSORPTION

Patent Beaton, R.H.

A process is given for separating tri- or tetravalent plutonium from fission products in an aqueous solution by complexing the fission products with oxalate, tannate, citrate, or tartrate anions at a pH value of at least 2.4 (preferably between 2.4 and 4), and contacting a cation exchange resin with the solution whereby the plutonium is adsorbed while the complexed fission products remain in solution.
Quantitative description by means of linear free energy ratios of the effect of the aqueous phase concentration composition on extraction. IV. Extraction of tetravalent plutonium and neptunium from nitric acid solutions with amine nitrates

Journal Article Mezhov, E.A.; Rubisov, V.N.; Shesterikov, V.N.; ...

By means of a computer, a large mass of published data has been processed concerning the dependences of the distribution coefficients of tetravalent plutonium and neptunium between nitric acid aqueous solutions and extractants of the amine class, on the nitric acid concentration in the aqueous phase. More than 40 series of systems for plutonium and more than 20 for neptunium were considered (the series differed from one another in the nature and concentration of the extractant and diluent, and within the limits of the series only the concentration of nitric acid in the aqueous phase was varied). The possibility wasmore »« less
METHOD OF RECOVERING PLUTONIUM VALUES FROM AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS BY CARRIER PRECIPITATION

Patent James, R.A.; Thompson, S.G.

A process is presented for pretreating aqueous nitric acid- plutonium solutions containing a small quantity of hydrazine that has formed as a decomposition product during the dissolution of neutron-bombarded uranium in nitric acid and that impairs the precipitation of plutonium on bismuth phosphate. The solution is digested with alkali metal dichromate or potassium permanganate at between 75 and 100 deg C; sulfuric acid at approximately 75 deg C and sodium nitrate, oxaiic acid plus manganous nitrate, or hydroxylamine are added to the solution to secure the plutonium in the tetravalent state and make it suitable for precipitation on BiPO/sub 4/.
