Abstract
The Chalmers Grouped ActiNide EXtraction process is a solvent extraction process for the homogeneous recycling of spent nuclear fuel. The use of TBP for the extraction of tetra- and hexavalent actinides can be problematic for several reasons, including troublesome degradation products causing crud formation, decreased extraction yield and the possibility of explosive red oil reactions. Here, the substitution of TBP by a N,N-dialkyl monoamide, DEHBA, is investigated. The findings suggest that DEHBA can be a suitable extracting agent for use in the CHALMEX solvent, although identified drawbacks need to be further investigated.
