Abstract

A study for separation and sequential recovery of uranium and plutonium from nitric acid solutions by extraction chromatography using tributyl phosphate (TBP)/Amberlite XAD7 as stationary phase is presented. Distribution ratios of actinides, lanthanides and fission products were obtained. The column capacity was investigated and actinides retention conditions were established. Finally, U-Pu sequential separation was studied as well as the U and Pu recovery yields from nitric solutions containing Am/fission products were determined.
