Abstract

The chemical uranium isotope separation, that is ultra multistage process using adsorptiondesorption reactions, was studied in the temperature range 60-133°C in hydrochloric acid. It was cleared that the activation energy of the equilibrium height (Hq) was very close to that of electron exchange reaction rate (ket) between U4+ and UO22+ under these conditions, and the observed Hq was found to be about one order smaller than theoretical value evaluated from ket, in hydrochloric solution. The experimental studies suggest that the electron exchange reaction in the ion exchanger might be about one order faster than that in solution.
