Abstract

The method to study the mechanism of actinides (III) and lanthanides (III) liquid-liquid amine extraction from chloride media has been suggested. The technique is based on the determination of distribution coefficients for extraction of these elements from mixed salting-out agent solutions with common anion. Distribution coefficients were found to be independent of mean ion activity of lithium cation at constant water activity, when extraction of trace amounts of Eu (III) and Cm(III) by tri-n-octylammonium hydrochloride from mixed LiCl−CaCl2 solutions occurred. It has been concluded that lithium cation does not enter into the complexed extracted.
