Solvent extraction separation of trivalent lanthanide and actinide ions using an aqueous aminomethanediphosphonic acid.

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

The possibility of separating the trivalent lanthanides, represented by EU{sup 3+}, and actinides, represented by Cf{sup 3+}, using HDEHP in toluene and an aqueous phase containing N-piperidinomethane-1,1-diphosphotic acid, PMDPA, has been investigated. This modified aqueous phase offers potential advantages over the diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid based TALSPEAK process because of the improved complexation properties of PMDPA in acidic solutions, and the ability to decompose PMDPA before disposal. Extraction experiments were conducted at 25 C in 2 M NaClO{sub 4} between -log [H{sup +}] 1 and 2. The studies enabled us to derive the aqueous phase speciation, the stability constants of the aqueous … continued below

Extraction experiments were conducted at 25 C in 2 M NaClO{sub 4} between -log [H{sup +}] 1 and 2. The studies enabled us to derive the aqueous phase speciation, the stability constants of the aqueous complexes, and the Cf/Eu separation factors. Despite the presence of an amino group in PMDPA that should favor the retention of the actinides in the aqueous phase, the Cf/Eu separation factors are near unity under the conditions studied.
