Laboratory Development of the Acid Thorex Process for Recovery of Consolidated Edison Thorium Reactor Fuel
Description:
The id Thorex process, in which nitric acid is the salting'' agent in the solvent extraction of Th and U from an acid eficient feed with TBP in Amsco, was demonstrated in laboratory equipment for the recovery of synthetic Co solidated Edison Thorium Reactor fuel containing trace fission products. The acid was removed from solution of the declad fuel pellets to produce an acid deficient feed by steam stripping, and the adjusted feed was treated with bisulfite to decrease the extractability of fi…
