Radiochemistry Aims and scope

Abstract

The behavior of the two-phase system consisting of a 30% solution of tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) in a paraffin diluent (C13) and a 12 M aqueous HNO3 solution was studied in the temperature interval from 70 to 110°С. The parameters of thermolysis of TBP solutions in C13 in the reaction with HNO3 in open vessels were determined with the aim of evaluating the explosion hazard of the system in the course of extraction reprocessing of high-level radioactive materials. Solutions of TBP in C13 in the two-phase systems are characterized in the examined temperature interval by more intense gas evolution compared to that from the singlephase systems.
