Abstract

The kinetics of solvent extraction of U(VI) with di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (HDEHP) using a microporous hydrophobic hollow fiber membrane extractor has been investigated. The effects of U(VI) and hydrogen ion concentrations in aqueous phase, HDEHP concentration in organic phase, flow velocities of aqueous and organic phase and temperature on extraction rate of U(VI) were examined. The experimental results suggest that the extraction rate of U(VI) is controlled by diffusion.
