Abstract
Extraction of uranyl, La(III), and Y(III) nitrates from aqueous solutions containing 0–4 M sodium nitrate with a composite solid extractant based on a polymeric support impregnated with trialkylamine (C7-C9) was studied. The extraction isotherms were analyzed assuming that La(III), Y(III), and uranyl nitrates are extracted with the solid extractant in the form of complexes (R3NH)3[Ln(NO3)6] and (R3NH)2[UO2(NO3)4], respectively. The extraction constants were calculated. The joint extraction of uranyl and La(III) [Y(III)] nitrates with the solid extractant from aqueous salt solutions was studied. The composite solid extractant based on a polymeric support impregnated with trialkylamine can be used for purification of aqueous solutions of rare-earth metal nitrates to remove uranium impurities.
