Abstract
The possibility of palladium recovery from nitric acid solutions simultaneously with the in situ synthesis of iron(III) hexacyanoferrate(II) (HCF) was studied. The molar ratio of the reagents Pd : PFC : Fe(III) = 1 : 2 : 2 (PFC is potassium ferrocyanide) was found to provide complete palladium recovery in the range of nitric acid concentrations of 1–5 M. Almost all cesium and significant amounts of molybdenum and silver are separated from the solution, simulating HLW from spent nuclear fuel reprocessing.
