Abstract

Agents for uranium stripping from a 30% solution of TBP in decane, loaded with 110–116 g/L uranium, were studied. The uranyl nitrate solubility in ammonium acetate and formate solutions was studied. The uranium distribution ratio as a function of the concentrations of ammonium acetate and formate was determined. Comparative trials of the suggested stripping agents were performed. Ammonium acetate and formate were shown to be suitable for uranium stripping.
