Abstract

The separation of the trivalent metal ions Am(III) and Eu(III) by extraction chromatography employing TBP impregnated macroporous XAD-4 resin as the stationary phase was examined; some parameters affecting the distribution ratio (Kd) and the column resolution (Rs) of Am(III) and Eu(III) were investigated. These parameters are the effect of TBP loading, aqueous nitrate concentrations, and flow rate. Both Kd andRs increase with the TBP loading.
