A process for the separation of the actinides and lanthanides present in the trivalent state in an acid aqueous solution, wherein the actinides present in such aqueous solution are extracted selectively in an organic solvent by bringing the solution into contact with an organic solvent comprising a first extracting agent formed by an organic bonding agent having an electron-donor nitrogen atom and a second extracting agent formed by an acid organosoluble organic compound able to exchange its H.sup.+ ions for metal ions or by metallic salt of such compound.Application to the nuclear industry, inter alia in the field of the treatment of aqueous effluents containing lanthanides and actinides, such an transuranic elements.
摘要:
This invention relates to a process of recovering trivalent actinides, trivalent lanthanides or mixtures thereof from an aqueous acid solution by contacting the aqueous solution with an organic solution containing the diamides of the formula: ##STR1## where R is C.sub.2 -C.sub.10 alkyl. This process affords a good extraction efficiency level for the recovery of lanthanides and actinides, both of which are present in the trivalent state, or mixtures thereof, from installations for the reprocessing of irradiated nuclear fuels.

The invention relates to a process for the selective extraction of (III) actinides by means of amides having a nitrogenous heterocyclic substituent of formula: ##STR1## in which R.sup.1 is an alkyl or alkoxy group or a hydrogen atom, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, which can be the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an alkoxy group and R.sup.4 is a hydrogen atom or a group of formula: ##STR2## in which R.sup.5 and R.sup.6, which can be the same or different, represent a hydrogen atom or an alkyl or alkoxy group. This process makes it possible to separate (III) actinides from (III) lanthanides.

A method for the separation of actinides from lanthanides present in a trivalent state in an acidic aqueous solution.Said method consists in selectively extracting in an organic solvent the actinides present in said solution, by bringing said aqueous solution into contact with an organic solvent comprising a system of extractants constituted by an acidic organo-phosphorated compound containing at least one electron doner sulfur atom such as di-2-ethylhexyl-dithio-phosphoric acid, and by a neutral organophosphorated compound containing at least one electron-doner oxygen atom such as tributyl phosphate.

The invention relates to a process for separating iron and/or zirconium from the actinides and/or lanthanides present in an aqueous acid solution by means of a propane diamide.According to the invention, use is made of a pentasubstituted propane diamide of formula: ##STR1## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3, which can be the same or different, are alkyl radicals, which can have 1 or 2 oxygen atoms in their chain.To maintain the iron in aqueous solution, a choice is made of an appropriate propane diamide of formula (I) with R.sup.3 representing a C.sub.12 to C.sub.25 alkyl in order to have different extraction kinetics between Fe and the actinides or lanthanides, or an additive is added to the aqueous solution, e.g. oxalic acid or sodium nitrate.

Process for the separation of americium from curium contained in an aqueous nitric solution, wherein the initial solution undergoes oxidation at ambient temperature in the presence of phosphoric acid or phosphate ions at a concentration at the most equal to 0.1 mol per liter in such a way as to pass the americium at valency VI, the thus treated solution is brought into contact with a slightly reducing organic solvent having a high affinity for americium at valency VI in such a way as to extract the americium in the organic phase, the organic phase containing the americium at valency VI is then washed, followed by the re-extraction of the americium in the organic phase by means of an aqueous solution.

The invention relates to a process for the separation of actinides from lanthanides by the selective extraction of the actinides in an organic solvent incorporating a propane diamide.This process consists of adding to the aqueous nitric solution containing the actinides and lanthanides a thiocyanate, e.g. ammonium thiocyanate, followed by the contacting of said solution with an organic solvent incorporating at least one propane diamide, e.g. 2-tetradecyl-N,N'-dimethyl-N,N'-dibutyl-propane diamide and optionally a quaternary ammonium salt such as trilauryl methyl ammonium (TMA) thiocyanate or a mixture of quaternary ammonium thiocyanates.This leads to distribution coefficients D.sub.M for the actinides (Am) and the lanthanides (Eu, Ce) making it possible to achieve high actinide/lanthanide separation factors.
