Studies on the separation treatment of high-level liquid waste by bisamide podand(Ⅰ):Extraction and separation of An(Ⅲ)from Ln(Ⅲ)

摘要

A process for actinide(Ⅲ)and lanthanum(Ⅲ)extraction separation from high-level liquid waste(HLLW)was proposed,with N,N,N’,N’-tetraoctyl diglycolamide(TODGA)as the extractant,tri-n–butyl phosphate(TBP)as the phase modifier and 2,6-bis[1-(propan-1-ol)-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]pyridine(PyTri-Diol or PTD)as hydrophilic stripping agent.This‘hot test’was successfully carried out,achieving 99.92%removal of americium-241(^(241)Am)with a separation factor SF(Eu/Am)of 3.8×10^(3)in the actinide(Ⅲ)product solution.The results show that bisamide podand extractants can effectively realize the extraction and separation of actinide(Ⅲ)and lanthanum(Ⅲ)from Chinese commercial HLLW and thus have a bright practical application potential for the treatment of commercial HLLW.
