Strong base macroreticular anion exchange resins (e.g., Amberlyεt A-26) remove fission products, dibutyl phosphoric acid, and diluent degradation products from used TBP extractants. Application of these resins in routine cleanup of such solvents is potentially attractive to eliminate or, at least, minimize the large volumes of radioactive Maste gene¬rated by presently used solvent wash procedures.
