Mathematical modeling of extraction of nitric acid, actinides, and fission products into 30% TBP in halogenated diluents using A.M. Rozen’s model

Abstract

The effect of a series of halogenated diluents [bis(octafluoroamyloxy)methane, phenyl trifluoromethyl sulfone, methyl dodecafluoroheptyl ether, m-nitrobenzotrifluoride, hexachlorobutadiene, CHCl₃, CCl₄] on the extraction of spent nuclear fuel solution components [HNO₃, U(VI), An(IV), Zr, and Tc] into 30% TBP was studied and mathematically described using improved A.M. Rozen’s model. Comparison with the TBP–paraffins extraction system was made.
