摘要
The extractive recovery of protactinium from irradiated thorium nitrate as applied to the conditions of the fusion neutron source blanket was studied using n-octanol and diisobutylcarbinol as extractants. The degree of recovery of Pa-233 from a solution of irradiated thorium nitrate (600 g/dm(3)) in 3 M nitric acid in one contact exceeded 80%, and the separation factors from uranium and thorium were higher than 600 and 130000, respectively. To reduce the content of U-232 in U-233 (below 5 ppm), a flowsheet involving short irradiation of thorium nitrate and continuous extractive recovery of protactinium was suggested.
