Problems solved by technology

[0003] The uranium purification and conversion production line using U3O8 as raw material is a relatively mature process. When the raw material is replaced with ADU as the raw material for uranium purification and conversion production, it is bound to produce acidic uranium-containing and ammonium nitrate-containing wastewater, which is processed by the existing extraction method. Dealing with unsatisfactory needs

Abstract

The invention provides a method for recycling uranium from acidic waste water containing ammonium nitrate and the uranium. The method comprises the following steps that 1, the acidic waste water which contains the ammonium nitrate and the uranium and is obtained through uranium purification conversion is mixed with a sodium hydroxide solution, so that extraction primary liquid with the acidity ranging from 0.3 mol / L to 0.8 mol / L is obtained; 2, extraction is conducted on the obtained extraction primary liquid and a TBP-hydrogenized kerosene extraction agent with the volume percentage being 20-40%, wherein the two-phase flow ratio of the extraction agent to the extraction primary liquid is 1: (3-5); and 3, after extraction is completed, a loaded organic phase can be sent to a uranium purification conversion extraction procedure to be used as an extraction agent for extracting pulse columns, sampling analysis is conducted on a raffinate phase obtained after extraction, if the uranium content is less than or equal to 50 micrograms / L, the operation is returned to step 1 to be used for compounding the sodium hydroxide solution with the mass percentage being 30-50%, and if the uranium content is greater than 50 micrograms / L, the operation is returned to step 1, wherein a product is treated as waste water again. By means of the method, technological parameters are determined reasonably; the waste water treatment technology is optimized; the method is used for conducting uranium recycling treatment on the acidic waste water containing the ammonium nitrate and the uranium technologically; and the uranium yield is 99% or above all the time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of uranium-containing wastewater treatment, in particular to a method for recovering uranium in acidic ammonium nitrate-containing uranium-containing wastewater. Background technique [0002] Uranium-containing wastewater treatment mainly includes evaporation concentration method, precipitation method, adsorption method, ion exchange method, membrane treatment method, extraction method, magnetic molecular method, and ion flotation method. Among them, the methods that have been widely used in industry mainly include evaporation concentration method, precipitation method, adsorption method, ion exchange method and extraction method. The evaporation and concentration method is not suitable for treating waste water containing volatile nuclides and foaming easily. It consumes a lot of heat energy and has high operating costs. At the same time, potential threats such as corrosion, scaling, and explosion must be co...
