Abstract

The invention discloses a method for separating trivalent actinide and lanthanide ions based on the synergistic effect. Fat-soluble dithiophosphiic acid is used as an extracting agent and is diluted with a diluent to form an organic phase, and the organic phase and an aqueous phase are subjected to an extraction reaction, wherein the aqueous phase is an acidic aqueous solution containing the trivalent actinide and lanthanide ions, and a water-soluble organic weak acid complexing agent is added into the acidic aqueous solution. The trivalent actinide and lanthanide ions are extracted through the synergistic effect of the extracting agent and the complexing agent, the volume ratio of the organic phase to the aqueous phase is 0.2-2, and the pH value of the acidic aqueous solution is 2-4. Themethod is good in separation performance, good in stability and easy and convenient to operate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of nuclear fuel cycle and radioactive waste liquid treatment, and specifically relates to a method for separating trivalent actinide and lanthanide ions based on a synergistic effect. Background technique [0002] A large amount of radioactive waste is generated during the nuclear fuel cycle. At present, both in the development of nuclear weapons and in the application of civilian nuclear energy, a large amount of high-level radioactive liquid waste is left behind, and it is imminent to properly solve the problem of its disposal. [0003] The "separation-transmutation" method is an advanced strategy for treating high-level waste liquid, that is, the chemical separation method is used to selectively separate the actinide elements, which account for a small proportion but are highly toxic, from the high-level waste liquid. Accelerators or reactors convert it into stable or short-lived nuclides, and the residu...
