However, while nuclear energy has made great contributions to mankind, it has also produced a large amount of radioactive waste, which poses direct or potential hazards to human development and the environment. Therefore, the proper treatment and disposal of radioactive waste has become an issue that all countries pay special attention to, and it is also one of the key factors affecting the sustainable development of nuclear energy. The safe treatment and disposal of high-level radioactive liquid waste (HLLW) is the key to the treatment and disposal of radioactive waste.
[0003] Solvent extraction is the most commonly used separation method for extracting and separating rare earth elements, and separating and recovering lanthanide and actinide elements in the nuclear industry. Solvent extraction utilizes the different solubility of complexes of different lanthanide ions and actinide ions in the organic phase and the aqueous phase, resulting in different distribution coefficients, to extract various rare earth ions.

[0107] 2.3 Three types of tests:
[0108] 2.3.1 Acidity test to determine the effect of nitric acid concentration on distribution ratio and SF Eu / Am impact.
[0109] For all ligands, acidity studies were performed at 0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.5 M nitric acid, with a standard concentration of 10 mM.
[0110] 2.3.2 Kinetic studies to determine the kinetics of the extraction process.
[0111] The aqueous phase contained a constant concentration of ligand (10 mM) and 0.75 M nitric acid, and the test was performed at intervals of 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min.
[0112] 2.3.3 Ligand concentration extraction studies to determine the effect of ligand concentration on partition ratio and SF Eu / Am The acidity is constant at 0.75M nitric acid.
[0113] HP-DAPhen: 2.5, 5, 10, 20 and 25 mM;
[0114] DHP-DAPhen: 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 25 and 30 mM;
[0115] AE-DAPhen: 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 25, 30 and 40 mM;
[0116] AEE-DAPhen: 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 25 and 30 mM.
[0117] Each 1 mL of aqueous phase and 1 mL of organic phase were mixed in a PP vial, shaken using a vortex oscillator (standard 30 min), and then centrifuged (3000 rpm, 2 min) to completely separate the two phases. Samples from the aqueous and organic phases were then collected, and the radioactivity in different channels was counted using LSC, which could distinguish the α radioactivity of 241Am and the β radioactivity of 152Eu / 154Eu. To ensure the accuracy of the data, each sample was measured for at least 5 min. The count ratios in the two phases were then interpreted as the extraction parameters D Am and D Eu , while SF Eu / Am Then calculate D Eu / D Am Compare.
