Description

Extraction behavior of uranium (VI) from sulphuric acid medium using PC-88A (H2A2, dimer form) and a mixture of PC-88A + TOPO in n-dodecane has been investigated. The extraction data have been used to develop a mathematical model correlating percentage extraction (%E) with PC-88A and TOPO concentration. It can be used to predict the steady-state concentrations of metal ion under the conditions of the present work. (author)
