Electrolysis of plutonium in neutral and basic solutions

Creators

Description

Experiments were conducted on electrolysis of Pu in waste streams. Removal of Pu by this process is maximum at pH 11. Runs on an actual waste stream showed that: Pu can be electrolyzed from neutral or basic solutions down to 10-10 g/l. Am can also be removed. The removal efficiency is pH dependent. The deposits can be removed by acid leaching
