AbstractAbstract
[en] Octylphenyl acid phosphate (OPAP) is a commercially available mixture of monooctylphenyl phosphoric acid (MOPPA) and dioctylphenyl phosphoric acid (DOPPA) that is used to extract UIV from wet-process phosphoric acid. The uranium extraction coefficient and the organic phase iron loading were not affected by changes in the organic phase composition due to hydrolysis of the extractant or by different MOPPA/DOPPA ratios in two OPAP batches. The effect of aqueous phase composition was studied in a factorial design test and also by varying the concentrations of the components individually over a range typical of their concentrations in wet-process phosphoric acid. Uranium extraction was decreased by increasing the concentrations of total phosphate, ferric iron, hydrofluoric acid, or total sulfate, and increased by increasing the concentrations of aluminum, magnesium, or silicon. 6 refs

AbstractAbstract
[en] Recovery of uranium (VI) from a phosphoric acid obtained by wet process by means of liquid-liquid extraction. The impure acid is first treated by an initial extractive organic phase comprising a dialkylphosphoric acid, a trialkylphosphine oxide and an inert diluter that becomes charged with uranium. It is treated with an aqueous solution of phosphoric acid containing iron ions (II) which extract the uranium (IV). The phases are then separated and the organic phase exhausted when the impure acid is extracted is recycled. In the second cycle, the previous aqueous phase is treated, after oxidation, by a second extractive phase comprising an inert diluter and a dialkylphosphoric acid. After the phases have been separated, an uranium exhausted aqueous phase and an uranium charged organic phase are obtained. The characteristic of this improvement is that this second uranium charged extractive organic phase is washed in a phosphoric acid aqueous solution free of iron issuing from an aqueous wash of the extractive organic phase of the first cycle, between the extraction stage of the impure acid and the uranium re-extraction stage and after it has been concentrated

Recuperation de l'uranium (VI) d'un acide phosphorique obtenu par le procede de voie humide au moyen d'extractions liquide-liquide. Dans un premier cycle on traite l'acide impur au moyen d'une premiere phase organique extractive comprenant un acide dialkylphosphorique, un oxyde de trialkylphosphine et un diluant inerte, qui se charge en uranium, on la traite par une solution aqueuse d'acide phosphorique contenant des ions fer (II) qui extrait l'uranium (IV), puis on separe les phases et on recycle la phase organique epuisee a l'extraction de l'acide impur. Dans un deuxieme cycle, on traite la phase aqueuse precedente, apres oxydation, au moyen d'une deuxieme phase extractive comprenant un diluant inerte et un acide dialkylphosphorique; on obtient, apres separation des phases, une phase aqueuse epuisee en uranium et une phase organique chargee en uranium. Le perfectionnement est caracterise en ce que cette deuxieme phase organique extractive chargee en uranium est lavee au moyen d'une solution aqueuse d'acide phosphorique exempt de fer, provenant d'un lavage aqueux de la phase organique extractive du premier cycle entre l'etape d'extraction de l'acide impur et l'etape de reextraction de l'uranium et apres l'avoir concentreOriginal Title

AbstractAbstract
[en] A process is claimed for recovering uranium from a uranium-containing acid leach solution, consisting of extraction of the uranium leach solution with an organic extractant solution containing a pyrophosphoric dialkyl ester, a diluent and a solubilizing agent for uranium-ammonium pyrophosphoric dialkyl ester double salt in at least a proportion of 0.5 mole per mole of the above pyrophosphoric dialkyl ester

AbstractAbstract
[en] Weak electrolyte transport in nanochannels or nanopores has been actively explored in recent experiments. In this paper, we establish a new electrokinetic model where the ionization balance effect of weak electrolytes is outlined, and performed numerical calculations for H3PO4 concentration-biased nanochannel systems. By considering the roles of local chemical equilibrium in phosphorous acid ionization, the simulation results show quantitative agreement with experimental observations. Based on the model, we predict that enhanced energy harvesting capacity could be accomplished by utilizing weak electrolytes compared to the conventional strong electrolyte approaches in a concentration gradient-based power-generating system.

AbstractAbstract
[en] In this article the different extraction processes are reviewed. Solvents used are generally phosphoric acid esters, sometimes associated with other phosphorus compounds. The three main industrial processes are TOPO-D2EHPA, MOPPA-DOPPA and OPPA named after the solvent used. Kinetics, synergism and mechanisms are examined. The influence of different parameters is given: extractant, phosphoric acid and uranium concentration, temperature dependence, diluant, impurities (mainly iron), oxidation and reduction. Industrial development and economy are briefly presented

AbstractAbstract
[en] Uranium is commonly recovered from wet-process phosphoric acid by a solvent extraction process using phosphoric acid esters. If the acid raffinate returned to the phosphoric acid plant contains significant amounts of organic solvents damage to rubber tubing and other acid plant equipment could result. A process has been devised for removing residual organic solvent entrained in the raffinate. The raffinate is passed into an inclined tank which contains several plates attached perpendicular to the upper casing of the tank and therefore also inclined. Droplets of solvent separate from the raffinate, flow upward along the lower surface of the plates and the inner surface of the upper casing, and accumulate as a separate layer on the surface of the raffinate

AbstractAbstract
[en] Uranium is conventionally recovered from wet-process phosphoric acid by two liquid ion exchange steps using a mixture of mono- and disubstituted phenyl esters of orthophosphoric acid (OPPA). Efficiency of the process drops as the mono-OPPA is lost preferentially to the aqueous phase. This invention provides a process for the removal of the uranium process organics (OPPA and organic solvents) from the raffinate of the first liquid ion exchange step and their return to the circuit. The process organics are removed by a combination flotation and absorption step, which results in the recovery of the organics on beads of a hydrophobic styrene polymer

AbstractAbstract
[en] In the processes for recovery of uranium as a byproduct of phosphoric acid production the following ions are effective: Fe2+, Fe3+, PO3-, Al3+, F-, Ca2+, SO42-. On the other hand, Fe2+/Fe3+, U4+/U6+ ratios and total oxidant consumption of the acid are also very important factors. In this study the above mentioned variables were determined in phosphoric acid samples obtained from Samsun Fertilizer Plant of Turkish Nitrogen Industries Corporation. (author)
