Mn. Mikheeva et al., KINETICS OF AMERICIUM(VI) MASS-TRANSFER THROUGH SOLID SUPPORTED LIQUID MEMBRANE WITH HDEHP, Journal of radioanalytical and nuclear chemistry, 185(2), 1994, pp. 265-271
The main regularities of membrane extraction of americium under condit
ions of different redox potentials in aqueous phases have been studied
. The physico-chemical model of the process including steps of americi
um oxidation in feed solution, extraction by membrane, partial reducti
on on membrane surface, trans-membrane diffusion and reextraction to s
trip solution has been developed. The calculation of reduction rate co
nstant on membrane surface has been carried out.
