A study for separation and sequential recovery of uranium and plutoniu
m from nitric acid solutions by extraction chromatography using tribut
yl phosphate (TBP)/Amberlite XAD7 as stationary phase is presented. Di
stribution ratios of actinides, lanthanides and fission products were
obtained. The column capacity was investigated and actinides retention
conditions were established. Finally, U-Pu sequential separation was
studied as well as the U and Pu recovery yields from nitric solutions
containing Am/fission products were determined.
