Database on the extraction of zirconium and technetium, present separately and simultaneously, into 30% TBP is presented. With increasing temperature, the distribution ratio of Zr without Tc increases, and that of Tc without Zr decreases; however, because of the coextraction, the temperature dependence of the distribution ratios of these elements, present simultaneously, is leveled off. In the presence of uranyl nitrate, the effect of Tc on the extraction of Zr is preserved, whereas the effect of Zr on the extraction of Tc decreases to fully disappear in the case of the solvent saturation with uranyl nitrate. The interactions in the system are described within the framework of a new approach to modeling using five additional chemical equations. Their apparent equilibrium constants and coefficients of the temperature dependence are determined. The temperature coefficients are determined for the constants of six previously introduced equations of the extraction of zirconium and technetium, including the extraction in the presence of uranyl nitrate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
