Evaluation of Sorbent/Ion Exchangers for Radiochemical and Metal Separations
CX(s) Applied: B3.6
Date: 06/26/2012
Location(s): South Carolina
Offices(s): Savannah River Operations Office
This research and development activity involves the preparation, characterization and testing of inorganic-based materials for the sorption/ion exchange of radioactive and non-radioactive sorbates from waste and process solutions. New sorbent materials are prepared or received from collaborators and vendors and characterized as needed for chemical and physical properties. Research will also include Extraction-Scrub-Strip (ESS) tests utilizing similar sorbate solutions described above, and an organic caustic side solvent extraction (CSSX) solvent composed of isopar, Cesium-7B modifier, BoBCalix, and trioctylamine.
