| Abstract: | Suitable N.N'-tetraalkylmalonamldes for Am(III) extraction from concentrated HNO3 aqueous liquors have been selected. Extraction mechanisms of Eu(III) and Am(III) by NN'-dlmethyldioctylmalonamide (DMDOMA) have been investigated. The distributions ratios of Am(III) and Eu(III) between 1M DMDOMA in t-butylbenzene and per chloric acid are higher than those obtained In nitrate media. Extraction data for Pu)IV), U(VI), Fe(III), Zr(IV) are reported. From these results It can be concluded that the NN'-dlmethyldlal-kylmalonamldes are good extractants for the actinides contained in the radioactive wastes. |
