Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for extracting U (VI) ions and / or Pu (IV) ions present in an acidic aqueous solution using N, N-dialkylamides.
  • One of the usual practices for reprocessing spent nuclear fuel is to first dissolve the combustible material in a nitric solution, then treat this solution by extraction with an organic solvent to separate the uranium and plutonium from the fission products and then separate the uranium from the plutonium.
  • an organic solvent generally consisting of tributyl phosphate is generally used, and the uranium is then separated from the plutonium extracted in the organic solvent by contacting the latter with an aqueous nitric solution. containing reducing agents to reduce plutonium (IV) to plutonium (III) and pass it through the aqueous solution.
  • the reducing agents usually used such as iron valence (II), uranium valence (IV) or hydroxylamine (NH 2 0H) are not stable in the presence of nitric acid because they tend to to be oxidized by it.
  • an anti-nitrite agent such as hydrazine (NH 2 -NH 2 ) is added to the nitric solution.
  • nitric solution also contains technetium, which is generally the case, because tributyl phosphate also extracts a significant part of the technetium present in the solutions for dissolving irradiated nuclear fuels.
  • technetium catalyzes the oxidation of hydrazine by nitric acid, thus preventing hydrazine from playing its role of stabilizing the reducing agents of Pu (IV). Because of this, an oxidation of the reducing agents also occurs, thus preventing the reduction of the plutonium and therefore its re-extraction in the aqueous solution.
  • the present invention specifically relates to the use of new N, N-dialkylamides for ex milking the uranium and / or plutonium present in the nitric solutions originating from the reprocessing of irradiated nuclear fuels, which overcomes the aforementioned drawback.
  • the process according to the invention for extracting uranium (VI) and / or plutonium (IV) from an organic phase present in an acidic aqueous solution by bringing this solution into contact with this organic phase is characterized by that the organic phase comprises an inert diluent and at least one extractant consisting of an N, N-dialkylamide of formula: in which R 1 is a linear or branched alkyl radical of 2 to 12 carbon atoms, R 2 and R 4 which may be the same or different are linear or branched alkyl radicals of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, R 3 and R 5 which may be identical or different are linear or branched alkyl radicals of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and a and b which may be identical or different are whole numbers ranging from 1 to 6.
  • radicals R 2 and R 4 both represent the ethyl radical.
  • N, N-dialkylamides it is possible to obtain a solubility of the uranium complexes of at least 100 g of uranium per liter of organic phase, which is sufficient on an industrial scale.
  • N, N-dialkylamides used in the invention can be prepared according to conventional methods by reaction of the acid chloride of formula: with the secondary amine of formula: in which R i , R 2 , R 3 , R4, R5, a and b have the meaning given above.
  • the starting secondary amines can also be prepared by conventional methods, for example by reaction of the corresponding alcohols of formula: with ammonia. In this case, a mixture of primary, secondary and tertiary amines is formed and the desired secondary amine can be separated by fractional distillation.
  • N, N-dialkylamides of the invention corresponds to the following reaction scheme:
  • the product obtained is then purified by distillation under reduced pressure and generally 99% pure amides are obtained.
  • dialkylamides of the invention for the treatment of aqueous solutions containing simultaneously uranium (VI) and plutonium (IV) is very advantageous since it is possible by adjusting the acidity of the starting aqueous solution, which is usually a nitric solution, i.e. extract simultaneously the ura nium (VI) and plutonium (IV), or selectively extract the uranium (VI) leaving the plutonium (IV) in aqueous solution without the need to use reducing agents.
  • a nitric solution i.e. extract simultaneously the ura nium (VI) and plutonium (IV)
  • the acidity of the aqueous solution is regulated to a value of at least 2N to simultaneously extract uranium (VI) and plutonium (IV) in the organic phase.
  • the acidity of the latter is adjusted to a value of 3 to 10 N in order to obtain the best plutonium and uranium extraction rates in the organic phase.
  • the acidity of the aqueous solution is adjusted to a value of 0.5 to 1.2 N to selectively extract the uranium (VI) in the organic phase.
  • an N, N-dialkylamide is used in which the radical R 1 is a branched alkyl radical.
  • an N, N-dialkylamide is preferably used in which the radical R i is a linear alkyl radical.
  • the concentration of N, N-dialkylami- of the organic phase is preferably from 0.2 to 2 moi.1- 1.
  • the extraction rate generally increases with the concentration of N, N-dialkylamide in the organic phase.
  • the N, N-dialkylamide content of the organic phase is generally limited to a value of 1.5 mol.1-1.
  • the diluents which can be used in the invention are inert organic diluents preferably having a low dielectric constant.
  • diluents examples include benzene, xylene, mesitylene, tert-butylbenzene, decanol and aliphatic hydrocarbons, in particular linear or branched saturated hydrocarbons.
  • an aliphatic hydrocarbon is used as diluent, in particular a saturated linear or branched hydrocarbon such as dodecane, for example the product sold under the brand Hyfran because, as we have seen previously, the use of such diluents provides many advantages.
  • the method of the invention can be implemented in any conventional extraction apparatus such as batteries of mixer-settlers, pulsed columns, centrifugal extractors, etc.
  • aqueous phase / organic phase volume ratios which can vary from 10 to 0.1.
  • the uranium (VI) and plutonium (IV) extracted in the organic phase can then be recovered with very good yield at room temperature by contacting the organic solvent with dilute nitric acid for uranium (VI ) (0 to 0.2N) and more concentrated nitric acid for Pu (IV) (0.5 to 1.5N).
  • N, N-dialkylamides are not very troublesome whereas, in the case of tributyl phosphate, it is not the same since they generally precipitate.
  • N, N-dialkylamides can be destroyed by incineration, giving only gaseous waste, while tributyl phosphate gives phosphoric acid as the main waste.
  • N, N-dialkylamides allow the uranium (VI) to be separated directly from the plutonium (IV), whereas in the case of tributyl phosphate, it is necessary to use reducing agents such as hydrazine and hydroxylamine.
  • N, N-dialkylamides makes it easy to separate zirconium from uranium (VI) and plutonium (IV), which was not the case with tributyl phosphate.
  • N, N-dialkylamides of the invention do not pose any particular problem and they can thus be manufactured at attractive prices.
