Abstract

The distribution of nitric acid and uranyl nitrate between aqueous solution and 7.5 vol percent tributyl phosphate in normal paraffin diluent was measured at 23, 45, and 60$sup 0$C. The data are consistent with behavior expected from theory and with previously published data. The data have been used to design a solvent extraction flowsheet for recovery of enriched uranium.
