Abstract

The procedure of studying the extraction process kinetics has been developed. It is established that uranium and plutonium extraction occurs faster than zirconium and ruthenium ones -- mass transfer of which is defined by the slow chemical transformations. It is shown that in some cases one may increase the separation factor of elements by naming the differences in the extraction rates.
