Description

The growth in the world's nuclear industry has resulted in a heightened focus on the need for next-generation nuclear fuel-cycle technologies. This volume provides a comprehensive look at the state of the science underlying solvent extraction in its role as the most powerful separation technique for the reprocessing of commercial spent nuclear fuel. The book explores selective extractions, third-phase formation, the effects of intense radiation upon the solvent, analytical techniques to measure process concentrations, new types of centrifugal contactors, and new chemistry that may offer the potential for further advances in the future.
