National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

New Class of Solvents for TRU Dissolution and Separation: Ionic Liquids.

DE2005841379

Publication Date	2005
Personal Author	Rogers, R. D.
Page Count	26
Abstract	The proposed research aims to address some of the challenges facing current thrusts in nuclear waste treatment and remediation by understanding and controlling IL properties at the level of cation and anion interactions for the ultimate development and demonstration of viable IL-based technologies for targeted metal ion separations. This research will provide necessary fundamental information on the factors that facilitate/inhibit competing solvent extraction or cation/anion exchange mechanisms for metal ion partitioning with respect to tank wastes by understanding the influence of the IL components on metal ion coordination environments versus traditional molecular solvents.
Keywords	Radioactive waste processing Separation process Solvents Liquid wastes Solvent extraction Anions Dissolution Cations Ion exchange Hazardous materials Organic solvents Ionic liquids
