摘要
A global collaboration is currently developing solvent extraction separations for the nuclear fuel cycle of the future. The goal is to recover fissionable material for recycle, mitigate proliferation concerns, and mitigate the environmental impact of nuclear waste disposal. Relying on selective metal complexing agents, the radiation stability of these solvent extraction ligands will determine the efficiency and recycle lifetime of any solvent intended for use in this high-radiation environment. This paper reviews work at the Idaho National Laboratory regarding the radiation chemistry of nuclear solvent extraction ligands, with particular emphasis on the reactions of nitrogen-centered radicals.
