2019-12-7 Once the thorium and uranium are separated from the bulk mass, an anion exchange column was used for a more selective separation. Anion exchange was chosen rather than cation exchange because thorium tends to bind irreversibly to cation exchange resins due to slow kinetics and an extremely high distribution coefficient.
Read MoreA simple and direct ion-exchange method has been suggested for the separation of uranium from thorium. Both the elements are absorbed by the resin (Amberlite lR) from which uranium can be eluted first with 1.70 M hydrochloric acid. After neutralizing the acid by running ammonia solution through the resin column, thorium is eluted with l.1 M ...

It was found that uranium could be separated well from rare earths in HCl and possibly H 2 SO 4 solutions . However, it is difficult to separate uranium from thorium.

Read More2020-11-1 According to a review study performed by Zhu et al. (2015), the removal of uranium and thorium from rare earths is typically achieved via solvent extraction or precipitation. In comparison to solvent extraction, precipitation takes advantage of different precipitation pH of thorium, uranium, and rare earths to achieve the separation.

Batch experiments were conducted and the separation factor of thorium and uranium in 9 M nitric acid was about 10. Ion exchange chromatography was applied to separate thorium and uranium in different ratios.
