The extraction and separation of Ce(IV) and Th(IV) from trivalent rare earths (RE, including scandium) in sulfate medium using di(2-ethylhexyl)-N-heptylaminomethylphosphonate (DEHAMP, L) were studied. The effects of H2SO4 concentration, extractant concentration, and temperature on the metal extraction were investigated systematically. It was found that the extraction of metal ions by DEHAMP decreases in the following order: Ce(IV) > Th(IV) > Sc(III) > other RE(III). A possible extraction mechanism was proposed and the extracted complexes as Ce(SO4)2·2L and Th(HSO4)2SO4·L were determined by the slope analysis method. Thermodynamic parameters (ΔH, ΔG, and ΔS) were calculated. The extraction reactions of Ce(IV) and Th(IV) were each exothermic processes. The loaded Ce(IV) and Th(IV) can be stripped efficiently by 3% H2O2 and 4 mol/L HCl, respectively. The extraction capacity of 0.63 mol/L DEHAMP is 30.0 g/L CeO2 and 24.4 g/L ThO2, respectively. Furthermore, a solvent extraction process to selectively extract and recover cerium and thorium from bastnaesite leaching was proposed, by which the purities of cerium and thorium products reached 97.2% and 96.5% with a yield of 85.4% and 98.8%, respectively.

Uranium and thorium of symbiotic relationship commonly appear in one kind of raw or spent ore. The simultaneous enrichment toward both metals in the first step is essential during many hydrometallurgy processing. Therefore bifunctional solid-state ionic liquid supported amidoxime chitosan (ACS) adsorbents were developed to simultaneously adsorb the two metal from the aqueous solution. The adsorption capacity of the bifunctional adsorbents toward uranium and thorium were significantly superior to the ionic liquid-free amidoxime chitosan, obviously proving the synergistic effect. For both uranium and thorium, the adsorption capacity in the consequence of ACS-[N 4444 ][DEHP], ACS-[N 4444 ][EHEHP], ACS-[N 1888 ][DEHP] and ACS-[N 1888 ][EHEHP] prove the steric effect and P O bonding played important roles in the adsorption. Study on isotherms and kinetics demonstrated the adsorption of ionic liquid-ACS adopted monolayer and chemical way. The Δ G o of very small negative values highlighted ionic liquid-ACS were prone to adsorb uranium and thorium. The study showed feasibility of bifunctional solid-state ionic liquid supported amidoxime chitosan adsorbents for Th(IV) and U(VI).

As one of the main radiolysis products of tri-isoamyl phosphate (TiAP) in the spent fuel reprocessing process, di-isoamyl phosphate (DiAP) can lead to a significant deterioration of TiAP in extraction performance. In this context, the effect of DiAP on the extraction and stripping behaviors of U(VI), Th(IV), and Zr(IV) for 1.1 mol/L TiAP/ n -dodecane organic phase was investigated for the first time. It has been shown that DiAP can increase the ability of TiAP to extract metal ions and inhibit the stripping, as well as promote the formation of interfacial deposition. Combined with the results of DLS, FT-IR, 31 P NMR, ESI-MS and elemental analysis, the role of DiAP in the formation of interfacial deposition was also elucidated.

It is challenging to extract Th (IV) and U (VI) from rare earth elements (REEs) in concentrated acidic solution. Herein, a nanoporous polymer adsorbent P (DVB-VPA) bearing phosphonic acid groups has been synthesized by solvothermal copolymerization of divinylbenzene (DVB) and vinylphosphonic acid (VPA). The maximum adsorption capacity (q max ) for Th (IV) and U (VI) onto P (DVB-VPA) was estimated to be 354.6 and 216.5 mg g −1 at 298 K in 4 mol L −1 of hydrogen nitrate media, which were much larger than most of the adsorbents reported previously. Besides, P (DVB-VPA) exhibited a good selectivity for Th (IV) and U (VI) from REEs in concentrated nitric acid solution, since the values of the selectivity for Th (IV) and U (VI) over La (III), Ce (III), Eu (III), Nd (III) and Sm (III) were 82.2% and 72.5%, respectively. XPS analysis revealed that the adsorption mechanism was achieved through the complexation of P O ligands anchored onto the polymer skeleton of P (DVB-VPA) with thorium and uranium. Due to P (DVB-VPA) showed a larger binding force toward Th (IV) than U (VI), both q max and selectivity for Th (IV) in concentrated hydrogen nitrate media was larger than those for U (VI) on P (DVB-VPA), which has been confirmed by DFT calculations.
