The distribution ratios of U(VI) and Eu(III) as a function of aqueous HNO3 concentration , extractant concentration in organic phase and temperature as well as the salting-out agent con- centration have been measured. The experiment results show that picolinamide has higher extractability for U(VI) than for Eu(III). The composition of extracted species, equilibrium constants and enthalpies of extraction reaction have also been presented.展开更多

The ISE prepared exhibited a Nernstian response to the Eu3+ concentration in the test solutions in the presence of humic acid and fulvic acid. The effect of the solution conditions, including the pH, initial metal and humic substance concentrations, and ionic strength, on the formation constants was examined. The present formation constants were compared with the reported data using solvent extraction method.展开更多

Then, the adsorption and desorption behaviors were investigated by batch studies. The adsorption performance showed high agreement with the Lagergren-first-order model and Langmuir isotherm with thermodynamic adsorption parameters of ΔH= 36.1 k J/mol and ΔS=200 J/(mol·K). Desorption study revealed that 110-H could be effectively eluted by a low concentration of HCl solution(0.1 mol/L) to regenerate and reuse. Finally, the 110-H and Eu(III) loaded 110-H were characterized by IR spectroscopy and scanning electron microscope(SEM) to analyze the mechanism of adsorption, which proved to be chemisorbed.展开更多
The thermal decomposition reaction of Eu-2(p-MBA)(6)(PHEN)(2) (p-MBA=CH3C6H4COO, methylbenzoate; PHEN=C12H8N2, 1,10-phenanthroline) was studied in a static atmosphere using TG-DTG method.

The thermal decomposition process of the complex was determined and its kinetics was investigated. Kinetic parameters were obtained from the analysis of TG-DTG curves by means of the Achar method and the Madhusudanan-Krishnan-Ninan (MKN) method. The most probable mechanism functions of the thermal decomposition reaction for the first stage are: f(alpha) =(1-alpha)(2), g(alpha) = (1-alpha)(-1)-1. The activation energy for the first stage is 255.18 kJ/mol, the entropy of activation DeltaS is 227.32 J/mol and the Gibbs free energy of activation DeltaG is 128.04 W/mol.展开更多

Within the experimental contact time range of 0.5–24 h, iso Hex-BTP/Si O2-P showed high selectivity for241Am(Ⅲ) compared to152Eu(Ⅲ) in3 mol/dm3 nitric acid solution. However, the adsorption kinetics of241Am(Ⅲ) and152Eu(Ⅲ) was slow. Eu(Ⅲ)adsorption followed the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, indicating chemical adsorption as the rate-limiting step of the adsorption process. And the adsorption agreed well with the Langmuir adsorption model at various temperatures. The adsorption kinetics and isotherm data indicated that the equilibrium adsorption capacity, the adsorption rate, the maximum adsorption capacity and the adsorption affinity, increased with temperature. The thermodynamic parameters, negative change in Gibbs free energy, and positive change in enthalpy and entropy,suggested that the adsorption of Eu(Ⅲ) was spontaneous and endothermic process with an increase of entropy.展开更多
