RECOVERY OF Np$sup 237$ AND Pu$sup 238$ FROM IRRADIATED NEPTUNIUM OXIDE

Abstract

An ion exchange process was demonstrated for the recovery of Pu/sup 238/ from irradiated neptunium oxide. Three cycles of anion exchange proved adequate for the removal of fission products and for the separation of the neptunium and plutonium from each other. (auth)
