Automation of membrane based solvent extraction for Zr and Hf separation
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2015)
In recent years, research into metal ion extraction using hollow fibre membranes has grown, focussing on the extraction of a wide range of metals including base, transition, and rare earth metals. This non dispersive solvent ...
The speciation and solvent extraction of zirconium and hafnium : a computational and experimental approach
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2015)
Zirconium and hafnium have important applications within the nuclear industry, where zirconium is used to clad the uranium fuel rod tubes that are used during nuclear reactions and hafnium is used in the control rods which ...
