PREFACE

Actinide separation techniques and methods play a very important role in analysis
and production of nuclear materials, reprocessing of nuclear fuels, nuclear waste
management, and other aspects of the nuclear fuel cycle. Professionals from several
disciplines-analytical chemists, chemical engineers, process chemists, etc.-make
much use of this technology.
This Symposium has been organized about new concepts, new systems, and new
developments in actinide separations methodology. Much of the work reported here
is based on fundamental actinide chemistry developed since the Manhattan Project
days. The chapters in this volume describe ion exchange, solvent extraction,
precipitation, pyrochemical, photochemical, and other methods of actinide
separations as well as application of these separation methods to power reactor
fuel reprocessing and recovery of actinides from waste solutions.
The purpose of this Symposium has been to bring together information concerning
actinide recovery, partition, and purification on an international basis from various
disciplines and viewpoints. The result of this interchange, it is hoped, will be to
spark ideas for improvement and development of new separation techniques and
methods for all aspects of actinide technology.
