Abstract
The temperature effect on the extraction of uranous nitrate by TBP was notthroughly investigated and there is inconsistency in the published data. Thetemperature effect on the distribution coefficient of U(NO_3)_4 between 30%TBP--kerosene and 1--4 N HNO_3 is studied in this work and the thermodynamicfunctions of the extraction equilibrium are reported when the acidity of theaqueous phase is 1.12m and 2.20m respectively.
