PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR REGENERATING SPENT REPROCESSING EXTRACTION SOLVENT

摘要

Cations and anions contained as impurities in a spent organic solvent can be removed by an alkaline aqueous solution passing through inside of hydrophobic porous membrane such as hollow fibers for capturing anions and by an acidic aqueous solution passing through inside of hydrophobic porous membrane such as hollow fibers for capturing cations at the same time so as to regenerate the organic solvent. An apparatus suitable for removing cations and anions simultaneously from the spent organic solvent is also provided.
