Back-extraction of major actinides from organic phase through precipitation by Réaux-Durain, Julie, Mortada, Boushra, Bertrand, Murielle, Maynadié, Jérôme, Carboni, Michaël, Meyer, Daniel, Bourgeois, Damien

“…With the aim of reducing the number of steps required for recycling U and Pu, the possibility of precipitating them directly from the organic phase (also referred to as precipitation stripping) using oxalic acid, is investigated herein. For practical reasons, proof-of-concept studies were performed using U(VI) and Th(IV), with the latter serving as a first model for Pu(IV). …”

A Conceptual Framework for Mentorship Support to Early-Career Black Women Academics in South Africa by Maréve Biljohn, Tatenda Shaleen Marange, Aliza le Roux, Kathleen Schroeder

“…While structural and systemic challenges contribute to this, a lack of formal mentorship support for Black women academics is among the underlying reasons. Against this background, using various mentorship models applied in higher education institutions as the theoretical lens, this article explores a conceptual framework for mentorship support to early-career Black women academics, which will often happen in a cross-cultural context due to historical imbalances. …”
