Understanding the affinity of Cyphos Nitrate for Zr(IV) over other metal ions present in simulated high level liquid waste compositions by Alok Rout, S. Sriram, N. Ramanathan

“…In this context, we employed a strongly hydrophobic and sustainable quarternary alkyl phosphonium-based ionic liquid (IL): Tri(hexyl)tetradecylphosphonium nitrate ([P66614][NO3]) (or cyphos nitrate) for the extraction of Zr(IV) from a broad range of acidic feed and evaluated the feasibility of its selective separation from a Fast Reactor Simulated High Level Liquid Waste (FR-SHLLW) solution (Burn up: 80 GWd/Te). The extraction factor of [P66614][NO3] was compared with that observed in other classes of ILs in their undiluted condition. …”
