Abstract: "The effects of acidity on extraction of vanadium and molybdenum by diethyl ether are described. Solubility data for several vanadium compounds in nitrate process solutions are presented. Preliminary results on the extraction of uranium from process slurries by tributyl phosphate are reported, including data on the contaminants extracted with the uranium."

From abstract: "Results of tests investigating the effects of feed and scrub acidities on the extraction of uranium and contaminants from process slurries by tributyl phosphate-Gulfspray Naphtha in a Scheibel continuous extractor are described. Studies on the fractional precipitation of MgX from a dilute sulfuric acid system throw considerable light on the probable constitution of MgX. Further data on the effect of acidity on the extraction of molybdenum and vanadium into ethyl ether are presented.
