What is it about?
The extraction of actinides from high active aqueous raffinate waste (HAW) as well as high-level waste (HLW) solutions arising from Purex processing of thermal reactor fuels has been studied using a mixture of octyl(phenyl)-N N-diisobutylcarbamoyl-methylphosphine oxide (CMPO) and TBP in dodecane.

Why is it important?
CMPO is most efficient , selective and relatively stable organophosphorus bidented ligand to extract long life alpha emitor actinides from bulk volume of high active aqueous raffinate waste (HAW) as well as high-level waste (HLW) solutions arising from Purex processing of thermal reactor fuels to reduce radioactive hazards
