Modelling Solvent Extraction of Uranium with Molybdenum Control in SysCAD
An alternative approach to modelling solvent extraction of uranium based upon fundamental thermodynamic analysis. Pure system isotherms are used to calculate fundamental thermodynamic constants of interfacial reactions. These are implemented in a SysCAD process model using the PHREEQC add-on.
• Thermodynamic and Solvent Extraction Modelling in SysCAD
• Uranium and Molybdenum Solvent Extraction Chemistry
• Isotherm Data Fitting
• Baseline Simulation
• Sensitivity Analysis
Presentation by Dr. Kevin L. Heppner, P. Eng, representing SysCAD at the ALTA 2022 Metallurgical Conference & Exhibition 20-27 May 2022.
Based on the paper "First Principles Modelling of the Solvent Extraction and Stripping of Uranium including Molybdenum Control", first presented at ALTA 2022 - https://www.altamet.com.au/conference...
