Abstract:
By using a carbonate precipitation-P350 levextrel resin column chromatography combination method, more than 99.9% of iron was removed from the specimens, and the trace uranium was concentrated on a microchromatographic column packed with P350 levextrel resin and then eluted with a 4 g/L NaF eluent, resulting in a recovery of uranium of 98.6%-101.4%. The obtained uranium was determined by Arsenazo-Ⅲ spectrophotometry. The experimental conditions were optimized and discussed. The results of determination of iron ore samples from Baotou iron ore by the present method are in good agreement with the standard values.
