Synthesis and evaluation of actinide imprinted resins
… shown good results with application to actinide separations. Large portions of recent research have been dedicated to the synthesis and evaluation of resins with phenolic-type functional groups. Other recent chemical research with lighter metals has developed a technique known as ion …

General analysis of breed-and-burn reactors and limited-separations fuel cycles
… 450 DPA. By recycling used B&B fuel in a limited-separations (without full actinide separations) fuel cycle, there is potential for sodium-cooled B&B reactors to achieve fleet doubling times of less than one decade, although this result is highly sensitive to the reactor core composition employed …

On the coordination chemistry of pentavalent (σ⁴, λ⁵) phosphorus compounds
The work described herein details the synthesis of a variety of pentavalent organophosphorus compounds and their applications as ligands to address important problems in coordination chemistry. This research encompasses two main themes: (1) the asymmetric synthesis of enantiopure …

Polyaminocarboxylic Acids as Potential Candidates for Trivalent Actinide/lanthanide Separations
… technique that employs a series of analytical separations in an effort to remove radioactive contaminants from spent nuclear fuel (SNF) and recover uranium in high purity. This separation utilizes a polyaminocarboxylic acid and a phosphorous extractant to separate trivalent actinides (An(III)s) …
