Talk:PUREX

message: Good Idea to split it off Cd. It looks much better here in it's own space. --DV8 2XL 17:25, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

message: It was bad that the PUREX process was not explained as an ion-exchange process right in the first paragraph and other places, so I put it in. In the article on liquid-liquid extraction, the ion-exchange process is mentioned prominently, as it should be, but not everyone wants to click to a half-dozen articles to get the basic info that they want.74.249.77.168 (talk) 23:51, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Dead link 

message: Just rewrote the Overview section in an attempt to make it friendlier to less sophisticated readers, based on some confusions I had on first reading of the prior version.  Mine was based on facts gleaned from this and related Wikipedia articles, but I found myself having to "fudge" on at least one point: the extent to which other actinoid elements (besides U and Pu) are carried along in the primary extraction phases.
Any reprocessing experts out there ? Mrnatural (talk) 02:05, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Technical detail 

message: Article currently reads in part smaller amounts of material composed of lighter atoms, notably the so-called fission products (my emphasis).
So-called? Really? Even in the most rabid anti-nuclear material, I haven't seen that particular claim made before. I guess I just haven't read enough of it.
The claim that these aren't really fission products is unsourced, so if nobody objects and/or explains what is meant, I'll remove it. Andrewa (talk) 20:14, 6 January 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Hi everyone, I'm a little confused about the various phases involved.  The text seems to suggest that the Uranium and Plutonium are extracted in the solvent phase (TBP), and yet the diagram on the page seems to show them in the aqueous phase (the link from the final settler to the "prereduction step") though I may be misreading the diagram.  If there are any experts, perhaps they could clarify?  Many thanks! Shipleyhamster (talk) 14:03, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
