Abstract
An automated method is described for the determination of uranium (VI) extracted into a trialkylamine in kerosene or similar diluent from sulphuric acid leach liquor. The method uses the continuous segmented-flow technique. Discrimination against interference from other ions, especially sulphate, should be adequate for most purposes. 0. 5-5 g uranium per liter of extract can be determined at a rate of 60 samples per hour. Minor modifications permit extension to lower concentrations.
