The Application of Electrospray Mass Spectrometry to Solution Speciation: An Integrated Experimental and Computational Approach
(2016)
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) is a promising technique for the study of metal:ligand solution speciation. While ESI-MS is frequently used qualitatively with some success, quantitative use of the technique ...
ASSESSING MEDIUM EFFECTS IN TALSPEAK-LIKE SYSTEMS VIA CALORIMETRIC ENTROPY TITRATIONS
(2017)
This study investigated the application of calorimetric entropy titrations to the light lanthanides in TALSPEAK-like systems. Since TALSPEAK operates in an unusual ionic medium, this work was expanded to probe medium effects ...
Fundamental Studies and Potential Applications of Cloud Point Extraction
(2011)
FUNDAMENTAL STUDIES AND POTENTIAL APPLICATIONS OF CLOUD POINT EXTRACTIONAbstractby MELISSA ENSOR FREIDERICH, Ph.D.Washington State UniversityDECEMBER 2011Chair: Kenneth L. NashSeparation of the components of nuclear fuel ...
Optimization of the Electrochemical Pre-Concentration of f-Elements
(2014)
Rapid pre-concentration of trace lanthanide cations in aqueous solution has been achieved using mercury film electrodes. Although effective, this technique has shown minimal sample carryover when used to pre-concentrate ...
COORDINATION CHEMISTRY OF f-ELEMENTS IN THE TALSPEAK PROCESS
(2011)
A key step in the advancement of the nuclear fuel cycle in the U.S. is transmutation of the long-lived activation product actinides (Am3+ and Cm3+). Transmutation is viable once the minor actinides Am3+ and Cm3+ have been ...
