ABSTRACT:
Radioactive metal is recovered from solid oxides of the metal by exposing the oxide to a cocurrent flow of a first acid solution in a first contactor to form partially reacted oxides and a solution containing the metal. The first solution containing the metal is drawn off and the partially reacted oxides are passed through a countercurrent flow of a second acid solution in a second contactor to form reaction residues and a second solution containing the metal. The second solution containing the metal is drawn off and the reaction residues are passed through a countercurrent flow of wash water in a third contactor. The reaction residues are then separated from the wash water and dried.
