In this communication, the authors report on the use of deep eutectic solvents (DESs) for processing nuclear waste, with a view to selectively recovering minor actinides (MA) from highly active raffinate solutions DESs are an interesting new class of green and eco-sustainable solvents. Here, a representative family of DES was tested as a co-solvent for MA/lanthanides partitioning based on Selective ActiNide Extraction (SANEX)-like hydrometallurgical processes. The reference system exploits the CyMe4-BTBP lipophilic extractant for selective MA recovery, but the slow kinetics is the main limitation toward the industrial implementation. A selection of hydrophilic DESs has been proposed as a phase transfer catalyst and tested to improve the process performances. In this work, the radiochem. stability and the extraction behavior of these DESs have been ascertained. Moreover, a preliminary optimization of system composition has been achieved. This study underlines a catalytic effect of DES that can be proficiently exploited to enhance CyMe4-BTBP extraction and selectivity.
