Abstract: Uranium values are recovered as uranyl peroxide from wet process phosphoric acid by a solvent extraction-precipitation process. The preferred form of this process comprises a first solvent extraction with DEPA-TOPO followed by reductive stripping of the extractant with Fe.sup.++ - containing phosphoric acid. After reoxidation, the uranium-containing aqueous stripping solution is extracted again with DEPA-TOPO and the pregnant organic is then stripped with a dilute ammonium carbonate solution. The resulting ammonium uranyl tricarbonate solution is then acidified, with special kerosene treatment to prevent wax formation, and the acidified solution is reacted with H.sub.2 O.sub.2 to precipitate a uranyl peroxide compound.

Abstract: There is provided an improved static mixing apparatus which comprises in combination a tubular body and a static mixing element preferably coextensive in length with the tubular body and disposed therein in fluid flow intercepting relation. The static mixing element is characterized by a plurality of alternately oppositely extending first triangular elements from a common center line whereby the laterally extending first triangular elements are in axially staggered relation, and a plurality of second triangular members each having one apex on the common center line and each having a side in common with a first triangular element, and each of the second triangular elements lying in a plane angularly related to the first triangular element with which it has a side in common.The second triangular elements lie in sectors about the common center line.
