Abstract
In the Americium selective (AmSEL) process, the N-donor ligand 3,3’,3’’,3’’’-([2,2’-bipyridine]-6,6’-diylbis(1,2,4-triazine-3,5,6-triyl))tetrabenzenesulfonate (SO3-Ph-BTBP) is used to selectively strip Am(III) from a N,N,N’,N’-tetraoctyl diglycolamide (TODGA) containing organic phase loaded with Am(III), Cm(III) and lanthanides (Ln(III)). Fundamental extraction mechanism studies revealed an unusual extraction behavior of heavy Ln(III) and Y(III), which provided the motivation to investigate their complexation with SO3-Ph-BTBP using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and solvent extraction. NMR spectroscopy indicated the formation of the same SO3-Ph-BTBP complex with Lu(III) in 10-3 mol L-1, 1 mol L-1 and 3 mol L-1 DNO3 solution. However, the complexation at high DNO3 concentration is subject to a slower than expected complexation kinetics leading to the conclusion that the unusual extraction behavior is probably related to a kinetics effect rather than an unknown complex species. Kinetics studies using solvent extraction show a slowly increasing extraction of heavy Ln(III) and Y(III) into the organic phase which is attributed to a kinetically inhibited decomplexation of the SO3-Ph-BTBP complexes. This effect is even more pronounced at higher HNO3 concentration. Additionally, combinations of monoand di-methylated TODGA derivatives with SO3-Ph-BTBP were tested, showing a decreasing performance regarding the actinide(III)/lanthanide(III) and Am(III)/Cm(III) separation with increasing degree of methylation.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
