Fig.1-25 Concept of the electro-refining process and standard redox potential of TRU and rare earth elements

Uranium and TRU dissolved in molten salt are separated from FP elements and recovered on a cathode by electrolysis. Uranium metal is deposited on a solid cathode; U and TRU are recovered simultaneously into a liquid cadmium cathode (LCC) by controlling each cathode potential.
