_______________ extractor is used for the concentration of radioactive nuclear waste?

Correct answer: B. Pulsed column

  • A. Sieve plate
  • B. Pulsed column
  • C. Mixer-settler
  • D. Bollman

Explanation

A pulsed column enhances mixing and mass transfer through repeated pulsations, making it suitable for liquid-liquid extraction of radioactive nuclear waste. Mixer-settlers are also extractors, but pulsed columns are the standard choice identified here.
