We applied a supercritical carbon dioxide fluid leaching method using a nitric acid-tri-
-butyl phosphate complex as a reactant to the removal of uranium from the radioactive solid samples simulating uranium contaminated firebrick wastes generated from uranium fuel fabrication facilities. It was found that uranium could be separated efficiently from the samples and separation efficiency depended on the heating temperature in the sample preparation.

Supercritical CO
fluid leaching (SFL) method using supercritical CO
fluid containing a complex of HNO
- tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) was applied to removal of uranium from radioactive solid wastes. Sea sands, incineration ashes and porous alumina bricks were employed as matrixes of simulated solid wastes. Real radioactive incineration ash wastes and firebrick wastes were also subjected to the SFL treatment. It was found that uranium could be efficiently removed from both of the simulated wastes and real wastes by the SFL method. The removal efficiency of uranium from the real waste was lower than that from the corresponding artificial waste. About 1 g and 35 mg of uranium were recovered from 10 g of the real ash waste and 37 g of the real firebrick waste, respectively.
