Zusammenfassung:The proposed invention relates to processes of extraction and concentration of radio nuclides and can be used in radiochemical technologies when processing liquid radioactive wastes. A method for extraction of americium from liquid radioactive wastes and its separation from rare-earth elements comprises simultaneous extraction of americium and rare-earth elements from radioactive nitrate solution with neutral solution of organic extracting agent in polar fluorinated organic solvent, washing of saturated with metals organic phase, selective re-extraction of americium. N,N,N',N'- tetraalkyl-amide of diglycolic acid is used as an extracting agent and solution containing 5-20 g/L of complexon, 5-60 g/L of nitrogen-containing organic acid and 60-240 g/L of salting-out agent is used as a solution for re-extraction of americium. Technical effect is the extraction of americium from acidic liquid radioactive solutions and its separation from all rare-earth elements in a single extraction cycle.
