Abstract
Provided is a process for recovering uranium comprising (a) bringing a solution (I) into contact with a resin (I) to produce a mixture of a solution (II) and a resin (II), wherein the solution (I) is an aqueous solution that comprises 30 to 200 g/L sulfuric acid and that comprises 1 g/L to 50 g/L uranium, and wherein the resin (I) is a strong acid cation exchange resin, and (b) separating the solution (II) from the resin (II).
