The article discusses the results of the uranium(VI) re-extraction(stripping) from the methyltrioctilammonium organic phase loaded by uranium(VI) peroxo-carbonate species using ammonium carbonate and ammonium bicarbonate aqueous solutions or gaseous carbon dioxide. Conditions for 97–99% re-extraction of uranium(VI) to obtain crystalline ammonium uranyl carbonate with structure (NH₄)₄[UO ₂(CO₃)₃] were determined.
