Analytical characterization of chemical processes is an essential component of both industrial processes and fundamental studies. Applicable techniques abound, but optical spectroscopy has the unique combination of being easily incorporated into on-line (in-situ) monitoring probes and can also provide abundant chemical information (concentration, oxidation state, speciation). However, this abundance of chemical information can make applying optical spectroscopy to complex chemical processes challenging. This is particularly evident in the bulk electrolysis of U(VI) to U(IV), an essential preparatory step in some nuclear fuel recycling schemes. Starting and product materials have interfering spectral signatures in both electronic and vibrational spectroscopies, making accurate and real-time analysis difficult to achieve. In this paper, we discuss the application of optical spectroscopy to the on-line monitoring of a bulk electrolysis process and the methods utilized to analyze data as well as characterize the efficiency and mechanism of U(IV) generation.
