Abstract

In this work the efficient recovery of palladium(II) ions from hydrochloric acid solutions by transport through polymer inclusion membranes (PIMs) was studied. The membrane consisted of cellulose triacetate (CTA) as the polymeric support, o-nitrophenyl octyl ether (ONPOE) as the plasticizer and Cyanex 471X (triisobutylphosphine sulphide) as the ion carrier. The effect of various parameters on the transport kinetics and the recovery factor of palladium(II) was studied, including concentration of Cyanex 471X in the membrane, hydrochloric acid concentration in the source phase and potassium thiocyanate (KSCN) concentration in the receiving phase.
