Abstract

AbstractThe mechanism of cobalt, copper and nickel transport through supported liquid membranes containing di(2‐ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid as a mobile carrier has been studied. An equation describing the permeation rate has been derived, taking into account stagnant layer aqueous diffusion, interfacial resistance due to solvatation reaction and liquid membrane diffusion as simultaneous controlling factors. The validity of this model is evaluated with experimental data of mass transfer coefficient measured employing a permeation cell. For these ions it was found that at low stirring conditions the stagnant layer resistance mainly controlled the processes, but it is controlled by diffusion of the ion complex through the supported liquid membrane when the stagnant layer resistance is negligible.
