Abstract

The ultrafiltration preconcentration of Cd2+ using micellar extraction with 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ), solubilized in anionic micelles of sodium dodecylsulphate (SDS)) were studied. The n-butanol was used as a co-surfactant. Ultrafiltration yields (R, %) on cellulose acetate membranes (wet, 20000 MW-CO) under 400 kPa pressure were determined. Distribution ratios (D) of cadmium between bulk liquid phase and micellar pseudophase were estimated. The constants (app.) for the cadmium-sodium exchange on SDS micelles surface at pH values of 4.8 and 5.3 (3.36 and 3.86, respectively) were determined. It was found, that the values of ultrafiltration yields of the cadmium (at constant concentration of 8-HQ) are influenced not only by the pH and by the concentration values, but also by the ratio of the concentrations of the metal and the anionic surfactant.
