Abstract
A facile approach was designed to extract gold(I) from alkaline cyanide solution via a hydrometallurgy method. The performances of gold(I) extraction with furfuryl thioalcohol were investigated. The results revealed that gold(I) extraction increased with increasing extractant concentration and phase ratio but decreased with increase of pH value and god(I) concentration. The transfer speed of gold(I) between two phases was rather fast, and the extraction equilibrium could be established within 2 min. The extraction of gold(I) reached 92.7% with 15% (V/V) extractant. Gold(I) loaded in organic phase was stripped by NaOH solution, and stripping of gold(I) reached 90.2% with 0.08 mol · L−1.
