Abstract
ABSTRACTThe effect of parameters like shaking time, nitric acid, nitrate ion, extractant concentration, temperature, diluents, and phase volume ratio on the extraction of Ce(III) from acidic nitrate medium using binary mixture of Cyanex 921 and Cyanex 923 in kerosene has been investigated. Synergism was observed in the range 0.001-1.0 mol/L HNO3. With increase in extractant concentration and O/A phase volume ratio, extraction increases while with increase in nitric acid concentration and temperature, extraction decreases. Sulphuric acid and hydrochloric acid are found to be effective in stripping. Separation factors for Nd/Ce are higher as compared to those for Ce/La and Pr/Ce.
