Abstract
The solvent extraction equilibrium and kinetics of copper extraction by an alkylated 8-hydroxy quinoline were studied using an AKUFVE. The extracted complex was identified as CuR 2 where HR represents the alkylated 8-hydroxy quinoline. The rate controlling process was deduced to be the formation of the neutral chelate at the aqueous, organic interface. The activation energy for the extraction was calculated.
