Intensified extraction and stripping of uranium using membrane dispersion microextractor

The extraction and stripping of uranium(VI) using membrane dispersion microextractor were investigated in high phase ratio. The effects of residence time, aqueous phase flowrates and organic phase flowrates, as well as nitric acid and the extractant concentration on the stage efficiency were evaluated. With the increase of aqueous phase flowrate and organic phase, the efficiency firstly decreased and then increased. Both the extraction efficiency and stripping efficiency can reach >90 % at high phase ratio within 10 s. The efficiency decreased with the increase of nitric acid in aqueous phase, whereas the efficiency increased with the increase of tributyl phosphate (TBP) concentration. Finally, mass transfer characteristic in extraction process in membrane dispersion microextractor was discussed. The overall mass transfer coefficient in membrane dispersion microextractor could reach 0.13 s−1 at A:O = 5:1 and 0.058 s−1at high A:O ratio of 40:1.

Extraction of cerium(III) with N, N′-dimethyl-N, N′-dioctyl-diglycolamide in [Bmim][PF6] compared in 40% octanol/kerosene

ABSTRACT The extraction of Ce(III) nitrate has been investigated by using N, N′-dimethyl-N, N′-dioctyl-diglycolamide (DMDODGA = L) as extractant with 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([Bmim][PF6]) as diluent in comparison with 40% octanol/kerosene. DMDODGA in two different diluents shows good extraction ability for Ce(III), but the trends are quite different depending on the concentrations of the ligand in solvent phase and nitric acid in aqueous phase. The slope analysis method is used to obtain the stoichiometric ratio of the extracted complexes. 1:3 complex of Ce(III) to DMDODGA may be formed in both systems, while 1:2 complex may be also formed in DMDODGA-40% octanol/kerosene system. The extraction of Ce(III) is by the cation exchange mechanism in DMDODGA-[Bmim][PF6] system. Unlike the expected positively charged 1:3 complex of Ce(III) formed in the DMDODGA-40% octanol/kerosene system, the 1:2 complex is assumed to be a neutral complex with two DMDODGA molecules bonding to Ce(III). In addition, the stronger interaction between the C = O groups of L and Ce(III) in the DMDODGA-[Bmim][PF6] system than in the DMDODGA-40% octanol/kerosene system is confirmed by IR spectroscopy.

Extraction behaviour of Am(III) and Eu(III) from nitric acid medium in TEHDGA-HDEHP impregnated resins

Abstract The extraction behaviour of Am(III) and Eu(III) from nitric acid medium was studied in the solvent impregnated resins containing extractants such as tetra-bis(2-ethylhexyl)diglycolamide (TEHDGA) or bis-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) or mixture of TEHDGA+HDEHP. The rate of extraction of Am(III) and Eu(III) from 1 M nitric acid and the effect of various parameters, such as the concentration of nitric acid in aqueous phase and concentration of TEHDGA and HDEHP in resin phase, on the distribution coefficient of Am(III) and Eu(III) was studied. The distribution coefficient of Am(III) and Eu(III) in HDEHP-impregnated resin decreased and that in TEHDGA-impregnated resin increased, with increase in the concentration of nitric acid. However, in (TEHDGA+HDEHP) – impregnated resin, synergic extraction was observed at lower nitric acid concentration and antagonism at higher nitric acid concentration. The mechanism of Am(III) and Eu(III) extraction in the combined resin was investigated by slope analysis method. The extraction of various metal ions present in the fast reactor simulated high-level liquid waste was studied. The separation factor of Am(III) over Eu(III) was studied using citrate-buffered diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) solution.

Extraction behaviour of Am(III) and Eu(III) from nitric acid medium in CMPO-HDEHP impregnated resins

Abstract Chromatographic resin containing extractants such as octyl(phenyl)-N,N-diisobutylcarbamoylmethylphosphine oxide (CMPO) or bis-(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) or mixture of extractants (CMPO + HDEHP) in an acrylic polymer matrix was prepared and studied for the extraction of Am(III) and Eu(III) over a range of nitric acid concentration. The effect of various parameters such as concentration of nitric acid in aqueous phase and the concentration of CMPO and HDEHP in the resin phase was studied. The distribution coefficient of Am(III) and Eu(III) in the impregnated resin increased with increased in the concentration of nitric acid for CMPO-impregnated resin, whereas a reverse trend was observed in HDEHP impregnated resin. In case of resin containing both the extractants, synergism was observed at low nitric acid concentration and antagonism at high nitric acid concentration. The mechanism of extraction was probed by slope analysis method at 0.01 and 2 M nitric acid concentrations. Citrate-buffered DTPA was used for the selective separation of Am(III), and a separation factor of 3–4 was obtained at pH 3.

자동차 휠 도금박리폐액으로부터 질산 및 구리의 회수

자동차용 고광택 크롬 도금 박리액에는 질산과 유가금속인 구리가 다량 함유되어 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 질산( $HNO_3$ ) 및 유가금속은 고가이며 유독하므로, 경제 및 환경을 고려하여 반드시 회수하여 재활용하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 도금박리액으로부터 질산과 구리는 용매 추출법을 이용하여 후 분리하였다. 수상에 존재하는 질산의 농도는 0.01 ~ 1N NaOH를 이용하여 적정하여 분석하고, 금속의 농도는 ICP-MS 및 ICP-AES 등을 이용하여 분석하였다. 도금 박리액을 분석한 결과, 구리 이온은 76,850 mg/L이 함유되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 용액 내 질산의 양을 NaOH 용액을 이용하여 적정법으로 측정하였을 때 대략 1.02 M 임을 알 수 있었다. 50% Tributylphosphate (TBP)를 이용하여 3단 추출한 유기층의 용액을 증류수를 이용하여 각각 3회의 역추출을 하였을 때, 원액으로부터 48.1%의 질산을 회수할 수 있음을 알 수 있었으며, 순도는 99.9% 이상이었다. 질산 회수 후, 용액 내에 남은 구리는 PC 88A, D2EPHA, LIX 84 및 ISE 106을 이용하여 용매추출 하였으며, 각 용매의 추출률을 비교하였을 때, ISE 106의 경우, 1단 추출 후 30% 황산으로 역세척 하였을 경우, 92%의 구리를 회수할 수 있었다. 추출된 구리는 $N_2H_4$ 를 이용하여 환원시켰고, 다양한 조건 하에서 구리 분말을 제조하였다. 【It has been known that there are large amount of nitric acid and valuable metals, copper in the plating waste solution of automobile wheel. As nitric acid and valuable metals are high price and toxic, they should be recovered for economics and environment. Plating waste was extracted with TBP diluted with kerosene. The concentration of nitric acid in aqueous phase was analyzed by titration method by NaOH solution (0.1~1.0N) and the amount of metals by ICP-MS and ICP-AES. The concentration of copper in plating waste were 76,850 mg/L. The concentration of nitric acid in plating waste was 1.02 M. After three step extraction was performed with 50% TBP, each organic phase was stripped three times with distilled water to obtain 48.1% of nitric acid. Purity of final nitric acid was over 99.9% by ICP analysis. After recovery of nitric acid, copper was extracted with various solvent extractors like PC 88A, D2EPHA, LIX 84 and ISE 106. Among these extractors, 92% of copper was recovered by ISE 106 after 1st extraction and 30% $H_2SO_4$ stripping. Copper ion was reduced with $N_2H_4$ to make metal powders, respectively.】

Extraction du nitrate d'uranyle par les sulfoxydes aliphatiques

After having recalled the main physical properties of the aliphatic sulfoxides, we demonstrated di- n-heptyl and di- n-octylsulfoxides could extract uranyl nitrate with a good yield, by formation of UO 2(NO 3) 2 · 2 sulfoxides type complex. With light sulfoxides, this complex has a low solubility in the diluant we used (carbon tetrachloride) and precipitates. Nitric acid in aqueous phase promotes extraction. This salting out effect reaches a maximum for a 4·5 N concentration. At last, we demonstrated that, for important concentrations, uranyl nitrate distribution coefficient was proportional to initial sulfoxide concentration.
