The extraction behavior of Zr(IV) with tri-n-octyl amine (TOA) in kerosene was studied through a new method of solvent extraction. The mechanism of extraction and the species extracted were identified. Quantitative extraction of Zr(IV) with TOA in kerosene was studied by changing different parameters such as acid variation, diluent effect, metal concentration variation, extractant variation, effect of salting out reagent concentration and effect of temperature. It was observed that the percentage of extraction of Zr(IV) increased when the concentration of TOA and the percentage of extraction also increased when the metal ion concentration increased. The percentage of Zr(IV) became 97.4% with 0.1 M TOA from 3.0 M sulphuric acid. Kerosene was found to be effective diluent for the extraction of Zr(IV) with TOA.
The extraction behaviour of Zr(IV) from sulphuric acid with cyanex 923 (a mixture of four trialkyl phosphine oxides) in kerosene has been studied through a novel method liquidliquid extraction. The mechanism of extraction and the species extracted have been identified. Quantitative extraction of Zr(IV) with cyanex 923 in kerosene was studied by changing different parameters such as acid variation, extractant variation, effect of salting out reagent concentration, effect of temperature, metal concentration variation and diluent effect. It was observed that the percentage of extraction of Zr(IV) increased when the concentrations of cyanex 923 and metal ion concentration increased. Kerosene was found to be effective diluent for the extraction of Zr(IV) withcyanex 923.
The extraction behaviour of zirconium(IV) from sulfuric acid medium has been studied with a binary mixture of tri-n-octyl amine (TOA) and Cyanex923 (a mixture of four trialkyl phosphine oxides) in kerosene using a novel liquid-liquid extraction method. Quantitative extraction of zirconium(IV) with binary mixture of Cyanex923 and TOA in kerosene was studied by changing different parameters such as acid variation, extractant variation, effect of chloride ion concentration, effect of temperature, metal concentration variation, diluent effect, and pH effect. The percentage of extraction of zirconium(IV) decreased when the concentration of Cyanex923 and TOA increased. The percentage of zirconium(IV) was observed as 97.56% in a binary mixture of 0.007 M Cyanex923 and 0.06 M TOA. Kerosene was found to be an effective diluent for the extraction of zirconium(IV) with 97.56% extraction using a binary mixture of Cyanex923 and TOA. In addition, the stripping of the zirconium(IV) metal ion in the organic phase was also examined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
