Extraction of cadmium from phosphoric acid by trioctylphosphine oxide/kerosene solvent using factorial design

Abstract: Cadmium is present in all types of phosphates in concentrations ranging from 1 -90 ppm. During digestion of phosphates by concentrated sulfuric acid to produce phosphoric acid by the wet method 70-80% wt of cadmium is transferred to the phosphoric acid while 20-30% wt remains in solid phosphogypsum. Cadmium is then transferred from the phosphoric acid to the fertilizers. Most environmental regulations try to reduce the percentage of cadmium in the fertilizers. Several studies were carried out to reduce the con… Show more

“…Almela [1] was able to extract up to 90% of the Cd(II) from phosphoric acid with the commercial product bis (2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) thiophosphinic acid (cyanex 302) diluted in kerosene. Kherfan [2] pointed out that the extraction of cadmium from phosphoric acid could be performed with the solvent TOPO (trioctyl phosphine oxide) diluted in kerosene. Elyahyaoui [3] verified that DHEHP remains the best extractant of cadmium from phosphoric acid, comparing it either by tributylphosphate (TBP), trioctyl phosphine oxide (TOPO), triphenyl phosphine oxide (TPPO), or diphenylamine used individually or mixed.…”

“…Common sources of heavy metals include mining, industrial wastes, vehicle emissions, lead-acid batteries, paints, fertilizers, treated woods, aging water supply infrastructure etc. [6][7][8]. Solvent extraction is a way of separating solutes through two solvents (usually liquid) that can dissolve the substances of solutes, but both these solvents are immiscible.…”
