It is found that the extractant HEHPEHE exhibited high extraction selectivity to chromium(III) from aqueous waste solution. The colloidal liquid aphrons (CLAs) were successfully generated using kerosene as a solvent, HEHPEHE as an extractant, sodium dodecyl benzene sulphate (SDBS) as a surfactant in aqueous phase and polyoxyethylene sorbitol anhydride monolaurate (Tween-20) in oil phase. To study the extraction efficiency and advantages of the PDSE process in the removal of chromium(III), the effects of major factors, such as initial chromium(III) concentration, volume of colloidal gas aphrons (CGAs), HEHPEHE volume fraction, phase ratio (solvent phase to water phase), mass fraction of dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (HTAB), mass fraction of SDBS, mass fraction of Tween-20 and initial pH of aqueous waste solution were also investigated and the appropriate process conditions were obtained. Under the appropriate conditions, the extraction efficiency of chromium(III) above 99.9 % can be achieved and the treated aqueous waste solution can be discharged directly without polluting the environment.展开更多

Li...For the development of lithium ion recovery process from seawater, a series of experimental researches were performed. Solvent extraction of lithium ion from aqueous solution using kerosene as solvent was proposed. Lithium ion is effectively extracted by thenoyltrifluoroace- tone-trioctylphosphine oxide (TTA-TOPO) in kerosene within 80 min. Extraction efficiency is severely influenced by stoichiometric parameters. Among the stoichiometric parameters, volume ratio of aqueous (A) to extraction (E) solution is the most influential parameter. After extrac- tion, lithium ion could be easily stripped from the extraction solution by acidic solutions. Stripping efficiency decreases with pH of acidic solutions, and the kind of acid does not affect the stripping efficiency. Extraction efficiency main- tains at more than 93 % even when the extraction solution is recycled three times. 65 % of lithium ion can be extracted from seawater by this solvent extraction process when magnesium ion is precipitated by NHaOH prior to solvent extraction process. Other metallic ions in seawater decrease the extraction efficiency of lithium ion.展开更多

These molecules were examined as extractants for extraction-separation of La(Ⅲ), Eu(Ⅲ) and Er(Ⅲ), as representative ions of light, middle and heavy rare earths, from aqueous chloride solutions. The analysis of the extraction equilibria revealed that the extracted species of lanthanum and europium ions by both of the extractants had a 1:3 metal to ligand ratio It was suggested that erbium ions were extracted into the organic phase via the formation ofEr(LIor Ⅱ)2Cl complexes. The effect of the organic diluents on the extraction-separation efficiency of the studied rare earths by HLI and HLⅡ was investigated by comparing the results obtained in dichloromethane and carbon tetrachloride. Regardless to the diluent used, the order of selectivity presented by the investigated extractants was Er(Ⅲ)〉Eu(Ⅲ)〉La(Ⅲ). It is noteworthy that, a significant enhancement in separation of the studied rare earths by the extractants was achieved in their competitive extraction experiments with respect to that obtained in single component extraction experiments. Applicability of the extractants for the removal of rare earth ions from spent Ni-MH batteries was tested by removal ofLa(Ⅲ), Eu(Ⅲ) and Er(Ⅲ) ions from simulated leach solution of such batteries.展开更多

The results of orthogonal experiments indicate that LIX 984N is highly selective and very efficient in the extraction of Cu(Ⅱ), and the analysis of variance indicates that the sequence of parameters according to their influence on the separation efficiency is phase ratio 〉 LIX 984N concentration 〉 pH value 〉 extraction time. The optimal condition for copper extraction is obtained as 25% of LIX 984N concentration, 7 rain of extraction time, 3:2 of phase ratio O/A, and pH = 1.7. The separation of Zn(Ⅱ) and Cd(Ⅱ) was performed after the copper extraction from the raffinate. Comparative analysis of the separation with di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid (D2EHPA), D2EHPA-tributyl- phosophate (TBP) synergistic extracting system, and 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono 2-ethylhexyl ester (HEHEHP) was made at pH = 2.0. It is demonstrated that the extraction efficiency with D2EHPA is improved after being saponified by sodium hydroxide, and D2EHPA-TBP synergistic extracting, as well as HEHEHP, has a superior selectivity to Zn(Ⅱ) over Cd(Ⅱ).展开更多

The proposed process consists of two solvent extraction(SX) steps but with only one extractant - bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid(Cyanex? 272) - used in both steps. The first extraction step involved the removal of aluminum and zinc, whereas the second extraction step involved the separation of cobalt along with manganese from nickel. The experimental results showed essentially quantitative removal of aluminum(〉97%) and zinc(〉99%) in a single extraction stage using 20vol% Cyanex 272 at pH 2.1. Some cobalt(32%) and manganese(55%) were co-extracted but were easily scrubbed out completely from the loaded organic phase using dilute sulfuric acid at pH ≤ 1.38. Cobalt and manganese in the first extraction raffinate were extracted completely in four extraction stages at staggered pH values of 4.0, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.0 in the first, second, third, and fourth stages, respectively, using also 20vol% Cyanex 272. A small amount of nickel(up to 6.6%) was co-extracted but was easily scrubbed out completely with dilute sulfuric acid at pH 2.0. A flow diagram showing the input and output conditions and the metals separated under the deduced optimum conditions is presented.展开更多

文摘This study details a comprehensive approach focusing on the effective separation of light rare earth elements(REEs)via solvent extraction technique.A stock solution containing lanthanum,cerium,neodymium,praseodymium,and samarium was prepared by dissolving their pure mixed oxide(reclaimed from spent Ni-MH batteries)in a diluted HCl solution.Key extractants,including bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid(Cyanex 272),Cyanex 572,trialkylphosphine oxide(Cyanex 923),and 2-ethylhexylphosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester(PC 88A),along with tributyl phosphate(TBP)as a phase modifier,were utilized to form organic systems.The extraction behavior and separability of these systems at various pH levels as well as their extraction mechanisms were investigated.The results demonstrated a direct relationship between the extraction trend and the experimental pH value,with enhanced selectivity when TBP was added.Notably,Nd and Pr exhibited similar extraction behaviors,with minor deviations from Ce,making their separation difficult to achieve.Sm extraction followed a distinct trend,allowing for its separation from other elements at pH≤2.In contrast,La exhibited a low affinity for coordination with extractants when pH was≤3.5,facilitating the separation of other elements from La,which could then be isolated in the raffinate.Among the studied organic systems,combinations of Cyanex 572 and PC 88A with TBP demonstrated superior performance in element separation.Optimum separation factors were calculated withβ_(Ce/La)=12,βNd/La=87,β_(Pr/La)=127,andβ_(Sm/La)=3191 for the former,andβ_(Sm/Ce)=54,β_(Sm/Nd)=20,andβ_(Sm/Pr)=14 for the latter.These findings provide valuable insights for selecting extraction systems and designing experiments for the effective solvent extraction separation of light REEs from their mixture.

文摘Coal is a versatile energy resource and was a driver of the industrial revolution that transformed the economies of Europe and North America and the trajectory of civilization.In this work,a technoeconomic analysis was performed for a coal-to-carbonfiber manufacture process developed at the University of Kentucky’s Center for Applied Energy Research.According to this process,coal,with decant oil as the solvent,was converted to mesophase pitch via solvent extraction,and the mesophase pitch was subsequently converted to carbon fiber.The total cost to produce carbon fibers from coal and decant oil via the solvent extraction process was estimated to be$11.50/kg for 50,000-tow pitch carbon fiber with a production volume of 3750 MT/year.The estimated carbon fiber cost was significantly lower than the current commercially available PAN-based carbon fiber price($20–$30/kg).With decant oil recycling rates of 50%and 70%in the solvent extraction process,the manufacturing cost of carbon fiber was estimated to be$9.90/kg and$9.50/kg of carbon fiber,respectively.A cradle-to-gate energy assessment revealed that carbon fiber derived from coal exhibited an embodied energy of 510 MJ/kg,significantly lower than that of conventionally produced carbon fiber from PAN.This notable difference is primarily attributed to the substantially higher conversion rate of coal-based mesophase pitch fibers into carbon fiber,surpassing PAN fibers by 1.6 times.These findings indicate that using coal for carbon fiber production through solvent extraction methods could offer a more energy-efficient and cost-competitive alternative to the traditional PAN based approach.

文摘In this study,a cleaner method for separation and recovery of V/W/Na in waste selective catalytic reduction(SCR)catalyst alkaline leaching solution was proposed.The method involved membrane electrolysis followed by ion morphology pretreatme nt and solvent extraction.An acidic V(Ⅴ)/W(Ⅵ)solution was obtained using the me mbrane electrolysis method without adding any other chemical reagents.In addition,Na was recovered in the form of NaOH by product,avoiding the generation of Na containing wastewater.The electrolysis parameters were investigated,the lowest power consumption of 3063 kW·h·t^(-1)NaOH was obtained at a current density of 125 A·m^(-2)and an initial NaOH concentration of 2 mol·L^(-1).After electrolysis,oxalic acid was added to the acidic V/W containing solution,converting V(Ⅴ)negative ion to V(Ⅳ)positive ion.Since W(Ⅵ)ion state remained in negative form,the generation of heteropolyacid ions(W_(x)V_(y)O_(z)^(n-))was prevented.It was found that under the condition of oxalic acid addition/theoretical consumption 1.2 and reaction temperature 75℃,100%V(Ⅴ)was co nverted to V(Ⅳ4).Using 10%N263+10%noctanol+80%sulfonated kerosene as extractant,the highest W(Ⅵ)/V(Ⅳ)separation coefficient of 7559.76was obtained at pH=1.8,O:A ratio=1:1 and extraction time 15 min.With 2 mol·L^(-1)NaOH as stripping reagent,the W stripping efficiency reached 98.50%at O:A ratio=2:1 after 4-stages of stripping.The enrichment of V remained in the solution was realized using P204 as extractant and 20%(mass)H_(2)SO_(4)as stripping reagent.The parameters of extraction/stripping process were investigated,using 10%P204+10%TBP+80%sulfonated kerosene as extractant,the V extraction efficiency reached 97.50%at O:A ratio=1:2after 4 stages of extraction.Using 20%H_(2)SO_(4)as the stripping reagent,the V stripping efficiency was 98.30%at an O:A ratio of 4:1 after five stage s of stripping.After the entire process,a high-purity VOSO_(4)and Na_(2)WO_(4)product solutions were obtained with V/W recovery efficiency 95.84%/98.50%,separately.This study examined a more effective and cleaner method for separating V/W/Na in Na_(2)WO_(4)/NaVO_(3)solution,which may serve as a reference for the separation and recovery of V/W/Na in waste SCR catalysts.

文摘The extraction experiments of chromium(W) from aqueous waste solution by predispersed solvent extraction (PDSE) process with extractant (HEHPEHE) and its mixture, including acidic extractant (D2EHPA), alkaline extractant (TOA) and neutral extractant (TBP) were carried out respectively. It is found that the extractant HEHPEHE exhibited high extraction selectivity to chromium(III) from aqueous waste solution. The colloidal liquid aphrons (CLAs) were successfully generated using kerosene as a solvent, HEHPEHE as an extractant, sodium dodecyl benzene sulphate (SDBS) as a surfactant in aqueous phase and polyoxyethylene sorbitol anhydride monolaurate (Tween-20) in oil phase. To study the extraction efficiency and advantages of the PDSE process in the removal of chromium(III), the effects of major factors, such as initial chromium(III) concentration, volume of colloidal gas aphrons (CGAs), HEHPEHE volume fraction, phase ratio (solvent phase to water phase), mass fraction of dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (HTAB), mass fraction of SDBS, mass fraction of Tween-20 and initial pH of aqueous waste solution were also investigated and the appropriate process conditions were obtained. Under the appropriate conditions, the extraction efficiency of chromium(III) above 99.9 % can be achieved and the treated aqueous waste solution can be discharged directly without polluting the environment.

文摘Bottle gourd is a good source of health-beneficial bioactive substances.This research aimed at evaluating the effect of different cooking methods(pressure cooking,microwaving,and frying)and extraction solvents(methanol,ethanol and butanol)on bottle gourd fruit phenolic compounds and antioxidant capacity.The quantitative estimation of polyphenolic compounds,flavonoids and tannins was estimated by spectrophotometric methods.The antioxidative properties were evaluated using ferric thiocyanate(FTC),thiobarbituric acid(TBA),ferric reducing antioxidant power(FRAP)and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH)tests using the standard methods.Moreover,quantification of individual polyphenols was carried out by high-performance thin layer chromatography(HPTLC)technique.Frying and pressure-cooking thermal treatments were observed to be the best methods for retaining bioactive molecules.When compared to the raw counterpart,the retention level of total phenol content(TPC)in pressure cooked and fried samples was 23.8%and 13.3%,respectively.Similarly,antioxidant capacity in terms of FRAP was observed to increase by 47.26%after pressure cooking and 28.50%after microwave cooking in respect to the raw sample.The HPTLC results showed that this fruit has high antioxidant capacity and is rich in phenolic acid[gallic(17.83 mg g^(−1)dwb),p-coumaric(6.70 mg g^(−1)dwb)and vanillic(60.66 mg g^(−1)dwb)]and flavonoids[quercetin(24.64 mg g^(−1)dwb)and myrecetin(20.73 mg g^(−1)dwb)].The chromatography indicated destruction and transformation of new phenolic compounds due to heat treatments.The correlation analysis revealed that flavonoids were much more responsible for their antioxidant activity.Cooking methods and extraction solvents affected the retention and recovery of polyphenolic compounds available in bottle gourd fruit.These findings offer valuable information for optimizing cooking techniques to preserve and enhance the nutritional and antioxidant properties of bottle gourd,making it a valuable fruit for a healthy diet.Pressure cooking could be the most suitable cooking treatment as far as retention of bioactive compounds like phenolic acids is concerned.
文摘To determine the chemical constituents of volatile components in saffron from the Tibet Autonomous Region and the Henan Province of China and to compare the chemical composition difference in the saffron,the total volatile components were extracted by ultrasonic-assisted solvent extraction(USE),using five different solvents:diethyl ether,ethanol,ethyl acetate, dichloromethane and acetone,analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS)and compared to the standard MS data,and their relative contents were calculated by area normalization.The results showed both that USE was an efficient and rapid method for the extraction of the volatile components from saffron and that the components extracted from the same sample using different solvents were different.Comparison of the experimental results of saffron from the Tibet Autonomous Region and the Henan Province of China showed that their volatile components were different in their chemical composition and in their relative percentages.USE/GC-MS is a simple,rapid,and effective method for the analysis of volatile oil components in saffron.

文摘The extraction of Sc by acid leaching with CaF2 and solvent extraction with P507 from red mud was proposed.The influence of acid leaching and solvent extraction on recovery of Sc was investigated.The CaF2 can obviously improve the leaching efficiency of Sc and reduce the acid consumption.The leaching efficiency of Sc increases from 74%to 92%and the dosage of acid reduces under suitable conditions by adding 5%CaF2.The minerals in red mud can easily be decomposed and leached into the acid solution with CaF2 through analysis of XRD pattern.The particles of red mud become smaller and multihole.The Sc can be selectively extracted with 10%P507 at the pH value of 0.1 from the acid leaching solution.More than 98%of Sc and less than 10%of Al and Fe are extracted.The SC2O3 with purity of 99%is obtained after the process of reverse extraction with NaOH,H2SO4 dissolution,precipitation by oxalic acid and roasting at 750℃.

文摘For the development of lithium ion recovery process from seawater, a series of experimental researches were performed. Solvent extraction of lithium ion from aqueous solution using kerosene as solvent was proposed. Lithium ion is effectively extracted by thenoyltrifluoroace- tone-trioctylphosphine oxide (TTA-TOPO) in kerosene within 80 min. Extraction efficiency is severely influenced by stoichiometric parameters. Among the stoichiometric parameters, volume ratio of aqueous (A) to extraction (E) solution is the most influential parameter. After extrac- tion, lithium ion could be easily stripped from the extraction solution by acidic solutions. Stripping efficiency decreases with pH of acidic solutions, and the kind of acid does not affect the stripping efficiency. Extraction efficiency main- tains at more than 93 % even when the extraction solution is recycled three times. 65 % of lithium ion can be extracted from seawater by this solvent extraction process when magnesium ion is precipitated by NHaOH prior to solvent extraction process. Other metallic ions in seawater decrease the extraction efficiency of lithium ion.

文摘The behaviour of vanadium(V) extracted from sulfuric acid solution was investigated using Cyanex 923 as an extractant. The effects of the concentration of Cyanex 923 and the pH of the solution were studied. The extraction of vanadium(V) increases with the increase of Cyanex 923 concentration and shaking time. Cyanex 923 can extract vanadium(V) from sulfuric acid solution at low pH conditions, and the best pH conditions for extraction of vanadium(V) are at pH 1.0-2.0. The species extracted into the organic phase is VO2HSO4 with one molecule of Cyanex 923. Equilibrium studies were used to assess the extraction efficiency of vanadium(V) recovery from the sulfuric acid solution.
文摘N,N-dibutyldiglycol amic acid (HL1) and N,N-dioctyldiglycol nmic acid (HLu) were synthesized and characterized by conventional spectroscopic methods. These molecules were examined as extractants for extraction-separation of La(Ⅲ), Eu(Ⅲ) and Er(Ⅲ), as representative ions of light, middle and heavy rare earths, from aqueous chloride solutions. The analysis of the extraction equilibria revealed that the extracted species of lanthanum and europium ions by both of the extractants had a 1:3 metal to ligand ratio It was suggested that erbium ions were extracted into the organic phase via the formation ofEr(LIor Ⅱ)2Cl complexes. The effect of the organic diluents on the extraction-separation efficiency of the studied rare earths by HLI and HLⅡ was investigated by comparing the results obtained in dichloromethane and carbon tetrachloride. Regardless to the diluent used, the order of selectivity presented by the investigated extractants was Er(Ⅲ)〉Eu(Ⅲ)〉La(Ⅲ). It is noteworthy that, a significant enhancement in separation of the studied rare earths by the extractants was achieved in their competitive extraction experiments with respect to that obtained in single component extraction experiments. Applicability of the extractants for the removal of rare earth ions from spent Ni-MH batteries was tested by removal ofLa(Ⅲ), Eu(Ⅲ) and Er(Ⅲ) ions from simulated leach solution of such batteries.
文摘An experimental investigation was presented on the separation of Cu(Ⅱ), Zn(Ⅱ), and Cd(Ⅱ) from a rich sulfate leachate of zinc slag by solvent extraction. The results of orthogonal experiments indicate that LIX 984N is highly selective and very efficient in the extraction of Cu(Ⅱ), and the analysis of variance indicates that the sequence of parameters according to their influence on the separation efficiency is phase ratio 〉 LIX 984N concentration 〉 pH value 〉 extraction time. The optimal condition for copper extraction is obtained as 25% of LIX 984N concentration, 7 rain of extraction time, 3:2 of phase ratio O/A, and pH = 1.7. The separation of Zn(Ⅱ) and Cd(Ⅱ) was performed after the copper extraction from the raffinate. Comparative analysis of the separation with di-2-ethylhexyl phosphoric acid (D2EHPA), D2EHPA-tributyl- phosophate (TBP) synergistic extracting system, and 2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono 2-ethylhexyl ester (HEHEHP) was made at pH = 2.0. It is demonstrated that the extraction efficiency with D2EHPA is improved after being saponified by sodium hydroxide, and D2EHPA-TBP synergistic extracting, as well as HEHEHP, has a superior selectivity to Zn(Ⅱ) over Cd(Ⅱ).

文摘A direct solvent extraction(DSX) process for purifying nickel and cobalt from the nitric acid leach solution of nickel laterite ores was conceived and experimentally probed. The proposed process consists of two solvent extraction(SX) steps but with only one extractant - bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)phosphinic acid(Cyanex? 272) - used in both steps. The first extraction step involved the removal of aluminum and zinc, whereas the second extraction step involved the separation of cobalt along with manganese from nickel. The experimental results showed essentially quantitative removal of aluminum(〉97%) and zinc(〉99%) in a single extraction stage using 20vol% Cyanex 272 at pH 2.1. Some cobalt(32%) and manganese(55%) were co-extracted but were easily scrubbed out completely from the loaded organic phase using dilute sulfuric acid at pH ≤ 1.38. Cobalt and manganese in the first extraction raffinate were extracted completely in four extraction stages at staggered pH values of 4.0, 4.4, 4.5, and 4.0 in the first, second, third, and fourth stages, respectively, using also 20vol% Cyanex 272. A small amount of nickel(up to 6.6%) was co-extracted but was easily scrubbed out completely with dilute sulfuric acid at pH 2.0. A flow diagram showing the input and output conditions and the metals separated under the deduced optimum conditions is presented.
文摘The application of soxhlet, ultrasonic and accelerated solvent extractiontechniques to the analysis of six organochlorine pesticides (α-HCH, β-HCH, γ-HCH, o, p'-DDT,p,p'-DDT and p,p'-DDE) in Taihu Lake sediment samples is described. It was found that the limits ofquantification ranged from 0.002 μg g^(-1) to 0.004 μg g^(-1), and the recoveries oforganochlorine pesticides with the three extraction techniques were acceptable ( 】80.7%). With amass selective detector, better results were obtained by accelerated solvent extraction usinghexane-acetone (1:1) as compared with soxhlet and ultrasonic extraction. It was shown that theaccelerated solvent extraction was the optimum technique for the analysis of organochlorinepesticides in sediments. The general features of the three extraction techniques are also presented.
