Equilibrium,kinetics and thermodynamics studies of Cd sorption onto a dithizone-impregnated Amberchrom CG-300m polymer resin

Amberchrom CG-300m, a styrene acrylic ester polymer resin, was studied for the first time as sorbent for metal ion sorption in a solid-phase extraction system. The polymer sorbent was modified via impregnation with dithizone to improve its efficiency. Efficiency of the modified sorbent improved by more than 47%. The loading capacity of the resin is 3.2 mg dithizone per gram of sorbent. The mechanisms of Cd(II) sorption from aqueous solutions are presented. Capacity of the modified resin for Cd(II) was investigated in batch experiments as a function of pH, initial metal ion concentration, temperature and time. Maximum capacity of 0.551 mg Cd(II) per gram of sorbent was achieved. The dimensionless separation factor, 0 < R_L < 1, associated with the Langmuir isotherm (at T = 294 K) signifies sorption of Cd(II) was favorable, as do negative values of free energy of sorption (ΔG) at temperatures exceeding 293 K. Sorption was endothermic (ΔH > 0) while ΔS > 0 reflects the affinity of the sorbent towards Cd(II). The pseudo-second order model proved to be the best fit model for Cd(II) sorption kinetics data. Particle-diffusion models suggest sorption follows film as well as pore diffusion mechanisms.

Cd(II) determination in the presence of aqueous micellar solutions

The equilibrium constants and molar absorptivities for the fast formation of a 1:3 complex between cadmium(II) (Cd(II)) and dithizonate anion, in the presence of cationic and non-ionic surfactants, allowed a simple and fast spectrophotometric determination of total cadmium. Indeed, the molar absorptivities of the Cd(II)-dithizone (Dz) complex formed in the presence of the neutral Triton X-100 and cationic cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) surfactants are almost twice the value observed in the standard method and the maxima of absorption are shifted by about 40 nm when compared with the standard method. Clearly, the use of neutral and cationic surfactants promotes a higher value of the molar absorptivities of the complex, resulting in an increase in the sensitivity of the method. Application of the method to the desorption of Cd(II) ions from clays is illustrated.

Determination of trace levels of mercury in water samples based on room temperature phosphorescence energy transfer

A novel method has been developed for the sensitive determination of mercury in aqueous media by room temperature phosphorescence (RTP). The measurement principle is based on the energy transfer (ET) from a phosphor molecule (acting as a donor) to a Hg-sensitive dye (acceptor). To our acknowledgment this is the first RTP method for mercury measurement developed so far. α-Bromonaphthalene (BrN) was selected as the phosphorescent donor molecule (BrN can produce significant RTP emission in aqueous media in a β-cyclodextrin rigid microenvironment without deoxygenation).The absorption spectrum of the complex formed between mercury and the dithizone dye possesses a desirable spectral overlap with the RTP emission spectrum of the donor (BrN), giving rise to a nonradiative ET from the phosphor molecules to the mercury complex. An increase in the concentration of Hg(II) causes an increase on the concentration of the dithizone complex (acceptor) with the subsequent increase of the absorbance and, therefore, resulting in a decrease of the RTP emission. Both, RTP intensities and triplet lifetimes of the BrN decreased with increases on the Hg(II) concentration.Possible interferences present in natural waters, including different cations and anions, which could affect the analytical response, were evaluated and the analytical performance characteristics investigated. The use of phosphorescence measurements (low background noise signals) resulted in an improvement on the sensitivity of the Hg(II) detection higher than five times as compared to the molecular absorption spectrophotometric method for Hg(II) detection based on dithizone as Hg-indicator. A detection limit (D.L.) of 14 ng ml⁻¹ of Hg(II) was obtained by RTP with a precision of ±4.8% for five replicates of 300 ng ml⁻¹ of Hg(II). The usefulness of the method was successfully evaluated by the determination of Hg(II) in spiked natural water samples.     

Determination of Gold by Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry with Hollow Fiber Liquid Phase Microextraction Using Room Temperature Ionic Liquids

A novel method to preconcentrate gold was developed employing a synergistic enhancement of a room temperature ionic liquid combined with hollow fiber liquid phase micro-extraction with flame atomic absorption spectrometry detection. The method is based on the complexation of gold with dithizone. The formed hydrophobic complex was subsequently extracted into the lumen of a hollow fiber. The organic phase was siphoned into FAAS for the determination. A room temperature ionic liquid and dithizone were used the enhancement reagent and chelating reagent, respectively. The addition of a room temperature ionic liquid led to a five-fold improvement in the extraction of gold. The 1-octanol was immobilized in the pores of the polypropylene hollow fiber as the liquid membrane and was also used as the acceptor solution. Some parameters that influenced extraction and determination were evaluated in detail, such as concentrations of the ionic liquid and dithizone, pH of samples, stirring rates, extraction time, and interferences. Under optimized conditions, a detection limit of 0.9 ng mL^?1 and an enrichment factor of 130 were achieved. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was 3.7% for Au (40 ng mL^?1, n = 5). The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of gold in certified reference environmental samples and ore samples with satisfactory results.

Study on extraction and separation of Ni and Zn using [bmim][PF6] IL as selective extractant from nitric acid solution obtained from zinc plant residue leaching

For the ever-growing demand of nickel (Ni) resources in industry, the Ni recovery from the mining residues or waste has received considerable interest. Zinc plant residue contains valuable metals it may be recovered using conventional pyrometallurgical or hydrometallurgical processes. The present communication is focused on the selective recovery of Ni from the real nitric acid leach solution of zinc plant residue by solvent extraction (i.e. 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([bmim][PF₆]) as ionic liquid, Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) and diphenylthiocarbazone (dithizone)). At first step, leaching of filter cake with the nitric acid solution was examined experimentally and it was observed that nitric acid as a relatively strong oxidant, can adequately dissolve Ni and Zn. After that, Ni and Zn extraction behavior in the leach solution was studied and the influence of pH and extractant concentration were investigated on the extraction of the metals. The results indicated Ni can be effectively separated by controlling the pH values. Moreover, Ni can be selectively separated using dithizone combined with [bmim][PF₆] at pH = 5.5 and the separation factor β_Ni/Zn can reach 2.27 × 10⁵ in one extraction stage. The extraction mechanism of Ni was investigated using slope analysis and stripping efficiencies 100% have been achieved for Zn and Ni with 2.0 M HNO₃. Thus, it can be concluded that the use of [bmim][PF₆] as alternatives solvents which have a less significant environmental impact than the usual solvents in terms of emission of vapors is one of the promising approaches for nickel ion extraction from the real leaching solution of zinc plant residue.
