Supported liquid membranes (SLM) for recovery of bismuth from aqueous solutions

In this study, the extraction of Bi(III) from synthetic solutions of 2 M H₂SO₄/0.5 M HCl by supported liquid membranes (SLM) using tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (Cyanex 921) as extractant is reported. First, the nature of the Bi(III)/Cyanex 921 solvates extracted to organic phase (in a solvent extraction system) was determined by the slope method. It was found that Bi(III) reacts with 2 molecules of Cyanex 921 to form the solvate BiCl₃·2Cyanex 921. In the recovery of Bi(III) by the SLM system, parameters that influence extraction efficiency were evaluated, including: support, feed solution and stripping solution nature, and extractant concentration in the organic phase which impregnates the support. Results indicate that Cyanex 921 dissolved in kerosene is not able to extract Bi(III) from H₂SO₄ media. Moreover, transfer of H₂SO₄ was observed. HCl addition to the feed solution up to a maximum concentration of 0.5 M increases Bi(III) extraction. Further increase in HCl concentration causes a decrease in Bi(III) transfer. Likewise, the concentration of Cyanex 921 in the SLM organic phase which produced the maximum Bi(III) extraction was found to be 0.3 M. The performance of H₂O and 0.2 M H₂SO₄ as stripping solutions was evaluated, and it was found that only H₂SO₄ enabled Bi(III) transfer.     

Removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions by alkaline-earth metal phosphates

The possibility of utilization of calcium or magnesium phosphates of various composition for heavy and non-ferrous metal extraction from aqueous solutions has been studied. The efficiency of the phosphates in removal of Pb(II), Cr(III) and Fe(III) ions has been shown to decrease in the following sequence: Mg₃(PO₄)₂>MgNH₄PO₄>Ca₃(PO₄)₂>CaHPO₄>Ca₁₀(PO₄)₆(OH)₂ which is inverse to their hydrolytic stability series. It has been established that phosphates of non-apatite structure are capable of binding up to 12 mmol g⁻¹ of the named heavy metals by a chemical interaction. Hydroxyapatite interacts with the polyvalent metal ions via either the above mentioned or ion-exchange mechanism, depending on preparation method used for the apatite and the nature of metal.

The effect of temperature on the extraction of FE(III) by dehydrated castor oil fatty acids (DCOFA) has been studied in the temperature range 283–313 K at 1.0M constant ionic strength (NaClO₄). The temperature dependence of the conditional constant of extraction is given in the form: ln K_ext=31.95 − 12800(1/T). Also, it was found that the average thermodynamic parameters, ΔH°_ext, ΔG°_ext, and ΔS°_ext are 106.5 kJ/mole, 27.3 kJ/mole, and 0.3 kJ. mole⁻¹.K⁻¹, respectively. The extracted species in toluene solution were identified as FeR₃.HR and Fe(OH)R₂, where HR represents the fatty acid used.     

Radiation chemical formation and precipitation of Turnbull blue from Fe(III)-oxalate

The radiation chemical analogue of the light induced formation of Turnbull blue, K[Fe(II)Fe(III)(CN)₆], from K₃[Fe(III)(oxalate)₃] and K₃[Fe(III)(CN)₆] was investigated by pulse radiolysis. The kinetic analysis revealed a two-step process: after a pseudo-first order reaction an autocatalytic formation of Turnbull blue takes place. The rate coefficient of the first step is k₈=1.42×10⁵ M⁻¹ s⁻¹. The incubation time of precipitation was also determined.     

Extraction with 8-quinolinol and mixed anionic additives using ultrasonic irradiation for the catalytic determination of vanadium in freshwaters

Solvent extraction with 8-quinolinol (QN) has been markedly improved by the combined application of ultrasonic irradiation and mixed additives and used for the catalytic determination of vanadium with chlorpromazine in the presence of tartrate. Vanadium in an acidified sample up to 200 ml is extracted twice at pH 3.9–4.3 into two 10-ml portions of CHCl₃ with 0.14 M QN, and then back-extracted at pH 11 into 10 ml of 0.01 M NaOH solution. Each extraction time is 10 min. In the back-extraction, recovery of vanadium over 95% was performed by the addition of a mixed solution of KBr, NaBrO₃ and HNO₃ to the sample and the application of ultrasonic irradiation for 10 (or 5) min. On the other hand, a conventional mechanical shaking without the mixed solution required 60 min for 91% recovery. The proposed method was able to separate vanadium from Ca(II), Mg(II), Al(III), Fe(III), Cu(II), Cr(VI) and NO⁻₂, and has been successfully applied to the determination of vanadium in river and tap waters. The detection limit of vanadium was about 0.03 μg l⁻¹.

Cloud point extraction equilibrium of lanthanum(III), europium(III) and lutetium(III) using di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid and Triton X-100

The cloud point extraction behaviors of lanthanoids(III) (Ln(III) = La(III), Eu(III) and Lu(III)) with and without di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (HDEHP) using Triton X-100 were investigated. It was suggested that the extraction of Ln(III) into the surfactant-rich phase without added chelating agent was caused by the impurities contained in Triton X-100. The extraction percentage more than 91% for all Ln(III) metals was obtained using 3.0 × 10⁻⁵ mol dm⁻³ HDEHP and 2.0% (v/v) Triton X-100. From the equilibrium analysis, it was clarified that Ln(III) was extracted as Ln(DEHP)₃ into the surfactant-rich phase. The extraction constant of Ln(III) with HDEHP and 2.0% (v/v) Triton X-100 were also obtained.

Multi-pumping flow system for the determination, solid-phase extraction and speciation analysis of iron

A multi-pumping flow system (MPFS) for the spectrophotometric determination, solid-phase extraction (SPE) and speciation analysis of iron at a wide range of concentrations is proposed. Chelating (iminodiacetic groups) disks have been used as solid phase. A solenoid valve allows the deviation of the flow towards the chelating disk to carry out SPE procedures. The possibility to combine solenoid micro-pumps with solenoid valves increases the versatility of MPFS. Ammonium thiocyanate has been chosen as chromogenic reagent for Fe(III). The determination of total iron is achieved by the on-line oxidation of iron(II) to iron(III) with a hydrogen peroxide stream.

A mass calibration was run within the range 0.01–1.75 μg. The detection limit (3s_b/S) was 0.01 μg. The repeatability (R.S.D.) was estimated as 1.6% after 10-fold processing of 2 ml of 0.5 mg l⁻¹ Fe solution. When SPE was not required, two linear calibration graph within the ranges 0.05–10 and 0.2–15 mg l⁻¹ for the determination of iron(III) and total iron, respectively, were obtained. The proposed procedure was validated by analysis of certified reference materials. The analytical features were compared with those obtained exploiting MSFIA.

An improved extraction chromatographic resin for the separation of uranium from acidic nitrate media

The preparation and characterization of a new extraction chromatographic resin exhibiting extraordinarily strong retention of hexavalent uranyl ion over a wide range of nitric acid concentrations and very high selectivity for U(VI) over Fe(III) and numerous other cations is described. This new material (designated U/TEVA-2) comprises a novel liquid stationary phase consisting of an equimolar mixture of diamyl amylphosphonate (DA[AP]) and Cyanex 923^® (a commercially available trialkyl-phosphine oxide, TRPO) sorbed on silanized silica or Amberchrom CG-71. Cyanex 923 is shown to be preferable to a related TRPO, Cyanex 925^®, due to its lower viscosity and higher selectivity for U(VI) over Fe(III). The retention of uranyl nitrate by the U/TEVA-2 resin, as measured by the k′ values (number of free column values to peak maximum) is >5000 from approximately 0.1 to 8 M HNO₃. The ability of the new resin to strongly and selectively retain U(VI) from such a wide range of acid concentrations, along with its favorable physical properties, make it a good candidate for application in the separation and preconcentration of U(VI) from complex environmental, biological, and nuclear waste samples for subsequent determination.     

Solvent extraction of arsenic from acid medium using zinc hexamethylenedithiocarbamate as an extractant

Using zinc hexamethylenedithiocarbamate (Zn(HMDC)₂) and flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) and/or flow injection hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry (FI-HGAAS), solvent extraction of As(III) from HCl and H₂SO₄ media into 2,6-dimethyl-4-heptanone (diisobutyl ketone, DIBK) was examined. Arsenic(III) was quantitatively extracted with 2.41×10⁻³ mol l⁻¹ Zn(HMDC)₂ from about 0.004 (pH 2.4) to 4 mol l⁻¹ HCl and H₂SO₄ aqueous solutions. The logarithmic conditional extraction constant of As(HMDC)₃ in the HCl–DIBK system was determined to be 8.3±0.7, by the measurement of the distribution ratios of Zn(II) and As(III). The effectiveness of the proposed extraction method was ascertained in the determination of As in geochemical standard reference materials supplied by the Geological Survey of Japan. Furthermore, the analysis of arsenic in procedural blanks was 0.083±0.003 μg l⁻¹.     

8-Hydroxyquinoline anchored to silica gel via new moderate size linker: synthesis and applications as a metal ion collector for their flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination

The silica gel modified with (3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane) was reacted with 5-formyl-8-hydroxyquinoline (FHOQ_x) to anchor 8-quinolinol ligand on the silica gel. It was characterised with cross polarisation magic angle spinning (CPMAS) NMR and diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transformation (DRIFT) spectroscopy and used for the preconcentration of Cu(II), Pb(II), Ni(II), Fe(III), Cd(II), Zn(II) and Co(II) prior to their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The surface area of the modified silica gel has been found to be 227 m² g⁻¹ and the two pKa values as 3.8 and 8.0. The optimum pH ranges for quantitative sorption are 4.0–7.0, 4.5–7.0, 3.0–6.0, 5.0–8.0, 5.0–8.0, 5.0–8.0 and 4.0–7.0 for Cu, Pb, Fe, Zn, Co, Ni and Cd, respectively. All the metals can be desorbed with 2.5 mol l⁻¹ HCl or HNO₃. The sorption capacity for these metal ions is in range of 92–448.0 μmol g⁻¹ and follows the order Cd3, NaCl, NaBr, Na₂SO₄ and Na₃PO₄, glycine, sodium citrate, EDTA, humic acid and cations Ca(II), Mg(II), Mn(II) and Cr(III) in the sorption of all the seven metal ions are reported. The preconcentration factors are 150, 250, 200, 300, 250, 300 and 200 for Cd, Co, Zn, Cu, Pb, Fe and Ni, respectively and t_1/2 values <1 min except for Ni. The 95% extraction by batch method takes ≤25 min. The simultaneous enrichment and determination of all the metals are possible if the total load of the metal ions is less than sorption capacity. In river water samples all these metal ions were enriched with the present ligand anchored silica gel and determined with flame atomic absorption spectrometer (R.S.D.≤6.4%). Cobalt contents of pharmaceutical samples (vitamin tablet) were preconcentrated with the present chelating silica gel and estimated by flame AAS, with R.S.D.1.4%. The results are in the good agreement with the certified value, 1.99 μg g⁻¹ of the tablets. Iron and copper in certified reference materials (synthetic) SLRS-4 and SLEW-3 have been enriched with the modified silica gel and estimated with R.S.D.<5%.
