Extraction and separation of cadmium(II), iron(III), zinc(II), and europium(III) by Cyanex302 solutions using hollow fiber membrane modules

The mass transfer behaviors of Cd(II), Fe(III), Zn(II), and Eu(III) in sulfuric acid solution using microporous hollow fiber membrane (HFM) containing bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)monothiophosphinic acid (commercial name Cyanex302) were investigated in this paper. The experimental results showed that the values of the mass transfer coefficients (K-w) decreased with an increase of H+ concentration and increased with an increase of extractant Cyanex302 concentration. The mass transfer resistance of Eu3+ was the largest because K-w value of Eu3+ was the smallest. The order of mass transfer rate of metal ions at low pH was Cd > Zn > Fe > Eu. Mixtures of Zn2+ and Eu3+ or of Zn2+ and Cd2+ were well separated in a counter-current circulation experiment using two modules connected in series at different initial acidity and concentration ratio. These results indicate that a hollow fiber membrane extractor is capable of separating the mixture compounds by controlling the acidity of the aqueous solution and by exploiting different mass transfer kinetics. The interfacial activity of Cyanex302 in sulfuric acid solution was measured and interfacial parameters were obtained according to Gibbs adsorption equation.

Synergistic extraction of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) with mixtures of primary amine N1923 and neutral organophosphorous derivatives

Synergistic extraction of zinc(IT) and cadmium(11) from hydrochloric acid solution with primary amine N1923 and neutral organophosphorus derivatives Cyanex 923 and Cyanex 925 is the focus of this paper. Extraction mechanisms are discussed as well as how the acidity of the aqueous phase, the composition of the organic phase, and the experimental temperature affect the rates of extraction of metal ions. Differences between synergistic efficiency of Zn(II) and Cd(II) with mixtures of primary amines N1923 and either Cyanex 923 or Cyanex 925 are observed. The equilibrium constants, the composition, and the formation constants of the extracted complexes as well as the values of the thermodynamic functions are calculated. According to the synergy coefficient formula, the synergy effect on the extraction of Zn(II) is in the following order:N1923 + Cyanex 925 > N1923 + Cyanex 923 This order is reversed in the case of cadmium(II). For the same synergistic system, the extraction rate follows the order: Zn(II) > Cd(II). Furthermore, the stereochemical structures of the various extractants and their effect on metal ion extraction rate are also investigated.

Extraction of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) by using mixtures of primary amine N1923 and organophosphorus acids

The extraction of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) from a chloride medium by mixtures of primary amine N1923 and organophosphorus acids [di-(2-ethylhexyl)-phosphoric acid, 2-ethylhexylphosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester (HEH/EHP), isopropyl phosphonic acid 1-hexyl-4-ethyloctyl ester, bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid, bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) monothiophosphinic acid, and bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) dithiophosphinic acid] has been studied in the present paper. Results show that only the mixtures of N1923 + HEH/EHP and N1923 + Cyanex272 have synergistic effects on zinc(II), but the other mixtures have no evident synergistic effects. All six mixtures have no evident synergistic effects on cadmium(H). A possible explanation of the different extraction abilities is given based on the structure of the extractants. Furthermore, the possibilities of separating zinc(II) and cadmium(II) with these mixtures are investigated according to the extractabilities. It is possible to separate Zn2+ from bulk cadmium with N1923 and HEH/EHP mixtures and separate Cd2+ from bulk zinc with N1923 and Cyanex301 mixtures.

Further hydrogen-bonding interactions consolidate the structural architecture and extend the two-dimensional supramolecular structure into a three-dimensional network.

Luminescent supramolecular polymers: Cd2+-directed polymerization and properties

A family of supramolecular polymers was prepared via Cd2+-directed self-assembly polymerization of his (2,2':6',2 ''-terpyridine)-based ligand monomers, using oligofluorenes and triphenylamine as bridges under mild conditions.

Polymers with oligofluorenes as spacers exhibited blue emission (434-442 nm) in dimethyl acetamide (DMAc) solution, while polymers with triphenylamine as spacer presented an emission peak at 494 nn in DMAc solution. Complexation polymerization of bis(2,2':6',2 ''-terpyridine)-based ligand monomers with cadmium(II) improved fluorescence quantum yields dramatically, and the film PL quantum yields of these polymers were about 0.38-0.54.

Adsorption studies of divalent metal ions with extraction resin containing 1-hexyl-4-ethyloctyl isopropylphosphonic acid

Equilibrium distributions of cobalt(II), nickel(II), zinc(II), cadmium(II), and copper(II) have been studied in the adsorption with extraction resin containing 1-hexyl-4-ethyloctyl isopropylphosphonic acid (HEOPPA) as an extractant from chloride medium. The distribution coefficients are determined as a function of pH. The data are analyzed both graphically and numerically. The extraction of the metal ions can be explained assuming the formation of metal complexes in the resin phase with a general composition ML2(HL)(q). The adsorbed species of the metal ions are proposed to be ML2 and the equilibrium constants are calculated. The efficiency of the resin in the separation of the metal ions is provided according to the separation factors values.
