Abstract Liquid-liquid extraction is one of the most used separation methods in chemical technology for recovery and separation of metal ions, other inorganic and organic substances. It is known that for extraction of Zn(II) the most frequently used extractants are D2EHPA, Aliquat 336, etc., diluted in an organic solvent. The use of these reagents does not meet the principles of “green” chemistry. Thus, in the present work, the extraction system based on polypropylene glycol 425 and sodium chloride for the extraction of Zn(II) ions from aqueous solutions is proposed. Equilibrium values of the distribution coefficient in the proposed aqueous two-phase system have been determined. Dependence of metal distribution coefficient on time of phase contact is obtained, time to reach equilibrium was 10 minutes. The isotherm of Zn(II) extraction obtained in the proposed system is a straight line, which indicates the independence of the distribution coefficient from the initial concentration of metal in the solution. The received experimental data can be used at the creation of “green” schemes of processing of Ni-MH batteries.

This work presents the experimental study results of Fe(III) and Zn(II) extraction by ionic liquids based on trioctylmethylammonium chloride and rhodanide in an aqueous two-phase system based on polypropylene glycol 425 and sodium chloride. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that these extractants are effective for the extraction of metals from aqueous solutions, and aqueous two-phase systems represent a “green” alternative to traditional extraction systems.

Abstract To date, there are a number of methods for selective extraction of transition metal ions based on liquid-liquid extraction. One of the most interesting methods of metal ions extraction is liquid-liquid extraction with application of ionic liquids based on quaternary ammonium bases and organic acid residues, in particular, organophosphorus, diluted with organic solvent (toluene, xylene, kerosene, etc.). However, using of organic solvents does not correspond to the modern tendencies of harmful effects on the environment reducing. Thus, we propose to use Aliquat 336 and D2EHPA-based ionic liquid for extraction of transition metal ions in ecologically safe aqueous two-phase system based on polypropylene glycol 425 and sodium chloride. Di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphate trioctylmethylammonium has been shown to yield more than 80% Fe(III) and Y(III) ions.
