Cobalt And Nickel

Both Cyanex 272 (bis (2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid) and Ionquest 801 (2-ethylhexyl phosphonic acid mono-2-ethylhexyl ester) are commonly used for metal extraction and separation, particularly for zinc, cobalt, and nickel, which are often found together in processing solutions. Detailed metal extractions of zinc, cobalt, and nickel were studied in this paper using Cya-nex 272, Ionquest 801, and their mixtures. It was found that they performed very similarly in zinc selectivity over cobalt. Cyanex 272 performed much better than Ionquest 801 in cobalt separation from nickel. However, very good separation of them was also obtained with Ionquest 801 at its low concentration with separation factors over 4000, indicating high metal loading of cobalt can significantly suppress nickel extraction. Slop analysis proved that two moles of dimeric extractants were needed for one mole extraction of zinc and cobalt, but three moles were needed for the extraction of one mole nickel. A synergistic effect was found between Cyanex 272 and Ionquest 801 for three metal extractions with the synergistic species of M(AB) determined by the Job’s method.

Overall Efficiency

The sludge wastes generated by the metal plating industries are classified as hazardous wastes because of their high concentration of heavy metals. Amongst the various routes for their treatment, the hydrometallurgical processes are highly attractive because they can be tailored to the wide compositional range of such wastes and assure its metals recovery and/or toxicity reduction. In these processes the leaching operation is paramount to the overall efficiency. In this, the mixing of the leaching solution with sludge has to be effective in order to obtain high levels of metal extraction and make the process attractive. Most of the available data refers to laboratory tests. This paper reports on the use of CFD model to optimize the operation of a pilot size leaching tank. The results regarding the velocity field were compared with experimental data and proved that such techniques can be effectively applied to improve the process. A leaching experiment, with the best configuration for the mixing, yielded a high metal extraction, suggesting that this technique can be successfully implemented for the treatment of such wastes.

Certain complex compounds were synthesized by the interaction of Mg(II), Ca(II) and Fe(III) halides with the solvent extracting reagent, Cyanex-272 i.e. bis (2,4,4- trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid as ligand. All the prepared complexes have been characterized on the basis of their molar masses, conductivity, magnetic measurements and infrared and electronic spectral studies. The other physico-chemical properties e.g. colour, decomposition temperature have also been ascertained. Key words: Chanex-272 Bangladesh J. Sci. Ind. Res. 42(4), 475-482, 2007
