Abstract |
The separation of praseodymium and dysprosium has been studied by solvent extraction using fatty acid series such as hexanoic acid, octanoic acid, 2-ethylhexanoic acid, decanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, tetradecanoic acid, hexadecanoic acid, octadecanoic acid, and oleic acid as an extractant in kerosene as a diluent. In this study, we want to know extractive trend depending on the carbon chain length and the pH of aqueous phase.
The results obtained from solvent extraction of praseodymium and dysprosium using fatty acids are as follows;the pH0.5 of dysprosium is from 4.93 to 5.94, and that of praseodymium is from 4.24 to 5.34. The pH0.5 of them is increased with increasing the length of the carbon chain of the fatty acid. Using 1.5 M octanoic acid as an extractant, we can get the highest separation factor of praseodymium and dysprosium that is 49. |
