Liquid-liquid extraction and reversed phase chromatographic behaviour of some 3d metal ions using bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)dithiophosphinic acid (Cyanex 301).
Studies have been carried out on the extraction behavior of some metal ions of the first transition series using bis(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl)dithiophosphinic acid (Cyanex 301) from mineral acid media. The effect of various parameters influencing the extraction such as the nature of the diluent, concentration of the acid and the extractant on the distribution has been investigated. Based on the distribution data some binary separations have been proposed. A flow sheet of a scheme is given for the recovery of manganese free cobalt from a spent catalyst used in the manufacture of poly(ethyleneterepthalate).
