ABSTRACT

 

Extraction equilibria of cobalt (II) from aqueous chloride solutions with 3-hexylaminopyridine (3-HAP) dissolved in kerosene was investigated. Results showed that KCl salt can greatly improve the cobalt (II) extraction efficiency. The distribution coefficients were significantly dependent on the concentration of chloride ions and the pH value in the aqueous phase because of mechanism of extraction and complex formation in the organic phase. With initial pH value of pH 1–2 and chloride ion concentration 1.0 mol L−1, the maximum extraction (>90%) was observed. In addition, 2.0 mol L−1–2.5 mol L−1 concentrations of hydrochloric acid in aqueous phase increase the extraction efficiency. Extraction equilibrium by 3-HAP with cobalt (II) was established within 10 min.
