The effective separation factors can be achieved when the complexing agent is added to the aqueous phase of the extraction system. The complexing agent lactic acid can be effectively recycled using tributyl phosphate (TBP) as extractant, by the use of a countercurrent extraction process, and the chemical oxygen demand (COD) value in the raffinate is 57.7 mg/L, which meets the emission standards of pollutants from rare earths industry. Thus, the simple and environment-friendly complexing method has been proved to be an effective strategy for separating light rare earths, and provides a positive influence on the purification of La(III).展开更多

The results indicate that P204 （D2EHPA） is an effective extractant for the extraction of molybdenum. The extraction of Mo is more than 90 % at pH of 0.5, contact time of 10 min, and organic-to- aqueous phase （O/A） ratio of 1：1 with 10 vol% P204 （D2EHPA）. Molybdenum in the loaded organic phase can be effectively stripped with ammonium acid carbonate solution, and the stripping of molybdenum with 60 g.L-1 ammonium acid carbonate solution is 94.67 % at O/A ratio of 2：1 and contact time of 10 min.展开更多
