Transport Study of Cu （Ⅱ） Through Hollow Fiber Supported Liquid Membrane

The transport of Cu(II)from aqueous solutions containing buffer media through hollow fiber supported liquid membrane(HFSLM)using di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid(D2EHPA)dissolved in kerosene as membrane phase and hydrochloric acid as striping phase was investigated.A set of factors were studied,including tube side velocity,shell side velocity,pH of the feed phase,Cu(II)concentration in the feed phase,buffer media concentration and D2EHPA concentration in the membrane phase.Experimental results indicate that the mass transfer coefficient increases with increasing both carrier concentration in the organic phase and flow rates on the tube side and shell side,and decreases with increasing initial Cu(II)concentration in the feed phase.With increasing pH value and acetate concentration in the feed phase,the mass transfer coefficient reaches a maximum value then decreases.The optimal operating conditions are obtained at pH value of 4.44 and 0.1 mol·L -1 acetic ion concentration in feed phase,and carrier volume fraction of around 10%in kerosene as organic phase.A mathematical model of the transport mechanism through HFSLM is developed.The modeled results agree well with the experimental ones.

Separation of Trivalent Samarium through Facilitated Stripping Dispersion Hollow Fiber Liquid Membrane Using p204 as Mobile Carrier

The separation of Sm（III） through stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane system （SDHFLM） containing feed phase adding acetate buffer solution and dispersion solution with HC1 solution as the stripping solution and membrane solution of di（2-ethylhexyl） phosphoric acid （p204） dissolved in kerosene, has been studied. A set of factors were studied, including pH value, initial concentration of Sm（III） and different ionic strength of feed phase, volume ratio of membrane solution and stripping solution （O/W）, HC1 concentration, carrier concentration, different stripping agents of dispersion phase on Sm（III） separation. Experimental results indicate that the optimum separa- tion conditions of Sm（III） were obtained as that HC1 concentration was 4.00 tool/L, p204 concentration was 0.150 mol/L, and volume ratio of membrane solution and stripping solution （O/W） was 1.00 in the dispersion phase, and pH value was 4.60 in the feed phase. Ionic strength had no obvious effect on separation of Sm（III）. When initial Sm（III） concentration was 1.00 × 10^-4 mol/L, the separation rate of Sm（III） was up to 93.5% in 85 min. The kinetic equation was developed in terms of the law of mass diffusion and the theory of interface chemistry. The modeled results were in good agreement with the experiment data.

Stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane containing carrier PC-88A and HNO_3 for the extraction of Sm^(3+)

Stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane system（SDHFLM） containing feed phase adding acetate buffer solution and dispersion solution with HNO_3 solution as the stripping solution and membrane solution of 2-ethyl hexyl phosphoric acid-mono-2-ethylhexyl ester（PC-88A） dissolved in kerosene,has been studied for the extraction of Sm^（3＋）.Many factors including pH value, volume ratio of membrane solution to stripping solution（OAV） and carrier concentration on Sm^（3＋） extraction were investigated. Experimental results indicate that the optimum extraction conditions of Sm^（3＋） were obtained as that PC-88A concentration was 0.120 mol/L,and OAV was 1.00 in the dispersion phase,and pH value was 4.80 in the feed phase.When initial Sm^（3＋） concentration was 1.20×10^（-4） mol/L,the extraction percentage of Sm^（3＋） was up to 92.8%in 160 min.
