The Mo is recovered from the chloride leach solution by solvent extraction, and the Cr and Fe are recovered together by precipitation.
Results of the two-step extraction process (Table II) showed that Ta was successfully separated (~ Ta in MIBK) from Nb by this solvent extraction method. …
In this study, we try to provide a comprehensive review of the whole hydrometallurgical process, including the basic information of PCBs, pre-treatment, leaching, purification and recovery of metals. Particularly, the state-of-the-art technologies in this area and potential alternatives from other related areas, ...
Ion exchange has traditionally been employed for the purification of water and the removal of metal contaminants from dilute waste streams. More recently, its use in removing trace metallic impurities from hydrometallurgical process streams (with typical background metal concentrations of 50–100 g/L) has increased substantially.
