Abstract

A novel separation method, i.e. electro-assisted solvent extraction, based on the principles of two-phase electrochemistry, has been demonstrated for the successful separation of Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Cd²⁺ ions. 2-Heptanone has been used as the organic solvent for the transfer of Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Cd²⁺ facilitated by 2,2′;6′,2″-terpyridine. It is shown that extraction efficiency depends on the concentration ratio of ligand to metal ion and importantly, on the applied interfacial potential difference. It was found that Ni²⁺ (not Cd²⁺ or Cu²⁺) extraction is suppressed in the presence of Mg²⁺ ion due to competitive complexation.
