Abstract
Transport of tervalent REEs — Sc, Y, Ce, Eu, Gd, Tm, Yb — from nitrate medium through a liquid membrane containing TBP in n-dodecane, impregnated on a flat-sheet nucleoporous support, has been studied as a function of time and initial metal concentration, salting-out agent concentration and pH of the feed phase. Influences of various complexing agents dissolved in the strip phase was investigated, too. Adding a suitable amount of EDTA into the feed phase, separation of binary mixtures of REEs was experimentally achieved.
