Abstract

Extraction behaviour of silver from nitric acid solutions by Cyanex 301 as an extractant was examined. Detailed studies have been conducted to evaluate the effect of different variables influencing the extraction such as concentration of nitric acid and extractant, phase ratio(O/A) and synergism of mixed extractant. The extraction behaviour of associated metals namely Ca, Al, Fe, Zn and Sr has been investigated. The extraction results show that Ag can be extracted effectively by Cyanex 301 and selectively extracted from 3.0M $HNO_3$ using 5% Cyanex 301. Impurity metals loaded in organic phase can be effective scrubbed by 4.0M HCl. Finally, pure silver solution can be obtained efficiently by thiourea as a stripping reagent.

질산용액중에서 Cyanex 301에 의한 은(Ag)의 추출 거동을 고찰하였다. Ag의 추출에 영향을 미칠 수 있는 질산 농도, 추출제 농도, 상비(O/A) 및 혼합추출제 효과 등에 대하여 조사하였고, Ca, Al, Fe, Zn, Sr 등 불순물 성분과의 분리성에 대해서도 고찰하였다. 실험결과, 질산 3.0M 용액에서 5% Cyanex 301을 사용할 경우에 Ag의 추출율 및 불순물과의 분리성면에서 가장 효과적이었다. 유기상중의 불순물 제거를 위해서 4.0 M이하 염산용액에서 세정을 실시하는 것이 효과적이었고, 티오요소를 탈거제로 사용함으로써 순수한 Ag 용액을 얻을 수 있었다.
