Because of casehardenign effect of amorphous paclitaxel, residual solvents, methylene chloride and emthanol could not be reduced to the maximum value allowed, 600 ppm and 3,000 ppm, in accord with the guidelines issued by the International Conference on Harmonization (ICH, 1997), using rotary evaporation and successive drying in a vacuum oven. However, methylene chloride and methanol were reduced to 486 ppm and 403 ppm, respectively using supercritical $CO_2$ on purified paclitaxel. The optimum pressure and operating time were 80 bar and 30 min at fixed operating temperature ($40^{circ}C$). This approach serves as a novel application of supercritical fluid extraction to remove residual solvents from active pharmaceutical ingredients.

Distribution diagram of $FeCl_2$ in HCl solution indicated that $FeCl^+$ was a predominant species in strong HCl solution up to 10 M. Solvent extraction of $FeCl_2$ has been performed in the HCl concentration range from 5 to 9 M by using Alamine336 as an extractant. Interaction parameter of $FeCl^+$ for Bromley equation was estimated from our solvent extraction data. This parameter thus obtained in our study can be employed in calculating the activity coefficient of $FeCl^+$ in high concentration of HCl.

Solvent extraction reaction of Zn(II) by Alamine336 from strong HCl solution up to 10 M was identified by analyzing the data reported in the literature. The equilibrium constant of this reaction was estimated by considering the complex formation between zinc and chloride ion. The necessary thermodynamic parameters, such as equilibrium constant for the formation of complexes and the interaction parameters, were evaluated from the thermodynamic data reported in the literature. The following solvent extraction reaction and the equilibrium constant was obtained by considering the activity coefficients of solutes present in the aqueous phase with Bromley equation. $Zn^{2+}\;2Cl^{-}\;+\;R_3NHCl_{org}\;=\;ZnCl_3R_3NH_{org},\;K_{ex}\;=\;6.33\;{\times}\;10^2$ There was a good agreement between measured and calculated distribution coefficients of Zn(II).

Magnesium is widely used as a lightweight alloy for car engine components and case of cellular phone. Extraction technologies of magnesium are divided to fused salt electrolysis process and thermal reduction process. In this study, electrolysis magnesium is prepared by fused salt electrolysis process with magnesium chloride. We compared two kinds of mixed salt at 7V. As a result, 47% of current efficiency was obtained by electrolyzing KCl/NaCl/$MgCl_2$ mixed salt bath at $760^{\circ}C$, and purity of the prepared magnesium was over 98%. With this study, we can scale up fused salt electrolysis device and accumulate basic data which will be needed for designing an electrolysis cell.

The present experimental study proposed two ionic liquids (ILs) namely [Aliquat 336] [$HSO_4$] (prepared and characterized at our laboratory) and Cyphos 101 IL (supplied by Cytec Company) dissolved in two different diluents such as DCM (di-chloro-methane) and toluene applied for PMs extraction. The first IL [Aliquat 336] [$HSO_4$] prepared and confirmed the formation of final product by using FT-IR and TGA studies. The primary experiment in solvent extraction processing is kinetic effect; 0 to 30 time varied for PMs by using two ILs and confirmed the optimized extraction equilibrium time. This study was conducted for PMs (Pt, Rh and Cu) extraction and separation from each other by using proposed ILs. This is the primary study of the utilizing green solvents such as ILs as an extractant system for Pt, Rh and Cu extraction and possible separation.

This study aimed to prepare a W/O nonionic microemulsion system(MEs) consisting of OP-4[polyoxyethylene(4) nonylphenol], OP-7[polyoxyethylene(7) nonylphenol], 1-hexanol, D2EHPA, kerosene and HCl solution and applied to the extraction of La(III) from chloride aqueous solution within the polysulfone hollow fiber contactor (HFC),laboratory-scale experiments were carried out to investigate the recovery of La(III) using as-prepared microemulsion from the simulation wastewater containing La(III),Al(III) and Fe(III). The right weight ratio(Rs) of OP-4 to OP-7 was firstly confirmed through determination of the solubilization capacity of HCl solution(W0,HCl) in microemulsion, the effect of several factors such as the HCl concentration, temperature and effective extraction time on the extraction efficiency of La(III) was discussed. Results showed that the acceptable Rs was 4:6 to prepare the W/O MEs. The extraction yield of La(III) increased with the increasing of HCl concentration, temperature and effective extraction time and reaches to 97.3% while using five-stage modules. The recovery yield of La(III) from simulation La-bearing wastewater was 90.6%.

In this study, conventional solvent extraction (CSE), microwave-assisted extraction (MAE), and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) were compared for the recovery of paclitaxel from biomass. As a result of investigating the effect of the extraction solvent type (acetone, chloroform, ethanol, methanol, methylene chloride), methanol was the most suitable for all extraction methods. In the case of MAE and UAE using methanol, most of the paclitaxel (> 95%) was recovered by only one extraction. The recovery rate of paclitaxel increased with the increase of extraction temperature (25-45 ℃), microwave power (50-150 W), and ultrasonic power (180-380 W) for MAE and UAE. In addition, SEM analysis showed that the biomass surface structure was slightly corrugated in CSE, while in the MAE and UAE, it was very rough and destroyed by strong impact.

Solvent extraction experiments have been performed to separate Nd and Pr from chloride leaching solution of monazite sand using single Cyanex272 and mixed extractants as PC88A+Cyanex272 and PC88A+TBP. For this purpose, the effect of the concentration of extractants on the extraction and separation of the two metals were studied by varying the pH of aqueous solution. In the experimental ranges conducted in this study, the distribution coefficients of Nd were higher than those of Pr. In Cyanex272 system, our results indicated that concentration of extractant and initial pH did not affect distribution coefficients, but separation factor was increased with increasing initial pH. In binary extractant system, distribution coefficients were lower than those of single PC88A system, whereas separation factor was similar in both mixed and single extractant system.

Solvent extraction experiments have been performed to separate Nd and Sm from chloride solution with PC88A. The effect of the saponification of PC88A on the extraction and separation of the two metals were studied. In the experimental ranges conducted in this study, the distribution coefficients of Sm were higher than those of Nd and separation factor between them increased with the equilibrium pH of aqueous solution. Saponification of PC88A enhanced the distribution coefficients of Sm and Nd and the separation factor. A chemical model was developed to predict the distribution coefficients of metals and separation factor from the initial extraction conditions. The measured distribution coefficients of Nd and Sm with PC88A and saponified PC88A agreed well with those calculated in this study.

Solvent extraction experiments have been performed to separate Gd and Nd from chloride solution with PC88A and saponified PC88A. In the experimental ranges conducted in this study, the extraction percentage of Gd was higher than that of Nd. Use of 40% saponified PC88A increased the distribution coefficients of Gd and Nd. A chemical model was developed to predict the distribution coefficients of the two metals from the initial extraction conditions. The measured distribution coefficients of Gd and Nd with PC88A and saponified PC88A agreed well with those calculated in this study.
