Abstract

The solvent extraction of iron ( ) from acidic chloride solutions by decanol in kerosene has been investigated. The solvent extraction results demonstrated that the dissolved iron was present as HFeCl4.2Decanol. Extraction of iron ( ) increased with increased hydrochloric acid concentration in the aqueous phase. On the other hand, titanium ( ) aluminum ( ), calcium ( ) and magnesium ( ) were not extracted under these experimental conditions. IR spectral study of the extracted complex was further used to clarify the nature of the extracted complex. The extracted complex was easy to strip. Using 0, 0.5 and 1 mol.dm-3 HCl as the stripping agents the stripping rate of iron ( ) was above 90%.
