Different parameters affecting the extraction process such as equilibrium time, sulfate concentration, Aliquat 336 concentration, equilibrium p H and the extraction temperature were investigated. Extraction of V(V) and Cr(III) by Aliquat 336 involved anion exchange mechanism, and the extracted species are [(VO2SO4)R4N]org at low equilibrium p H for V(V) and [R4N-Cr(OH)4]org at high equilibrium p H for Cr(III). Calculated thermodynamic parameters show that the extraction process is endothermic reaction for V(V) and exothermic for Cr(III). Also, calculated values of ?Gex and ?Sex indicate that the extraction reactions of V(V) and Cr(III) proceed as non-spontaneous reaction is more random. V(V) and Cr(III) were stripped, precipitated, separated and calcined at 500 °C for 2.0 h to produce the corresponding oxide in pure form after rinsing and drying.展开更多
