Effective Parameters in Extraction of Sulfuric Acid by Trioctylamine ( TOA ) as Organic Extractant (original) (raw)

Trioctylamine (TOA) is used as organic extractant in this research. In this study, the effects of several parameters such as concentration of trioctylamine (TOA) as the extractant, concentration of octanol as the modifier, temperature and ratio of organic phase (Vorg) to aqueous phase (Vaq) were investigated. At the end, the stoichiometric coefficients of reaction were estimated by applying slope method analysis. Also, two equations are proposed (developed) for the extraction of sulfuric acid with TOA by statistical modeling.
