Topic:
Wastewater treatment
The removal of heavy metals from sewage sludge using the combined influence of hydrothermal pretreatment and chelate extraction was tested. The classical method of batch extraction with chelates and the advanced hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP) extraction process with chelates were compared. Both...Read more

AliCy as Extractant to Remove Iron from Copper-Free Extreme AMD for Further Extraction of Zinc
Nobahar A., Melka A., Neves L., Carlier J., (Corresponding) Costa M.
Topic:
Wastewater treatment
A previous work showed that copper can be specifically extracted from acid mine drainage (AMD) classified as high-acid and extreme-metals (pH 1.19, ~63 g/L Fe, ~6.5 g/L Al, ~5.3 g/L Cu, ~1.9 g/L Zn and ~0.1 g/L Mn), using 30% (v/v) Acorga M5640 in Shell GTL (a kerosene like solvent) as extractant...Read more
