A new, sensitive and fast dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with micro-solid phase extraction (μ-SPE) was developed for determination of zearalenone (ZEN) in wheat samples. The DLLME was performed using acetonitrile/water (80:20 v/v) as the disperser solvent and 1-octanol as the extracting solvent.  The acetonitrile/water (80:20 v/v) solvent was also used to extract ZEN f...

An experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, CCl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + CCl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. The effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry...

Liquid-liquid extraction is a widespread separation technique with applications in the analytical and the organic chemistry laboratory (13). A problem often tackled in textbooks is the efficiency of several extractions using small portions of solvent in relation to a single extraction with a volume of solvent equal to the sum of the small portions. I t is shown in most textbooks, with the aid o...

thallium is widely found in nature, but the only inorganic stones full of this element are crookesite and lorandit. it isalso found in pyrites of copper, lead and inorganic stones. the element and its compositions are toxic and harmful to theenvironment; therefore, its application requires caution and further research. it is important to develop sensitive andaccurate analytical methods to deter...

a new carboxylic acid extractant, named 2-(dibutylcarbamoyl)benzoic acid, is prepared and its potential for selective solvent extraction and recovery of lead ions from industrial samples was investigated. the slope analysis indicated that the lead ions are extracted by formation of 1:2 metal to ligand complexes. the effect of the parameters influencing the extraction efficiency including kind o...

the solvent extraction of gallium from a concentrated jajarm bayer process liquor containing 164.90 g/l of na2o, 86.70 g/l of al2o3 and 106.02 ppm of gallium was investigated using 10 vol.% kelex100, a 7-alkyl substituted-8 hydroxyquinoline as an extractant, 10 vol.% etanol as a modifier and kerosene as a diluent. at (vo :va = 1.0:1.0) organic to aqueous phase ratio and at room temperature, 93....

This review aims to provide an overview of homogeneous liquid-liquid extraction (HLLE) and dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) methods and their potential use in inorganic analysis. Relevant applications to the determination of metal ions, metalloids and organometals are included. The phase separation mechanisms of these unconventional solvent extraction techniques are discussed. T...

a sensitive, selective and effective ionic liquid-based single drop microextraction technique was developed by using ionic liquid, 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate, c6mimpf6, coupled with electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (etaas) for the determination of copper and silver in environmental samples. dithizone was used as chelating agent. several factors that influence t...

platinum extraction from different secondary sources has been experimentally tested by many researchers. in this article, dissolution of platinum in aqua-regia solution from two types of spent catalysts (reforming and nitric acid production) was kinetically studied. a variety of kinetic models for heterogeneous solid-liquid reactions, including homogeneous diffusion model, shrinking core model,...
