recovery of gold and other valuable metals from electronic scrap involves a complex metallurgical flow sheet and requires state-of-the-art recovery technologies that are available in large-scale, integrated smelter and refinery operations. at the end of their use, electronic and other electrical product scrap offer an important recycling potential for the secondary supply of gold and silver int...

Biosorption of heavy metals can be an effective process for the removal and recovery of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions. In this study, the batch removal of nickel (II) ions from aqueous solution under different experimental conditions using activated carbon prepared of red alga Gracilaria was investigated in this study. The nickel (II) uptake was dependent on initial pH and initial nic...

The direct reagentless electrochemical detection of recombinant firefly luciferase binding with gold electrode modified with nickel ions has been carried out. Self-assembly of molecules of functional disulfide containing chelating moieties on the gold electrode was monitored by contact angle measurements and confirmed by electrochemical data as three times decrease of electric double layer capa...

An extraction-spectrophotometric method for determination of nickel at sub ppm level using 2[(2-mercaptophenylimino)methyl]phenol (MPMP) as the new extractant is described. The reagent reacts with nickel(II) at pH > 10 and form a 1:2 brown complex, which is extracted into chloroform. The complex has a maximum absorption at 421 nm with the molar absorptivity of 2.41 × 10 M cm. Beer’s law is obey...

We evaluated the effectiveness of nickel and palladium with or without added potassium persulfate as matrix modifiers for the determination of total arsenic in urine. Complete recovery of pure aqueous solutions of As(III), As(V), cacodylic acid (DMA), monomethylarsinic acid (MMA), and o-arsanilic acid was attained by using both nickel and palladium modifiers. Combined arsenobetaine and arsenoch...
