Keep in mind the importance of cadmium, cobalt and nickel ions as environmentally and economically strategic heavy metals, the application of two acidic extractants, named bis(2-diethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (DEHPA) and 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA), was assessed for the extraction-recovery of these ions from leached solution of spent rechargeable Ni-Cd batteries. The conditions for leach...

The extraction of Gadolinium (Gd) from perchlorate and nitrate media in 1,2-dichloroethane(C2H4Cl2), carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) and chloroform (CHCl3) by mixtures of 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone (HTTA) and a crown ether benzo-15-crown-5 (B15C5) is investigated.The composition of the extracted species is determined as Gd(TTA)3.nB15C5 (n=1 in nitratemedium and n=2 in perchlorate medium). The values...

Abstract Sustainable management of spent lithium‐ion batteries, LIBs, is an urgent and critical challenge due to the number such devices reaching end‐of‐life. Recycling can offer a path for recovery valuable raw materials as lithium cobalt, whose supply critical. Thus, it mandatory develop efficient ways selective Li Co from cathode degradation processes. In this study most updated organic acid...

Channel waveguides based on a polymer, 6-fluorinated-dianhydride/epoxy, which is actively doped with a Nd complex, Nd(thenoyltrifluoroacetone)(3) 1,10-phenanthroline, are fabricated by a simple and reproducible procedure, spin coating a photodefinable cladding polymer onto a thermally oxidized silicon wafer, photopatterning, backfilling with the active core polymer, and spin coating with an upp...
