Özet
In the present study, the recovery of Cu2+ from the resulting actual leach solution after the leaching of malachite ore in perchloric acid solutions was examined by applying the solvent extraction method. The organic phase was prepared using Acorga M5640 and kerosene. The effects of the initial pH of solution, extractant concentration, Cu2+ concentration, temperature, and stirring speed on the extraction process were investigated. It was determined that the extraction yield increased with an increase in the extractant concentration, initial pH of aqueous solution, stirring speed, and temperature, and with a decrease in the concentration of Cu2+. To prevent or minimize Zn2+ transfer to the organic phase and to ensure maximum Cu2+ extraction from the aqueous phase, the optimal values for the initial pH of the aqueous phase, initial concentration of Cu2+, extractant concentration, temperature, and stirring speed were selected to be 1, 0.152 g/L, 4% (v/v), 25 degrees C, and 400 rpm, respectively. The stoichiometry and mechanism of the extraction process were determined applying the equilibrium slope method. The changes in the Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy were determined. The changes in these thermodynamic parameters were calculated to be - 3.87 kJ/mol, 64.67 kJ/mol, and 0.23 kJ/(mol K), respectively.Graphical Abstract The extraction percentage of Cu2+ increases substantially when the initial pH of the leach solution increases from 0.1 to 1. The further increase in the initial pH above 1 does not create an increase in the extraction extent of Cu2+. When the initial pH of the leach solution is higher than 1, the amount of Zn2+ transferred from the aqueous phase to the organic phase increases significantly.
