In this work, the usability of oleic acid as extractant for the gain of copper by solvent extraction method from aqueous solutions was examined. The effects of the solvent type, temperature, organic phase/aqueous phase ratio, stirring speed, and initial pH value on the extraction efficiency were studied. It was determined that the recovery efficiency of copper is low in case of using a solvent, while it is higher in case of using only oleic acid. It was observed that the amount of copper removed aqueous phase increased with increasing the stirring speed and initial pH value.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessOleic acidpHSolvent extractionCopper extractionExtraction efficienciesInitial pH valueLeach solutionsOrganic phaseRecovery efficiencySolvent extraction methodsStirring speedCopperConference Object29679712-s2.0-84901911418N/A
