Stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane system(SDHFLM) containing feed phase adding acetate buffer solution and dispersion solution with HNO_3 solution as the stripping solution and membrane solution of 2-ethyl hexyl phosphoric acid-mono-2-ethylhexyl ester(PC-88A) dissolved in kerosene,has been studied for the extraction of Sm^(3+).Many factors including pH value, volume ratio of membrane solution to stripping solution(OAV) and carrier concentration on Sm^(3+) extraction were investigated. Experimental results indicate that the optimum extraction conditions of Sm^(3+) were obtained as that PC-88A concentration was 0.120 mol/L,and OAV was 1.00 in the dispersion phase,and pH value was 4.80 in the feed phase.When initial Sm^(3+) concentration was 1.20×10^(-4) mol/L,the extraction percentage of Sm^(3+) was up to 92.8%in 160 min.
The separation of Sm(III) through stripping dispersion hollow fiber liquid membrane system (SDHFLM) containing feed phase adding acetate buffer solution and dispersion solution with HC1 solution as the stripping solution and membrane solution of di(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (p204) dissolved in kerosene, has been studied. A set of factors were studied, including pH value, initial concentration of Sm(III) and different ionic strength of feed phase, volume ratio of membrane solution and stripping solution (O/W), HC1 concentration, carrier concentration, different stripping agents of dispersion phase on Sm(III) separation. Experimental results indicate that the optimum separa- tion conditions of Sm(III) were obtained as that HC1 concentration was 4.00 tool/L, p204 concentration was 0.150 mol/L, and volume ratio of membrane solution and stripping solution (O/W) was 1.00 in the dispersion phase, and pH value was 4.60 in the feed phase. Ionic strength had no obvious effect on separation of Sm(III). When initial Sm(III) concentration was 1.00 × 10^-4 mol/L, the separation rate of Sm(III) was up to 93.5% in 85 min. The kinetic equation was developed in terms of the law of mass diffusion and the theory of interface chemistry. The modeled results were in good agreement with the experiment data.
