Abstract

A mathematical model for the transport of Ce(IV) from hydrochloric acid solutions through dispersion flat combined liquid membrane (DFCLM) with contain 2-ethyl hexyl phosphonic acid-mono-2-ethyl hexyl ester (P507) as the carrier, dissolved in kerosene as the membrane solution have been studied. This process of facilitated transport, based on membrane technology, is a variation on the conventional technique of solvent extraction and may be described mathematically using Fick’s second law. The equations for transport velocity are derived considering the diffusion of P507 and its metallic complexes through the liquid membrane. In this work, the system is considered to be in a transient state, and chemical reaction between Ce(IV) and the carrier to take place only at the solvent–aqueous interfaces. Model concentration profiles are obtained for the Ce(IV), from which extraction velocities are predicted. The experimental and simulated Ce(IV) extractions showed similar tendencies for a high Ce(IV) concentration and acidity case.The model results indicate that high initial Ce(IV) concentrations and acidity both have detrimental effects on Ce(IV) extraction and stripping. The diffusion coefficient of Ce(IV) in the membrane and the thickness of diffusion layer between feed phase and membrane phase are obtained and the values are 6.31 × 10-8 m2·s-1 and 31.2 μm, respectively. The results are in good agreement with experimental results.

Fig.2  Diagram of Ce(IV) transport through the dispersion combined liquid membrane. HR represents the carrier within the membrane, which in this case is P507. CeR2(HR2)2 represents the organometallic compound, H+ is the hydrogen ion and Ce4+, the uncomplexed Ce(IV) ( A and B are the boundaries of the membrane phase )
Fig.3  Principle of DFCLM process
Fig.4  Effect of acidity in the feed phase on transport of Ce(IV) in the feed phase.The transport rate of Ce(IV) decreases when the acidity in the feed phase increased from 0.01 to 0.50 mol·L-1, and a maximum transport rate observed at acidity of 0.1 mol·L-1 is 93.1% during 75 min. Above the acidity of 0.1 mol·L-1 in the feed phase, the transport rate of Ce(IV) decreases to 61.2%
Fig.5  Effect of initial concentrations of Ce(IV) on transport of Ce(IV). When the Ce(IV) concentration were 0.8 × 10-4 mol·L-1, 1.0 × 10-4 mol·L-1, 1.3 × 10-4 mol·L-1 and 2.0 × 10-4 mol·L-1, the transport rate was up to 97.2%, 93.5%, 86.1% and 70.9% in 75 min. The transport rate was up to 97.7% in 55 min, when initial concentration of Ce(IV) was adjusted to 0.3 × 10-4 mol·L-1, and after 55 min Ce(IV) was hardly determined
Fig.6  Comparison between experimental and model(II). the relationship between 1/PC and [H+]3 are examined to be linear. The value of R2 is 0.9601, which is in good agreement with the theory. The slope and intercept of the line are 2.03 × 106 s·L4· (m·mol4)-1 and 3.20 × 104 s·m-1
