Description
The invention relates to a process for the separation of copper values rrom an acidic aqueous solution thereof by liquid-liquid extraction with an extractant comprising an organi.c solvent and a dissolved hydroxy-oxime and to novel oximes. Oxime extractants are known from:
(A) British patent specification 1,322,532, disclosing the use of a hydroxy-oxime of the general formula : A-C(=NOH)-R, in which R represents an aliphatic group and A a cyclic organic group carrying as substituents at least a hydroxyl group at a ring carbon atom in a 2-position ` - the number 1 being assigned to the ring carbon atom to which the -C(=NOH)-R group is attached - and an . organic group D, ; 15 (B) U.S. patent specification 3,428,449, disclosing ' the use of a 2-hydroxybenzophenone oxime substituted s by a saturated or ethylenically unsaturated aliphatic group or groups or the corresponding ether group or : groups, and (C) German Offenlegungsschrift 2,334,901, disclosing the use of a salicylaldoxime of the general formula : H

The extraction can be conducted continuously by bringing the acidic aqueous solution into contact with a solution of the hydroxy-oxime in, for example, kerosine, preferably by vigorous stirring.

U.S. patent specification 3,428,449 discloses that the use of the 2-hydroxybenzophenone oximes stated sub(B) in combination with aliphatic alpha-hydroxy-oximes i of the general formula OH NOH
R1 _ C - C - R2 ~' ~0838Z8 in which Rl, R2 and R3 may be any of a variety of organlc radicals such as aliphatic and alkylaryl radicals, whilè R3 may also represent a hydrogen atom, results in an improvement in the rate of the copper extraction.
It has now been found that this improvement is also achieved, and sometimes to a greater extent, with other combinations of oximes.
The present invention provides a process for the separation of copper values from an acidic aqueous solution thereof by liquid-liquid extraction with an extractant comprising an organic solvent, and dissolved therein (1) a hydroxyoxime of the general formula A - C(=NOH) - R (I) in which R represents a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic group and A an aromatic group carrying as substituents a hydroxyl group at a ring carbon atom in a
2-position, the number 1 being assigned to the ring carbon atom to which the -C(=NOH)-R group is attached, and optionally at least one organic group D, and/or (2) a 2-hydroxybenzophenone oxime substituted by a saturated or ethylenically unsaturated aliphatic group or groups or the corresponding ether group or groups, in combination with a dissolved (a) hydrocarbyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime, (b) 2-hydroxyaldoxime in which the ~rbon atom carrying the hydroxyl group also carries two hydrocarbyl groups or one hydrocarbyl group and one hydrogen atom, (c) 2-hydroxycycloalkanone oxime in which the cycloaliphatic ring also carries at least..one organic group, or (d) aliphatic alpha-hydroxy-oxime of the general formula OH NOH
Rl _ C - C - R2 (II) in..which Rl, R2 and.R3 each represent an organic group and R3 may also represent a hydrogen atom with the proviso that an aliphatic alpha-hydroxy-oxime of the general formula II is present only whenever a hydroxyoxime of the general formula I is also present.
The process according to the present invention has a considerable synergistic effect - compared with the use of the oximes stated sub (1) and (2) in the absence of those sub (a), (b), (c) and (d) - on the extraction rate, which has very favourable economic con-sequences. There is hardly any unfavourable effect, if at all, on the selectivity of the e~traction with respect to iron, so that aqueous solutions also containing iron values are very suitable starting solutions. me acidic aqueous ~;
solution preferably has a pH between O and 3.
me molar percentage in which the oximes stated -sub (a), (b), (c) and/or (d) - calculated on the oximes ~ -stated sub (1) and/or (2) - are applied is not critical.

be established by means of simple extraction ~ ~
.: :
iO83828 experiments, in which this percentage is increased, starting from, say, 0.1. The best percentage is that at which the extraction rate has reached a constant level. This percentage will nearly always be between 1 and 100. Preference will be given to percentages between 2 and 20 and particularly between 4 and 12.
The hydrocarbyl group in the hydrocarbyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime may be, for example, an alkyl, aromatic or a cycloalkyl group, whether or not substituted or containing hetero atoms. Very good results have been obtained with hydrocarbyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes possessing an alkyl group, particularly with alkyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes and alkylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes; the extraction rates achieved with application of each of these two groups of oximes in the process of the -nvention are usually - higher than those obtained with a mixture of oximes used according to U.S. patent specification 3,428,449.
The number of carbon atoms in the alkyl groups is preferably larger than five. Excellent results have been obtained with n-dodecyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime and p-n-decylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime.
Other examples of such oximes are p-n-dodecylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime, p-n-nonylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime, p-tert-nonylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone ; oxime, n-nonyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime, 2-methylnonyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime and p-n-decylbenzyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime.
:, ~, 1~8382~3 The hydrocarbyl groups present in the 2-hydroxy-aldoximes stated sub (b) are, for example, alkyl, alkenyl, aromatic or cycloalkyl groups. The presence Or substituents or heteroatoms - for example, oxygen atoms - in these hydrocarbyl groups is not precluded. The 2-hydroxyaldoximes are preferably 2-hydroxyalkanal oximes, in particular those with eight to 20 carbon atoms per molecule.
Particularly high extraction rates have been achieved with 2-hydroxy-2-methylpentadecanal oxime, 2-hexyl-2-hydroxy-decanal oxime and 2-hydroxy-2-pentylnonanal oxime.
Other examples of these oximes are 2-hydroxy-2-methyltetradecanal oxime, 2-ethyl-2-hydroxydodecanal oxime, 2-butyl-2-hydroxydecanal oxime, 2-hydroxy-2-pentyldecanal oxime and 2-hydroxy-2- ~ -1~ pentylundecanal oxime.
I ~I5 The organic group or groups attached to the cycloaliphatic - ring of the 2-hydroxycycloalkanone ;oxime stated sub (c) may be, for example, aromatic, cycloaliphatic, ,~ alkenyl or - what is preferred - alkyl groups. The presence of substituents or hetero atoms, for example, oxygen atoms, in the:;e hydrocarbyl groups is not precluded.
2-Hydroxycyclododecanone oximes, particularly those in which the ring carries one or more alkyl groups are preferred. Very high extraction rates have been achieved with ~-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes, particularly with 2-hydroxy-2-methylcyclododecanone oxime and 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethylcyclododecanone oxlme. Other examples of theee 2-hydroxycycloalkanone ,~,~....
1083~g28 oximes are 2-hydroxy-4-nonylcycloheXanone oxime, 4-d~Jdecyl-2-hydroxy-cyclohexanone oxime, 2-hydroxy-3-methylcyclododeca-none oxime, 2-ethyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oxime, 2,6,10-triethyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oxime and 2-hydroxy-6-nonylcyclododecanone oxime.
R , R2 and R3 in the general formula II may each represent, for example, an aromatic, a cycloaliphatic or an alkyl group. The presence of substituents or hetero atoms, for example, oxygen atoms, is not precluded.
R1 and R2 preferably represent branched alkyl groups or unsaturated hydrocarbyl groups, containing from six to 20 carbon atoms. R1 and R2 are preferably the same; when these are alkyl groups, they are preferably secondary alkyl groups. R3 preferably represents a hydrogen atom. High extraction rates have been achieved with 5,8-diethyl-7-hydroxy-6-dodecanone oxime. Other ; examples of compounds of the general formula II are 8-hydroxy-7-tetradecanone oxime and 6,9-diethyl-7-hydroxy-8-tetradecanone oxime .
The aromatic group A in the general formula I may be carbocyclic or heterocyclic. Examples of groups A are phenyl, naphthyl, furyl and pyridyl groups.
Preference is given to a phenyl group.
The organic group or groups D atached to the aromatic group A may be, for example, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, alkaryl, aralkyl, alkenyl, alkapolyenyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, aryloxy, aralkoxy or alkoxycarbonyl groups.
, Preference is given to alkyl groups. The alkyl group or groups may be straight or branched. The hydroxy-oxime of the general formula I preferably contains at least seven carbon atoms in the alkyl group(s) attached to the aromatic group A and in particular not more than 14. More generally, the number of carbon atoms in the group or groups D may range from, for example, one to 20. The number Or carbon atoms is the sum of the number of carbon atoms present in the joint alkyl groups. Examples of suitable alkyl groups D are :
ethyl, l-methylbutyl, 1-methylpentyl, 1-methylhexyl, 1-methylheptyl, 1-methyloctyl, 1-methyldecyl, 1-methyltetradecyl and tert-nonyl (a mixture of branched nonyl groups derived from propene trimer). The aromatic group A
may also carry primary amino, secondary amino and tertiary amino groups and inorganic substituents, for example, chlorine atoms and nitro groups.
An aliphatic group represented by R in the general formula I may be, for example, an alkyl, alkenyl or alkapolyenyl group. The aliphatic group R may be straight or branched and it may contain substituents - for example, a phenyl group - and/or hetero atoms - for example, an oxygen atom. A straight group has proved , very favourable as a rule. The number of carbon atoms of the group R may range, for example, from one to 20. An alkyl group is generally preferred. Examples of suitable alkyl groups are: methyl, ethyl, n-pentyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-undecyl, n-tridecy]
and n-heptadecyl. Methyl groups are very suitable, because they impart the highest extraction and stripping rates to the oxime. A benzyl group is also very suitable.
Examples of very suitable hydroxy-oximes are methyl 4-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl ketone oxime, methyl 2-hydroxy-5-tert-no-nylphenyl ketone oxime, n-heptyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyl-hexyl)phenyl ketone oxime, n-octyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylheptyl) phenyl ketone oxime, n-nonyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyloctyl)phenyl ketone oxime and n-nonyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylhexyl)phenyl ketone oxime. Further examples are n-tridecyl 2-hydroxy-5-methyl-phenyl ketone oxime, methyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylhexyl)phenyl ketone oxime, ethyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylundecyl)phenyl ketone oxime, n-pentyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyldecyl)phenyl ketone oxime, n-undecyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylpentyl)phenyl ketone oxime, n-heptyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyltetradecyl)phenyl ; ketone oxime, n-undecyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylheptyl)phenyl ketone oxime and n-heptadecyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyl-heptyl)phenyl ketone oxime. Excellent results have been obtained with methyl 2-hydroxy-5-tert-nonylphenyl ketone oxime and benzyl 2-hydroxy-5-tert-nonyl-phenyl ketone oxime. These two compounds may be prepared using as a precursor 4-tert-nonylphenol, obtained by alkylating phenol with propene trimer.
Examples of hydroxy-oximes of the general formula I in which R represents a hydrogen atom are 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-benzaldoxime, 5-dodecyl-2-hydroxybenzaldoxime, 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-5-octylbenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-pentylbenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-5-tert- nonylbenzaldoxime and 2-hydroxy-3,5-di(1-methyl-butyl)benzaldoxime Very high extraction rates have been obtained with the last mentioned oxime.
; The 2-hydroxybenzophenone oximes stated sub (2) are those disclosed in U.S. Patent Specification 3,428,449.
Among these oximes those substituted in one 5-position are preferred, particularly those carrying alkyl substituents.
Very good results have been obtained with 2-hydroxy-5-tert-nonylben-zophenone oxime.
Excellent results have been obtained with the ~` following combinations of oximes: methyl 2-hydroxy-5-tert-nonyl-`-I phenyl ketone oxime with n-dodecyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime or p-n-decylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime;
.
benzyl 2-hydroxy-5-';ert-nonylphenyl ketone oxime with ~ r~-dodecyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime or 2-hydroxy-2-methylpenta-:~t~` ~ decanal oxime; 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyloctyl)benzophenone oxime with n-dodecyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime, 2-hydroxy-2-methylpentadecanal oxime or 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethy~-cyclododecanone oxime; 2-hydroxy-3,5-di(1-methylbutyl)benzaldoxime and n-dodecyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximme.
A favourable volume ratio of the extractant to the acidic aqueous solution has been found to be 1:3 ,7~ ~
--25 ~ to 3:1. However, ratios outside this range may also be used. As a rule~ the extraction proceeds smoothly ~ between 15 and 35C. However, higher or lower temperatures, ,,1 ' .: .

for example, between 0C and 15C and 35C and 75C,are not precluded.
Preferably, the mutual miscibility of the acidic aqueous solution and the organic solvent should not exceed 5 %v, and in particular it should be lower than 1 %v. Suitable solvents are, for example, halogenated solvents, such as chlorof'rm, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,2-dichloropropane and di(2-chloroethyl) ether, and in particular hydrocarbons, for example, kerosine, toluene and the xylenes.
2-Alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which 10 carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted - for example, 2-hydroxy-2-methylcyclododecanone oxime -, 2,6,10-trialkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which the three alkyl groups are the same and eight carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted - for example, 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethylcyclododecanone oxime -and 4-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclohexanone oximes - for example, 4-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclohexanone oximes in which the alkyl group has more than three carbon atoms, such as in 2-hydroxy-4-n-pentylcyclohexanone oxime - are novel compounds. The novel compounds may be prepared by reaction of the corresponding ethylenically unsaturated precursor with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 2-hydroxyimino hydrogen sulphate formed.
-- ~3 --Thus, a 2-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oxime in which 10 carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted is formed by reacting the corresponding 2-alkylcyclododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1-alkyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclododecyl hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-2-me-thylcyclododecanone oxime is formed by reacting 2-methylcyclodo:
decene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1-methyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclododecyl hydrogen sulphate formed. 2,6,10-Trialkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which the three alkyl groups are the same and eight carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted, is formed by reacting the corresponding 2,6,10-trialkyl-1-cy-clododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1,5,9-trialkyl-2-hydroxyimino hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethyl-cyclododecanone oxime is formed by reacting 2,6,10-trimethyl-1-cy-clododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1,5,9-trimethyl-2-hydroxy-imino hydrogen sulphate formed. 4-Alkyl-2-hydroxycy-clohexanone oximes - among which those in which the alkyl group has more than three carbon atoms - are formed by reacting the corresponding 4-alkyl-1-cyclohexene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of 5-alkyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-4-n-pentylcyclohexanone oxime is ~ormed by re~cting 4-n-pentyl-1-cyclohexene ' ' , .
with sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 5-n-pentyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate formed.
The invention is further illustrated by means of the following examples. The extractions described in the exampleG were conducted in a separatory funnel consisting of a graduated, straight-walled vessel with a capacity of 0.25 l, equipped with a double-paddle stirrer and provided at the bottom with a stop-cock for draining. The two starting liquids were introduced via the top opening. The starting aqueous solution contained copper sulphate and ferric sulphate in concentrations Or 63 and 36 mmol/l, respectively, and so much free sulphuric acid that the pH was 1.90. The organic solvent -~ 15 was a kerosine fraction having an atmospheric boiling range from 210C to 240C. A mixture of 100 ml of the starting aqueous solution and 100 ml Or the starting organic extractant was stirred in the funnel at a temperature of 25C at a rate of 2000 rev/min. At : .:
various moments samples of the mixture being stirred ~ were taken. The two phases of the samples were separated ;~ and the percentage of the ~copper extracted, calculated on equilibrium, was determined.

The hydrocarbyl group in the hydrocarbyl hydroxymethyl ketone oxime may be, for example, an alkyl, aromatic or a cycloalkyl group, whether or not substituted or containing hetero atoms. Very good results have been obtained with hydrocarbyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes possessing an alkyl group, particularly with alkyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes and alkylphenyl hydroxymethyl ketone oximes; the extraction rates achieved with application of each of these two groups of oximes in the process of the -nvention are usually - higher than those obtained with a mixture of oximes used according to U.S. patent specification 3,428,449.

The presence of substituents or hetero atoms, for example, oxygen atoms, in the:;e hydrocarbyl groups is not precluded.
2-Hydroxycyclododecanone oximes, particularly those in which the ring carries one or more alkyl groups are preferred. Very high extraction rates have been achieved with ~-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes, particularly with 2-hydroxy-2-methylcyclododecanone oxime and 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethylcyclododecanone oxlme.

R1 and R2 preferably represent branched alkyl groups or unsaturated hydrocarbyl groups, containing from six to 20 carbon atoms. R1 and R2 are preferably the same; when these are alkyl groups, they are preferably secondary alkyl groups. R3 preferably represents a hydrogen atom. High extraction rates have been achieved with 5,8-diethyl-7-hydroxy-6-dodecanone oxime. Other ; examples of compounds of the general formula II are 8-hydroxy-7-tetradecanone oxime and 6,9-diethyl-7-hydroxy-8-tetradecanone oxime .

, Preference is given to alkyl groups. The alkyl group or groups may be straight or branched. The hydroxy-oxime of the general formula I preferably contains at least seven carbon atoms in the alkyl group(s) attached to the aromatic group A and in particular not more than 14. More generally, the number of carbon atoms in the group or groups D may range from, for example, one to 20.

A straight group has proved , very favourable as a rule. The number of carbon atoms of the group R may range, for example, from one to 20. An alkyl group is generally preferred. Examples of suitable alkyl groups are: methyl, ethyl, n-pentyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-nonyl, n-undecyl, n-tridecy]
and n-heptadecyl. Methyl groups are very suitable, because they impart the highest extraction and stripping rates to the oxime. A benzyl group is also very suitable.
Examples of very suitable hydroxy-oximes are methyl 4-butyl-2-hydroxyphenyl ketone oxime, methyl 2-hydroxy-5-tert-no-nylphenyl ketone oxime, n-heptyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyl-hexyl)phenyl ketone oxime, n-octyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylheptyl) phenyl ketone oxime, n-nonyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methyloctyl)phenyl ketone oxime and n-nonyl 2-hydroxy-5-(1-methylhexyl)phenyl ketone oxime.

These two compounds may be prepared using as a precursor 4-tert-nonylphenol, obtained by alkylating phenol with propene trimer.
Examples of hydroxy-oximes of the general formula I in which R represents a hydrogen atom are 5-tert-butyl-2-hydroxy-benzaldoxime, 5-dodecyl-2-hydroxybenzaldoxime, 3,5-di-tert-butyl-2-hydroxybenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-5-octylbenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-3,5-di-tert-pentylbenzaldoxime, 2-hydroxy-5-tert- nonylbenzaldoxime and 2-hydroxy-3,5-di(1-methyl-butyl)benzaldoxime Very high extraction rates have been obtained with the last mentioned oxime.

A favourable volume ratio of the extractant to the acidic aqueous solution has been found to be 1:3 ,7~ ~

for example, between 0C and 15C and 35C and 75C,are not precluded.
Preferably, the mutual miscibility of the acidic aqueous solution and the organic solvent should not exceed 5 %v, and in particular it should be lower than 1 %v. Suitable solvents are, for example, halogenated solvents, such as chlorof'rm, 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,2-dichloropropane and di(2-chloroethyl) ether, and in particular hydrocarbons, for example, kerosine, toluene and the xylenes.
2-Alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which 10 carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted - for example, 2-hydroxy-2-methylcyclododecanone oxime -, 2,6,10-trialkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which the three alkyl groups are the same and eight carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted - for example, 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethylcyclododecanone oxime -and 4-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclohexanone oximes - for example, 4-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclohexanone oximes in which the alkyl group has more than three carbon atoms, such as in 2-hydroxy-4-n-pentylcyclohexanone oxime - are novel compounds. The novel compounds may be prepared by reaction of the corresponding ethylenically unsaturated precursor with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 2-hydroxyimino hydrogen sulphate formed.
-- ~3 --Thus, a 2-alkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oxime in which 10 carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted is formed by reacting the corresponding 2-alkylcyclododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1-alkyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclododecyl hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-2-me-thylcyclododecanone oxime is formed by reacting 2-methylcyclodo:
decene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1-methyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclododecyl hydrogen sulphate formed. 2,6,10-Trialkyl-2-hydroxycyclododecanone oximes in which the three alkyl groups are the same and eight carbon atoms of the ring are unsubstituted, is formed by reacting the corresponding 2,6,10-trialkyl-1-cy-clododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1,5,9-trialkyl-2-hydroxyimino hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-2,6,10-trimethyl-cyclododecanone oxime is formed by reacting 2,6,10-trimethyl-1-cy-clododecene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 1,5,9-trimethyl-2-hydroxy-imino hydrogen sulphate formed. 4-Alkyl-2-hydroxycy-clohexanone oximes - among which those in which the alkyl group has more than three carbon atoms - are formed by reacting the corresponding 4-alkyl-1-cyclohexene with nitrosyl sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of 5-alkyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate formed. For example, 2-hydroxy-4-n-pentylcyclohexanone oxime is ~ormed by re~cting 4-n-pentyl-1-cyclohexene ' ' , .
with sulphuric acid, followed by reaction with water of the 5-n-pentyl-2-hydroxyiminocyclohexyl hydrogen sulphate formed.
The invention is further illustrated by means of the following examples. The extractions described in the exampleG were conducted in a separatory funnel consisting of a graduated, straight-walled vessel with a capacity of 0.25 l, equipped with a double-paddle stirrer and provided at the bottom with a stop-cock for draining. The two starting liquids were introduced via the top opening. The starting aqueous solution contained copper sulphate and ferric sulphate in concentrations Or 63 and 36 mmol/l, respectively, and so much free sulphuric acid that the pH was 1.90. The organic solvent -~ 15 was a kerosine fraction having an atmospheric boiling range from 210C to 240C. A mixture of 100 ml of the starting aqueous solution and 100 ml Or the starting organic extractant was stirred in the funnel at a temperature of 25C at a rate of 2000 rev/min. At : .:
various moments samples of the mixture being stirred ~ were taken. The two phases of the samples were separated ;~ and the percentage of the ~copper extracted, calculated on equilibrium, was determined.
