Introduction to Separation Methods

Chelate Extraction for Metal Ion Separation

Description

Chelate extraction is a way to separate metal ions by using an organic ligand, or chelating agent, to form an uncharged metal complex. The chelating agent needs hydrophobic groups, and it must act as a weak acid so it can lose a proton and bind to the metal.

Most organic ligands used for this met...

Transcript

Metal ions can be separated by complexation with organic ligands to form uncharged chelates.

The chelating agent must contain hydrophobic groups and behave as a weak acid, losing a proton to bind with the metal.

The metal–ligand complex is formed in the aqueous phase and extracted into the organic phase.

The distribution coe...
