Solvent extraction of rare earths

Feng Xie, Ting An Zhang, David Dreisinger, Fiona Doyle. A critical review on solvent extraction of rare earths from aqueous solutions.

The distribution coefficient of a metal ion, M, DM (sometimes designated as K), particularly in earlier literature, is given by:

where [M] is the molar concentration of M in the organic phase and [M] is the concentration in the aqueous phase. The separation factor of two different metal ions, M1 and M2, M1/M2, is defined as:

[…] The selectivity order for extracting rare earths from 0.5 M HCl solution with 0.75 M D2EHPA* in toluene was Lu > Yb > Tm > Tb > Eu > Pm > Pr > Ce > La (Peppard and Wason, 1961), with the log of the distribution coefficient (called log K by Peppard et al. (1957a,b)) increasing linearly with the atomic number, Z, of the rare earth.
