Abstract
An improved method for selectively rcovering Ge from acidic solution containing Ge and typically Zn, As, Cd, Sb, In, Cu and Fe (II) by multistage, countercurrent liquid-liquid extraction is described. The extractant used in the organic phase is an oxime, for example, 5,8-diethyl-7-hydroxy-6-dodecanone oxime, mixed with at least one alkylphosphoric acid, for example either di-2-ethylhexyl phosphate alone or admixed with mono-2-ethylhexyl phosphate, dissolved in a hydrocarbon diluent. This mixed system shows better efficiency and selectivity for germanium than known systems using either oximes or alkylphosphoric acids separately.
