In order to develop a process for the recovery of valuable metals from spent LiBs, solvent extraction experiments were performed to separate Cu(II) and/or Co(II) from synthetic hydrochloric acid solutions containing Li(I), Mn(II), and Ni(II). Commercial amines (Alamine 336 and Aliquat 336) were employed and the extraction behavior of the metals was investigated as a function of the concentration of HCl and extractants. The results indicate that HCl concentration affected remarkably the extraction efficiency of the metals. Only Cu(II) was selectively at 1 M HCl concentration, while both Co(II) and Cu(II) was extracted by the amines when HCl concentration was higher than 5 M, leaving the other metal ions in the raffinate. Therefore, it was possible to selectively extract either Cu(II) or Co(II)/Cu(II) by adjusting the HCl concentration.

The several fundamental parameters on the solvent extraction of Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) with dithizone were investigated. The value of $K_{a1}/K_p$ of dithizone(at $25^{\circ}C$) between an aqueous phase and a chloroform was found to be $4.72{\times}10^{-11}$. And the mole ratios of metal ion to dithizone in its metal complexes were determined by mole ratio method. The extractibilities(%) for metal-dithizone chelates were obtained from the extraction equilibria of metal-dithizone complexes between an aqueous phase and a chloroform as follows. Co(II) : 92.3% at pH 8.0 : Cu(II) : 97.1% at pH 4.0 and Zn(II) : 99.0% at pH 7.0. And also, in optimum experimental conditions the extraction constants of Co(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) were examined.

Adsorption characteristics of Ni(II), Co(II) and Ag(I) ions on the Amberite IRN 77 cation exchange resin have been studied to suggest the guide-line for the optimum operation of demineralization process in primary coolant system during the shut-down period of pressurized water reactor(PWR). The adsorption mechanism of each metal ion, Ni(II), Co(II) or Ag(I) ion, on a cation exchange resin was well coincided with Langmuir isotherm. The adsorption and treatment capacities of $H^+$-form resin were higher than those of $Li^+$-form resin. In the continuous ion exchange process for the solution of multi-component system, the selectivity of the resin was in increasing order of Ni(II)${\approx}$Co(II)>Ag(I). In addition, the increase of the flow rate decreased the treatment capacity of the resin as well as the slope of the breakthrough curve.

In In order to remove harmful trace elements such as $Co^{2+}$, $Ni^{2+}$ , $Cr_2O_7\;^{2-}$ from water, we synthesized AN-co-(MMA/IA) according to various mole ratio of monomers and spun by wet-spinning. And multi-functional PAN ion exchangers were prepared by hydrolysis. We observed structure, degree of functionalization, ion exchange capacity, distribution coefficient and mechanical properties for ion exchanger. Anion exchange capacity decreased in 4.5 ~ 4.2 meq/g with increasing of IA content and cation exchange capacity increased in 1.8 ~ 2.2 meq/g. Tensile strength of the ion exchanger increased up to 0.008 mol% IA content and appeared maximum value by 216$kg/cm^2$Distribution coefficient for AN-co-(MMA/IA) ion exchanger appeared maximum value for Co(II), Ni(II) in pH 5-6 range and for Cr(III) in pH 3-4 range. And the adsorption capacity was in the order of Cr(III) > Co(II) > Ni(II) for multicomponent in continuous process.

The incorporation of cobalt into mesoporous molecular sieves MCM-41 and MCM-48 was carried out. Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 were prepared using Co(II) acetate solution adjusted to pH = 3.0 with phosphoric acid by the incipient wetness method. Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) was used to study the local environments of Co(II) incorporated into mesopores. The band around 500 nm in PAS of as-prepared Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 with Co(II) acetate solution was changed to triplet bands around 600 nm. This could be assigned to the 4 A2(F)-> 4T1(P) transition of Co(II) surrounded tetrahedrally by oxygen ions after calcination. It may be attributable to that the octahedral cobalt species containing phosphate ligands in coordination sphere reacting with framework's silanol groups to be dispersed atomically onto the surface of mesoporous molecular sieves as a tetrahedral species. This is unlike that the Co in Co-Cl/MCM41 and direct-synthesized Co-MCM41 transforms to Co oxide phase upon calcination. Co-PO/MCM41 and Co-PO/MCM48 were stable while treated with water.

The cobalt (Co(II)) ion is a main component of alloys and considered to be carcinogenic, especially due to the carcinogenic and toxicological effects in the aquatic environment. The toxic trace of the Co(II) detection was conducted using the infrared photodiode electrode (IPDE) using a working electrode, via the cyclic and square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry. The results indicated a sensitive oxidation peak current of Co(II) on the IPDE. Under the optimal conditions, the common-type glassy carbon, the metal platinum, the carbon paste, and the carbon fiber microelectrode were compared with the IPDE in the electrolyte using the standard Co(II). The IPDE was found to be far superior to the others.

New water soluble and highly electron deficient cobalt(II) tetrakis-(1,2,5,6-tertrafluoro-4-NN'N"-trimethyla-nilinium)-β-octabromoporphyrin [Co II (Br8TTFP)(Y)2] was synthesized and used for the electrocatalytic reduction of dioxygen. The first reduction of synthesized [Co II (Br8TTFP)(Y)2] involves one electron process to give metal centered [Co I (Br8TTFP)(Y)2]. The reduction of potential [E1/2 = -0.32 V] of [Co II (Br8TTFP)(Y)2] shifts positively 370 mV compared with that of [Co II (TTFP)(Y)2] due to the substituted bromide to β-pyrrole positions. The electrochemically reduced [Co I (Br8TTFP)(Y)2] binds dioxygen and catalytically reduces it to HOOH by 2e - transfer. Cyclic and hydrodynamic voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode in dioxygen-saturated aqueous solutions are used to study the electrocatalytic pathway.

A method on the determination of Co(II) after adsorbing of Co(II) on 2-mercaptobenzothiazole-loaded silica gel was studied. The conditions on the separation of Co(II) such as pH of solution, the amount of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole, the flow rate for adsorption, and the desorption solvent were optimized to 9.0, 0.05 g, $10mL\;min^{-1}$ and 1 M $HNO_3$ in ethanol, respectively. Under these optimum conditions, the calibration curve of Co(II) was obtained over concentration range of $2{\sim}120ng\;mL^{-1}$. The detection limit was $0.6ng\;mL^{-1}$. Recovery yields of Co(II) in various natural water samples were more than 90%.

The dipole moments for octahedral [Co(III)-$O_3N_3$], tetrahedral [M(II)-$O_2N_2$] and square planar [M(II)-$O_2N_2$] types complexes are calculated by the expansion method for spherical harmonics using the valence basis sets for the central metal ion and the single basis set orbital ($2p_z$) for ligands. The calculated dipole moments for these complexes are in agreement with the experimental values.
