리튬이온 배터리(LIB) 제조를 위한 리튬의 사용이 점차 증가함에 따라 그에 따라 발생되는 리튬이온배터리 폐기가 증가될 것으로 사료된다. 이에 따라 폐배터리를 재활용을 하기위한 용매 추출을 통한 재활용에 대한 활발한 연구가 니켈, 코발트 및 망간과 같은 유가금속을 제거한 후 얻은 폐 용액에서 리튬의 회수가 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 폐이차전지 재활용공정 후 발생되는 폐액에서 리튬을 회수하기위해 추출제 Di-(2-ethylhexyl) hosphoricacid(D2EHPA)와 등유의 개질제 Tri-n-butyphosphate(TBP)를 선택적으로 혼합하여 추출조건을 최적화하였다. 폐액에는 리튬과 고농도의 나트륨(Li⁺ = 0.5% ~ 1%, Na⁺ = 3 ~ 6.5%)을 함유하고 있었으며, 리튬의 추출은 유기용매의 다른 구성에서 최종적으로 20% D2EHPA + 20% TBP + 60% 등유로 구성된 유기용매에서 효과적인 추출을 조건을 확립하였다. NaOH의 비누화를 이용한 SX 시스템에서는 평형 pH 4~4.5에서 유기 대 수성(O/A)이 5일 때 약 95% 이상의 리튬이 선택적으로 추출되는 것을 확인하였다. 적은 양의 나트륨으로 염화리튬에서 탄산리튬 분말을 얻기 위해 고순도 중탄산암모늄을 처리하였다. 최종적으로 처리된 탄산리튬에 여러번 세수를 통하여 미량의 나트륨을 제거하고 고순도 탄산리튬 분말(순도 99.2%)을 제조하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 폐이차전지 재활용공정에서 발생되는 폐액을 활용하여 탄산리튬의 효율적인 제조방법을 확인하였다.

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been extensively investigated as promising alternatives to conventional organic solvents such as sulfolane and N,N-dimethylformamide for the selective extraction of aromatic hydrocarbons from the $C_6-C_{10}$ hydrocarbon mixtures produced from the cracking processes of naphtha and light oils. The most important advantage of ILs over conventional organic solvents is that they are immiscible with aliphatic hydrocarbons, and thus the back extraction of ILs from the raffinate phases and top hydrocarbon-rich layers is not necessary. In this paper, a brief review on the state of the art in the utilization of ILs for aromatics separation is presented.

In this study, we report the industrial application of an efficient technology for the recovery of gallic acid from Chinese nutgall processing wastewater. The recovery of gallic acid by industrial scale extraction and stripping devices was performed, with tributyl phosphate as the extractant and kerosene as the diluent. The results showed that the theoretical extraction stage was four, while the theoretical stripping stage was two. A closed-cycle system was studied for the continuous countercurrent extraction and stripping, with a five-stage extraction device and a three-stage reflux stripping device. The results showed that the multistage extraction-stripping system could steadily run for a long period, the average gallic acid level in the raffinate was $0.85g{\cdot}L^{-1}$, and the gallic acid content recovered in the strip liquor was higher than $120g{\cdot}L^{-1}$. The average extraction yield of gallic acid was 94.14%. When the strip liquor was used as raw material for production, the average production yield increased by 8.64%. In addition, after extraction, the $COD_{Cr}$ in the wastewater decreased by 38.19%, and the biodegradability of wastewater improved by 1.6 times. This study provided a new impetus for the sustainable development of the Chinese nutgall processing industry.

The Separation of two amino acids, phenylalanine and tryptophan, was carried out using laboratory simulated moving bed (SMB) chromatography. The SMB process consisted of four zones, with each zone having 2 columns. The triangle theory was used to obtain the operating conditions for the SMB. The mass transfer coefficients of the two amino acids were obtained from the best-fit values by comparing simulated and experimental pulse data. The competitive adsorption isotherms of the two amino acids were obtained by single and binary frontal analyses, taking into consideration the competition between the two components. A competitive Langmuir isotherm, obtained from single-component frontal chromatography, was used in the first run, and the isotherm from binary frontal chromatography in the second, with the flow rate of zone 1 modified to improve the purity. Compared to the first and second runs, the competitive Langmuir isotherm from the binary frontal chromatography Showed good agreement with the experimental results. Also, adjusting the flow rate in zone 1 increased the purity of the products. The purities of the phenylalanine in the raffinate and the tryptophan in the extract were 99.84 and $99.99\%$, respectively.

A study has been made on the recovery of nitric acid and valuable metals such as Cu, Sn, Pb from the spent nitric etching solutions. The nitric acid was extracted effectively by TBP but the heavy metals such as Fe, Cu, Sn, Pb were not extracted by TBP from the spent nitric etching solutions. From the experimental results, 95% of nitric acid in spent etching solution was extracted at O:A ratio of 3:1 with five stage by 60% TBP and 98% of nitric acid was stripped from the loaded organic phase at O:A ratio of 1:1 with four stages by distilled water. After extracting nitric acid, Cu was recovered as a metal by electrowinning effectively and Sn was successfully removed by precipitation method by adjusting the pH of raffinate solution. Finally, Pb was recovered by cementation with iron scrap at $65^{\circ}C$. Parameters controlling the cementation process, such as temperature, pH and the effect of the additives were investigated.

A simulation study for finding purity changes of extract and raffinate as well as the best purity of (S)-ketoprofen in simulated moving bed (SMB) was performed with changing parameters of $m_2$ and $m_3$ from triangle theory. Aspen simulator allowed separation process simulation of (R)- and (S)-ketoprofen in SMB and compared 4-bed SMB and 8-bed SMB based on the same Henry constant and mass transfer coefficient. The 4-bed SMB consisted of 4 columns (200 mm of length, 10 mm of diameter) and the 8-bed SMB constructed by 8 columns (100 mm of length, 10 mm of diameter), and therefore total column length was made the same as 800 mm. Considering purities of both (R)-and (S)-ketoprofen, both 4-bed SMB and 8-bed SMB had the best purity when $m_2$ and $m_3$ were on 12.0 and 13.0 in the center of triangle. Taking only (S)-ketoprofen into account, 4-bed SMB as well as 8-bed SMB had the best purity when $m_2$ and $m_3$ were on 10.9 and 12.6 in the left outside triangle, and their purities were 93.3 % for 4-bed SMB and 96.9 % for 8-bed SMB.

Solvent extraction and stripping experiments were conducted to separate iron from a spent $FeCl_3$ etching solution containing nickel. In the extraction, PC88A, MIBK and Alamine336 were tested as an extractant in various diluents. Alamine336 salt in toluene led to the highest extraction percentage of iron. Stripping percentage of iron from the loaded organic by Alamine336 increased with decreasing HCl conentration of stripping solution and with increasing volume ratio of aqueous to organic. In the operation of bench scale mixer-settler, 7 extraction stage with 1.0M Alamine336 salt in toluene and 10 stripping stage with 0.01M HCl solution resulted in a stripped solution with 133g/L of iron and in a raffinate with most of nickel together with a small amount of iron when the flow rate ratio of organic to aqueous was 7.

폐촉매 염산 침출액으로부터 백금을 회수하기 위해 벤치규모의 Karr 왕복 추출기를 사용하였다. 최적의 유량속도와 진동 빈도에서 철과 백금은 TBP와 Aliquat 336에 의해 모두 추출되었다. 같은 진동 빈도에서 유량을 조절함으로써 염산과 과염소산을 사용하여 철과 백금을 모두 탈거하였다. TEHA를 사용하여 추출여액으로부터 염산을 추출하는 경우 컬럼 추출기의 안정성을 유지하기 어려웠다. 컬럼 추출기와 mixer-settler에 의한 조업 결과를 비교하였다.
