Abstract
A new method is reported for the determination of trace levels of Ti(I V) in water by coflotation and polargraphy. Ti(IV) is preconcentrated and separated by coflotation using aluminium hydroxide as coprecipitan t and sodium oleate as surfactant. Polarographic determination of tita nium content in the froth is based on the catalytic wave of Ti(IV) in the presence of chlorate and oxalate. The effect of various cations an d anions on the flotation and determination of titanium has been inves tigated. The method has been applied to estimation of titanium in natu ral fresh water samples.
