Abstract
The work describes a comparative study with various high molecular weight t ertiary amines to develop a hydrometallurgical method for the extraction an d recovery of copper (II) from different aqueous acidic media. Limits such as, the effect of acid, extractant, and stripping agents concentration, tim e of contact, and diverse ions were optimized. Maximum percentage extractio n and recovery of copper (II) ions were achieved with 5% solution of trioct ylamine in benzene.
