    Comparison of the Antimony Cementation from Chloride Media Using Various Cementators

    This study compares the cementation performance of metallic iron, metallic aluminum, and metallic tin in terms of the reaction conditions and parameters in synthetic antimony chloride solutions. The effects on the antimony recovery (%) caused by the cementators\" types, stirring speed, reaction time, and temperatures were explored thoroughly. The cementation kinetics of antimony were also explored for each cementator. The activation energies were determined to be 10.99, 9.09, and 13.58 kJ mol(-1) for Al, Fe, and Sn, respectively. The results reveal that the reaction is diffusion controlled, and comparable results were obtained for each cementator. At 25 degrees C, 40 mg of iron powder was found to reduce all antimony ions (i.e., approx. 99% recovery), but even when 100 mg of Al and Sn cementators were used, the antimony recovery did not reach 100%. This result shows that iron is the best candidate to cement antimony out of the solution.

    Palladium recovery from spent Pd plating solutions using Lewatit TP 214 resin
    (2022-03-01) ÇETİNER, BURCU NİLGÜN; AKTAŞ, SERDAR; ÇETİNER B. N., Yegul E. U., Zeytuncu Gökoğlu B., AKTAŞ S.
    This study aims to explore the recovery of palladium (Pd(II)) ions using Lewatit TP 214 resins. Waste Pd(II) ions with ammonia complex procured from a precious metal plating were selected as the source solution. In the experimental studies, two stock solutions of 60 ppm Pd(II) with a pH value of 4.0 and 7.5 were prepared as initial solutions. The experiments were performed by altering four parameters: solution pH, time 15-180 min, temperature 25 degrees C-60 degrees C, and amount of resin 100-400 mg. It was proved that the recovery percentage increased with higher temperature and resin at lower pH values. The Pd(II) recovery percentage increased with a temperature rise, reaching 100% after 40 min at pH 4.0 and 60 degrees C. On the other hand, a bit lower efficiency (95%) was attained after 180 min at pH 7.5 and 60 degrees C. Using Lewatit TP 214, the computed activation energies for Pd(II) recovery are 17.73 and 15.62 kJ/mol at pH 4.0 and 7.5, respectively. Considering these activation energy values, a mixed mechanism dominated the recovery of Pd(II).
