Description

The extraction coefficient value of Ru(III) between 1-pentanol and an aqueous 5% solution of 1,2,3-benzotriazole in 2M sodium acetate - acetic acid buffer showed a maximum value of E=46 at pH 4.5. The effect of various other parameters on the extraction coefficient of Ru(III) such as solvents, anions, cations, etc. was also studied. The stoichiometry of metal:reagent determined by the method of substoichiometric extraction and slope ratio method was found to be 1:3. Decontamination factors for many elements in the substoichiometric extraction of Ru(III) were also evaluated. (author)
