The separation of platinum and gold from an industrial feed solution

Louw, Talana January 2008 (has links)
In this thesis, the aim was to develop resins which are platinum and gold specific to be utilized for the early removal of these metals from the industrial feed. Efforts were therefore directed towards the synthesis of silica based resins with active centra which were designed for platinum and gold specificity respectively. The large chlorometallate ions in the feed stream were characterized in terms of physical parameters relevant to phase distribution namely distortability (RD), charge density, softness (σ) etc. Matching cations for each of the types were investigated. In order to attempt the design of platinum specific resins different structural amines were used to aminate the silicone precursor and subsequently to fix these onto the silica framework. Two different solvents i.e. alcohol and dmf were used for this process, resulting in two sets of resins with different properties. For gold specific resins, various polyethers were attached to a different type of silicone precursor, which was attached to the silica framework. The design was based on previous experience with these ions with reference to their behaviour towards different types of cations. The platinum species PtCl6 2- and PtCl4 2-, the gold species AuCl4 -, as well as the most important contaminants in the feed stream were typified bearing in mind size, charge, charge density and distortability. Different types of cationic centra having differences in charge density, stereochemical crowding and extent of hydrophobicity were synthesized and tested both as solvent extractants (where possible) and silica based resins. The results indicated that partly screened secondary ammonium cationic resin species, which could be regarded as “intermediate”, proved to be satisfactory both in their high percentage extraction for PtCl4 2- and rejection of contaminants like chlororhodates, chloroiridates(III) and FeCl4 -. It was, however, necessary to work at a redox potential where iridium(IV) in the form of IrCl6 2- is absent. Various 2-aminoalkane resins were prepared with variation in the length of alkane group and synthesized in the two different solvents. The latter resulted in two sets of resins with different compactness also having significantly different properties with reference to platinum specificity, HCl effect and stripping potential. The 2- aminobutane and 2-aminoheptane resins both proved to be very satisfactory platinum specific resins with respect to selectivity, platinum capacity and stripping potential. The various physical parameters could be utilized to accommodate the chemical behaviour. To obtain gold specific resins, experiments were performed with resins having oxygen-donor atoms which can readily be protonated to form onium type cations for example amides and ether oxygen atoms. In the case of the latter, various polyethers with a different number of ether groups (polyether groups linked by ethylene and propylene groups) and variations of hydrophobicity (by substitution) have also been studied. Linked to the polyether groups were alkane and aryl groups. Those having 8 to 10 ether groups and aromatic tail ends proved to be moderately successful in terms of gold capacity and sharp breakthrough curves of their columns, however, platinum could not be very effectively rejected.

Hydrogen selective properties of cesium-hydrogensulphate membranes.

Meyer, Faiek. January 2006 (has links)
<p>Over the past 40 years, research pertaining to membrane technology has lead to the development of a wide range of applications including beverage production, water purification and the separation of dairy products. For the separation of gases, membrane technology is not as widely applied since the production of suitable gas separation membranes is far more challenging than the production of membranes for eg. water purification. Hydrogen is currently produced by recovery technologies incorporated in various chemical processes. Hydrogen is mainly sourced from fossil fuels via steam reformation and coal gasification. Special attention will be given to Underground Coal Gasification since it may be of great importance for the future of South Africa. The main aim of this study was to develop low temperature CsHSO4/SiO2 composite membranes that show significant Idea selectivity towards H2:CO2 and H2:CH4.</p>
