Abstract
aqueous ammonia, respectively. An efficient solvometallurgical flowsheet is proposed for the separation and recovery of iron(iii), lead(ii) and zinc(ii) from ethaline using commercial extractants. Moreover, the process was upscaled in a countercurrent mixer-settler set-up resulting in successful separation and purification.
