RESUMO

In this work microemulsion systems were used to remove chromium from leather tannery sediments. The sludge was treated by a solid-liquid extraction process (acid digestion). The effects of particle size, digestion temperature and digestion time with regards to the efficiency of chromium removal were considered. The raw sludge (3 Mesh) was dried, grounded and sieved. Particles with 3, 14, 65, 100, 200, and 325 Mesh were evaluated. Sludge digestion solutions were prepared using each studied granule size at 25 degrees C, 70 degrees C, and 95 degrees C. Microemulsion extraction experiments to remove chromium III from the acid digestion solution were made according to a Scheffé Net experimental design methodology, using microemulsion systems inside the Winsor II region (System I) and inside the microemulsion region (Winsor IV--System II). A statistical treatment was used to obtain the isoresponse plots. Chromium extraction percentages were up to 73.3% for System I and up to 93.4% for System II.

RESUMO

In this research a surfactant derived from a vegetable oil (coconut oil) was used to remove chromium from a tannery effluent. In the extraction process, a Morris extractor was used. Important variables used in assessing the optimization of the process included agitation speed, solvent rate and total flow rate. The experiments were conducted using a 2(3) factorial design. According to the response from the experimental design, the effects of each variable were calculated and the interactions between them determined. Response surface methodology was employed to study the effects of the studied variables. The optimum operational conditions were: agitation speed, 428 rpm; solvent rate, 0.37; total flow rate, 2.0 l h(-1). After extraction process, a re-extraction study was accomplished and the obtained results showed that chromium could be removed from the microemulsion phase by hydrochloric and sulphuric acidic solutions, what allows its reuse in the leather manufacturing process.

RESUMO

In this work, the use of microemulsion in the extraction of gallium, with Bayer process, has been studied. The studied microemulsion systems were: systems I and II, with saponified coconut oil (SCO) and 4-ethyl,1-methyl,7-octyl,8-hydroxyquinoleine (Kelex-100) as extractants. The extraction essays by microemulsion were carried out by applying an experimental planning method whose microemulsion points were prepared within an experimental domain favorable to the extraction. Gallium and aluminum extraction percentages, in each point, were evaluated via a statistical treatment of the data, with the use of variance analysis and mathematical models. In system I (SCO), percentages of extraction of 85.5% for gallium and 35.4% for aluminum were achieved; in system II (Kelex-100), the yields were 100% for gallium and 99.9% for aluminum. The reextraction study with sulfuric acid presented the same behavior for both systems, with efficiency depending upon the concentration of the acid, and allowing for a selective reextraction of gallium and aluminum.
