Abstract: Method of separation of a radiometal ion from a target metal ion, comprising a first liquid-liquid extraction step in which an organic phase comprising an extractant and an interfacial tension modifier is mixed with an aqueous phase comprising the radiometal ion and the target metal ion in order that the radiometal ion is at least partially transferred to the organic phase, followed by a first phase separation step, wherein the phase separation is carried out in flow comprising the use of a microfiltration membrane to separate the phases based on the interfacial tension between the phases such that a permeate phase passes through the membrane and a retentate phase does not.

Abstract: Compositions and methods are provided that provide recovery of metals such as copper, nickel, cobalt, indium, and other metals are recovered from mine tailings, in situ ore bodies, or postconsumer waste. An amine-containing lixiviant is utilized to generate an aqueous solution of the desired metal from insoluble salts present in the source material. Metals can be recovered and further purified by various processes, including extraction into an immiscible organic solvent, electrowinning, crystallization, and chemical reduction. Spent lixiviant can be regenerated and recycled back into the metal recovery process.

Abstract: A method for recycling copper indium gallium selenium materials comprises the steps of sulphating roasting, acid dissolution, extraction and electrolysis of metal copper, production of a gallium hydroxide deposition, replacement of indium, and the like. In the method, deselenization is carried by using sulphating roasting, and residues after roasting are oxidizing slags capable of being directly subjected to acid dissolution, thereby reducing acid gas pollution; in addition, copper is extracted by using a copper extractant, the separation effect is good and costs are low, the extracted copper can be directly electrolyzed, so as to obtain high-purity metal copper; and in another aspect, in the method, alkali separation of gallium is carried out, separation between indium and gallium can be implemented by merely adjusting the pH of a solution, thereby resolving the problem of co-extraction in the extraction of indium and gallium and the separation between indium and gallium, the separation effect is good, the purities of obtained indium and gallium products are high.

Abstract: To concentrate metals such as gallium from ore which is extracted from mines or used electronic components while suppressing the quantity of waste liquid generated is difficult. A first solid metal compound which contains a metal selected from a group consisting of gallium, indium, germanium, tellurium, and cesium at a first metal content in a mixture of the first solid metal compound is reduced to form a gaseous metal compound, the gaseous metal compound is oxidized to form a second solid metal compound, and the second solid metal compound is collected at a second metal content which is higher than the first metal content.
