A green and sensitive method to determine phenols in water and wastewater sampl...
Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Silva, Luis Henrique Mendes da; Silva, Maria do Carmo Hespanhol da; Minim, Luis AntonioA greener and more sensitive spectrophotometric procedure has been developed for the determination of phenol and o-cresol that exploits an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) using a liquid–liquid extraction technique. An ATPS is formed mostly by water and does not require organic solvent. Other ATPS components used in this study were the polymer, polyethylene oxide, and some salts (i.e., Li2SO4, Na2SO4 or K2HPO4 +...
Copper recovery from ore by liquid–liquid extraction using aqueous two-phase sy...
Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Santos, Igor José Boggione; Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Silva, Luis Henrique Mendes da; Silva, Maria C. Hespanhol daWe investigated the extraction behavior of Cu(II) in the aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) formed by (L35 + MgSO4 + H2O) or (L35 + (NH4)2SO4 + H2O) in the presence of the extracting agent 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN). At pH = 3 and a PAN concentration of 0.285 mmol kg−1, both ATPS lead to the effective separation of Cu(II) from other metallic ions (Zn(II), Co(II), Ni(II) and Fe(III)). High separation factors...
Liquid–liquid equilibrium of aqueous two-phase systems composed of poly(ethylen...
Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Patrício, Pamela da Rocha; Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Carvalho, Raquel Moreira Maduro de; Silva, Maria C. Hespanhol daPhase diagrams of aqueous two-phase systems composed of PEO1500 + salt (di-potassium phosphate + potassium hydroxide or ammonium sulfate or zinc sulfate) + water were determined at (283.15, 298.15, and 313.15) K. All systems produce a large two-phase region; however the influence of temperature on the binodal position seems to be very small. By analyzing the effects of ammonium sulfate or zinc sulfate, it was o...
Aqueous two-phase systems: An efficient, environmentally safe and economically ...
Mageste, Aparecida Barbosa; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Ferreira, Guilherme Max Dias; Silva, Maria do Carmo Hespanhol daPartition of the natural dye carmine has been studied in aqueous two-phase systems prepared by mixing aqueous solutions of polymer or copolymer with aqueous salt solutions (Na2SO4 and Li2SO4). The carmine dye partition coefficient was investigated as a function of system pH, polymer molar mass, hydrophobicity, system tie-line length and nature of the electrolyte. It has been observed that the carmine partition ...
Aqueous two-phase systems: a new approach for the determination of p-aminophenol
Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Patrício, Pamela da Rocha; Silva, Luis Henrique Mendes da; Silva, Maria do Carmo Hespanhol daA new method has been developed for the spectrophotometric determination of p-aminophenol (PAP) in water, paracetamol formulations and human urine samples with a recovery rate between 94.9 and 101%. This method exploits an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) liquid–liquid extraction technique with the reaction of PAP, sodium nitroprusside and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in pH 12.0, which produces the [Fe2(CN)10]^10...
Application of hydrophobic extractant in aqueous two-phase systems for selectiv...
Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Silva, Luis Henrique Mendes da; Silva, Maria C. Hespanhol daThis work developed a new and efficient method of extracting and separating Co(II), Ni(II) and Cd(II) in aqueous two-phase systems (ATPS) composed of triblock copolymer (L64) + Na2C4H4O6 + water and L64 + Li2SO4 + water using the hydrophobic extractant 1-nitroso-2-naphtol, which complexes the metal ions and partitions in the triblock copolymer micelles in the ATPS top phase. Metal extraction from the salt-rich ...
Phase diagram and thermodynamic modeling of PEO + organic salts + H2O and PPO +...
Patrício, Pamela da Rocha; Mageste, Aparecida Barbosa; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Carvalho, Raquel Moreira Maduro de; Silva, Luis Henrique Mendes daThe phase diagrams of PEO1500 + sodium tartrate + water, PPO400 + sodium tartrate + water, PEO1500 + sodium succinate + water, PPO400 + sodium succinate + water, PEO1500 + sodium citrate + water, PPO400 + sodium citrate + water and PPO400 + sodium acetate + water aqueous two-phase systems were determined at (283.15, 298.15, and 313.15) K. Both equilibrium phases composition were analyzed by conductimetry and re...
Use of aqueous two-phase PEG-salt systems for the removal of anionic surfactant...
Murari, Gabriella Frade; Penido, Jussara Alves; Silva, Heriveltom Morais da; Baeta, Bruno Eduardo Lobo; Aquino, Sergio Francisco deLinear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) are synthetic anionic surfactants that are extensively used in many industries. As a result, large volumes of effluents containing high levels of these compounds are discharged into water bodies, causing risks to aquatic flora and fauna. Then, there is a need for environmentally safe and economically viable technologies for the removal of LAS from aqueous matrices. The prese...
Green selective recovery of lanthanum from Ni-MH battery leachate using aqueous...
Oliveira, Wbiratan Cesar Macedo de; Rodrigues, Guilherme Dias; Mageste, Aparecida Barbosa; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues deIn view of the importance of resource recycling and the use of environmentally safe systems to extract the metals contained in wastes, the present study concerns the extraction/separation of lanthanum from spent Ni–MH batteries. Investigation was made of the extraction behavior of lanthanum using aqueous twophase systems (ATPSs), and a new environmentally safe hydrometallurgical method was developed for the sel...
A method for dye extraction using an aqueous two-phase system : effect of co-oc...
Borges, Gabriella Alexandre; Silva, Luciana Pereira; Penido, Jussara Alves; Lemos, Leandro Rodrigues de; Mageste, Aparecida BarbosaThis paper reports a green and efficient procedure for extraction of the dyes Malachite Green (MG), Methylene Blue (MB), and Reactive Red 195 (RR) using an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS). An ATPS consists mainly of water, together with polymer and salt, and does not employ any organic solvent. The extraction efficiency was evaluated by means of the partition coefficients (K) and residual percentages (% R) of t...
