Abstract:
Extraction separation vanadium and molybdenum from stone coal acidic leach solution using P

4was studied. Some parameters of extraction and stripping, such as pH of solution, the species of strippingagent, the concentration of stripping agent and the volume ratio of organic phase to aqueous phase wereoptimized by a series o f tests. The results showed that after deacidizing the stone coal acidic leach solutionwith Na
