Abstract: The separation of nickel from manganese, magnesium and calcium by solvent extraction with new synergistic system was studied. The effects of organic phase ratio, equilibrium pH value and equilibrium time on extraction separation were investigated, and nickel extraction and stripping isotherms were plotted. The results showed that the organic phase composed of 1.25mol/L 4PC(L)+0.25mol/L P204(HA)was used after 5 levels of countercurrent extraction, the extraction rate of nickel reached 98.7%, and the extraction rate of other impurity metals were nearly below 5%. The loaded organic phase was subjected to a three-stage countercurrent stripping, the stripping rate of nickel reached 98.2%, and the content of nickel in the organic phase was less than 0.1g/L.

Key words: P204, 4PC, nickel, manganese, magnesium, calcium, synergistic solvent extraction
