Abstract
The distribution equilibria of single and binary Lβphenylalanine and Lβaspartic acid between water and a kerosene solution of di(2βethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) were studied. It was shown that the distribution ratios of phenylalanine generally increased with increasing aqueous pH (2β5) in the D2EHPA concentration range 0.1β0.5 mol dm^β3^, but those of aspartic acid decreased with increasing solution pH. Different reaction stoichiometries were proposed for the extraction of phenylalanine and aspartic acid under the conditions studied. The extraction equilibrium constants were obtained. Competitive extraction in binary systems was more apparent in the pH range where the cationic form of amino acids was not predominant. The present results indicated that selective separation of phenylalanine to aspartic acid was possible with this cationic extractant when they were extracted at higher pH and stripped using higher acidity of HCl solution.

## Abstract BACKGROUND: Diβ(2βethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA, H~2~A~2~) has been used extensively in hydrometallurgy for the extraction of rare earths, but it has some limitations. Synergistic extraction has attracted much attention because of its enhanced extractabilities and selectivities. In
## Abstract DPβ8R and ACORGA M5640 extractants diluted in Exxsol D100 were used to coβextract cobalt and nickel from aqueous acidic sulfate media. The influences of equilibration time, temperature, equilibrium pH and reagent concentrations on the extraction of both metals have been studied. It was
