Abstract  

The selective separation ability of the cyclic crowns, known for liquid-liquid extraction, e.g. alkali metals, is found to be effective for emulsion membrane extraction. 18-C-6, DB-18-C-6, DC-18-C-6 crowns were used as carriers. The co-transport of the ionic pair SrL2+. 2A through the membrane has been studied. Calcium was considered as a main competing ion. Even in the case of 20-fold preconcentration, there have been found conditions under which the pertraction process can reach Sr/Ca separation factors of about 500 and the yield of strontium is high (95–98%). The presence of calcium up to 1000-fold excess has no influence on the yield of strontium (1.10–5M). The calcium content in the isolated emulsion was caused by second emulsification of the outer solution. The influence of potassium on strontium pertraction has been studied and some transport data of Cs and Y have been obtained.
