Hydrometallurgical processes commonly utilize different extractants in discrete stages to sequentially recover and separate individual metals, with Alamines and phenolic oximes being among the most common extractants. Transfer of extractants from the intended to an adjacent stage is a common occurrence hence it is important to study and understand the effects of contamination of solvent extraction circuits by transferred extractants. Our lab has studied various implications of an Alamine 336 contamination in a phenolic oxime CuSX circuit. Organic conductivity was examined as an indicator for Alamine 336 contamination. Only a moderate correlation was identified indicating organic conductivity is an unreliable surrogate indicator of Alamine 336 contamination. The Transfer of chloride from PLS to electrolyte via chemical loading of Alamine 336 was investigated. By measuring the chloride and sulfate loading of the organic after respective contacts, it appears Alamine 336 does transfer chloride from PLS to electrolyte, if chloride is present. Removal of Alamaine 336 via standard clay treatment was measured, indicating clay removal is effective. These findings can be a guide hydrometallurgical operation experiencing similar extractant transfer between circuits.
