    • DFT modelling of tantalum pentafluoride extraction with phosphorus-based extractants – a molecular dynamics study 

      Ungerer, M.J.; Van Sittert, C.G.C.E.; Van der Westhuizen, D.J.; Krieg, H.M. (Elsevier, 2019)
      Solvent extraction (SX) is a powerful method for both the separation and extraction of metals, resulting in high purity metals. The transition metals tantalum (Ta) and niobium (Nb) are of considerable significance, for ...

    • Separation of hafnium from zirconium using membrane based solvent extraction 

      Malan, Daniël (North-West University (South Africa)., 2022)
      The need for purified Zr and Hf has become imperative with the development of the nuclear industry. Solvent extraction (SX) processes, such as the TBP and MIBK processes have been successfully applied for the industrial ...

    • The time dependent solvent extraction of Ta and Nb 

      Van der Westhuizen, Derik J.; De Beer, Leon; Ungerer, Marietjie J.; Krieg, Henning M. (Trans Tech Publications, 2014)
      The suitability of Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) for the selective extraction of chemically similar tantalum (Ta) and niobium (Nb) mixtures was investigated by determining the influence of the acid concentration, extractant ...
