Non-dispersive extraction of Zn(II) and Cu(II) from single and binary solutions across a flat-sheet membrane to an organic solution containing di(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (D2EHPA) was studied. Hydrophilic microporous and cation exchange membranes were used. Experiments were performed as a function of the pH (2-6), metal concentration (0.31-3.13 mol/m(3)), and D2EHPA concentration (50-500 mol/m(3)). It was shown that the presence of one metal retarded the transport of the other. Compared to the hydrophilic microporous membrane, the cation exchange membrane gave a low extraction rate of both metals in either single or binary systems, but gave a higher selectivity of Zn(II) over Cu(II) in binary systems at high D2EHPA concentrations.
