Abstract: The rate of extraction of Er(Ⅲ) from aqueous acetate solutions at 0.2 mol/Lionic strength by HBTMPTPin n heptane was studied by using a constant interfacial area cell with laminar flow at (30± 0.5) ℃. The interfacial activity of HBTMPTPwas investigated at n heptane/ 0.2 mol/L(H, Na)Ac (pH= 5.00 ) interface. The rate of Er(Ⅲ) extraction was measured aTdifferent chemical compositions by varying hydrogen ion, HBTMPTP, Cyanex 302 and chlorine ion concentrations. The effect of stirring speed, temperature and special interfacial area on the rate of extraction was also studied. The results showed that, under the conditions of the experiments, the overall rate is diffusion controlled. It was found that the impurities of Cyanex 302 have the effect of synergistic extraction.
