This work describes a modified procedure, which shows better L-L extraction percentages with a decreasing of the concentration of TFA, the contacting time and the volumetric O/A ratio respect to the previously reported tests. Thus, the extraction was implemented with a concentration of TFA in [bmim] [Tf2N] equal to 60 mol m(-3), a contacting time of 5 min and an O/A ratio equal to 1:7. The stripping of the metal complex from the organic phase was achieved in semi-continuous mode with scCO(2). This configuration allowed obtaining a stripping percentage higher than the obtained with a previously tested procedure in batch mode with a consumption of CO2 4.3 times lower than the observed one in previous work.Acceso AbiertoMetal extractionStripping 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imideCopperbeta-DiketoneSupercritical carbon dioxidehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.supflu.2017.05.003
