Recovery of iron(III), HNO 3 , and HF from stainless steel rinse waters by liquid–liquid extraction using Cyanex‐923 extractant was studied. The influence of equilibration time, temperature, V aq /V org phase ratios, and extractant concentrations on the extraction of iron(III) was investigated. Furthermore, the separate extraction of HNO 3 and HF by Cyanex‐923 was also studied. Conditions for the coextraction of iron(III), HNO 3 , and HF were established as: 30 min of contact, 20°C, V aq /V org phase ratio of 1 and using undiluted Cyanex‐923 (water presaturated) as extractant. Under the appropriate experimental conditions, water is effective for the selective stripping of the three extracted solutes. © 2004 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 50: 1150–1155, 2004
