The invention relates to the description of extraction<br />

procedure in aqueous two-phase systems formed by a<br />

polymer (polyethylene glycol with molecular mass of 1550)<br />

and an inorganic salt. The use of aqueous polyethylene<br />

glycol–inorganic salt two-phase systems for the extraction of<br />

metal ions has a great potential due to their durability, nontoxicity<br />

and relative low cost.Such extraction systems can be<br />

used for selective or group separation of metal ions with high<br />

toxic potential (Hg(II), Pb(II), Bi(III), Cd(II) etc.), in<br />

presence of halide extractants. The procedure described in<br />

this invention included: (i) the methodology for preparation<br />

of aqueous two-phase systems preparation: type and<br />

characteristics (concentration, pH) of phase-forming salts,<br />

optimum concentration of polymer, mixing ratio of the<br />

phases and contact time; (ii) type and concentration of<br />

extractants; (iii) the experimental condition for the extraction<br />

of each metal ion; (iv) the yield, selectivity and<br />

implementing limits of the extraction procedure.<br />
