The study was conducted in single and ternary model solutions. The impact of acid concentration and the type of solvent (toluene, chloroform, methylene chloride, 2-ethylhexanol) on separation efficiency was discussed. It has been shown that increasing the HCl concentration in the aqueous phase does not favor extraction. In contrast, solvents with high donor numbers (methylene chloride, 2-ethylhexanol) increase both the extraction percentage of Pd and Au as well as the separation coefficients of Pd in relation to Au and Pt. The palladium(II) and gold(III) (which form 4-coordinated planar [MCl4]2\u2212 complexes) are extracted most efficiently, Pd(II) (87\u201393%) and Au(III) (56\u201362%). The stripping of Au(III), Pd(II), and Pt(IV) ions from the EDAB-acac-methylene chloride phase was also investigated using 0.5 M ammonia aq., mineral acid (5 M HCl, 5 M HNO3), 0.1 M thiourea in HCl and 0.5 M ammonium thiocyanate. A 3-step stripping process was proposed for the recovery of Pd(II), Au(III), and Pt(IV) from the Pd-Au-Pt mixture in the EDAB-acac-methylene chloride system. In the first stage, the aqueous phase is treated with 5 M HNO3 (Pt separation), followed by the application of 0.5 M ammonia (Pd separation) and, finally, 0.1 M thiourea in HCl (Au separation). The solvent extraction with EDAB-acac in acidic medium (HCl) can be used for separation of Pd(II) and Au(III) ions from e-waste leach solutions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ma14164436","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,8,8]],"date-time":"2021-08-08T21:49:41Z","timestamp":1628459381000},"page":"4436","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":12,"title":["Separation and Recovery of Gold(III), Palladium(II) and Platinum(IV) by Solvent Extraction Using a New \u03b2-Diketone Derivative from Acidic Solutions"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5522-666X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Elzbieta","family":"Radzyminska-Lenarcik","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, UTP University of Science and Technology, Seminaryjna 3, 85-326 Bydgoszcz, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5620-828X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ilona","family":"Pyszka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Chemical Technology and Engineering, UTP University of Science and Technology, Seminaryjna 3, 85-326 Bydgoszcz, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Artur","family":"Kosciuszko","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, UTP University of Science and Technology, Al.
