The chemical element iodine is a bluish-black, crystalline solid with sub-metallic luster (Figures 3–4 ). It belongs to a class of elements known as the halogens found in Group VIIA on the Periodic Table. At ordinary room temperatures iodine is a blue-violet gas that has an irritating odor. As a solid, iodine readily goes from its solid form ...

In 1976, Amoco discovered it was economically feasible to extract iodine from brine water in its deep Oklahoma wells. By 2004, iodine was bringing $14 a kilogram on the open market. Rising demand and a decline in Japanese production has caused iodine to rise to $45 a kilogram by 2013. At one point last year, iodine spiked at $92 a …

2.2. Extraction with organic solvent. Iodine was extracted from digested samples for three times with 12 ml CHCl 3 and then back-extracted into aqueous solution by addition of 20 ml 0.1 M NaHSO 3.This compound reduces all iodine species to iodide, retaining it in the aqueous phase and avoiding its evaporation [30].Then the solution was …

The iodine extraction process works by adjusting the brine's environment until the iodine molecules are ready to be separated from its naturally occurring structures. Once this is achieved, iodine is removed and then crystallized. Afterwards, a second process may then be employed to prepare the iodine for marketing, in which the iodine ...

Iodine in natural salt waters such as iodine-rich underground brine generally exists as iodide ions, and to extract iodide ions, it is necessary to oxidize them to nonpolar iodine molecules. In this study, we report that iodide ions in natural brine containing high concentrations of chloride ions can be quantitatively extracted without oxidation by …

Sakharov says that Iodine Star has adapted its technology to more efficiently extract from saltwater waste disposal sites iodine, lithium and other minerals that are …
