Description:
In this work a new cloud point extraction (CPE) methodology was developed for the separation and preconcentration of cadmium and nickel. The analyte in the initial aqueous solution was complexed with dithizone and Triton X-114 was added as surfactant. After phase separation, based on the cloud point of the mixture, and dilution of the surfactant-rich phase with tetrahydrofuran (THF), the enriched analytes were determined by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. After optimization of the complexation and extraction conditions and preconcentration of only 10ml of sample in the presence of 0.05% Triton X-114, the enhancement factors of 52 and 39 and the detection limits of 0.31@mgl^-^1 and 1.2@mgl^-^1 were obtained for cadmium and nickel respectively. The proposed method was applied satisfactorily to the determination of cadmium and nickel in water samples.
