Abstract: A process for recovering nitric acid or salts thereof, comprising: contacting, in the presence of water, an water-immiscible ionic liquid of the formula [A+][X?], wherein [A+] represents a phosphonium or ammonium cation and [X?] represents a counter anion which is NO3?, an halide anion displaceable by NO3?, or both, with a fluid which contains HNO3 and at least one more mineral acid, or precursors of said acids, and partition, under mixing, said acids between aqueous and organic phases and form nitrate-loaded ionic liquid of the formula [A+][NO3?]z>0.25 where Z indicates a molar amount of nitrate held in the ionic liquid beyond the positions occupied by the nitrate counter ions; separating the so-formed mixture into an organic phase comprising a nitrate-loaded ionic liquid of the formula [A+][NO3?]z>0.
