Discussed is a process for recovering metals and metal-containing products, such as a nickel sulfate product, from aqueous feed solutions comprising two or more dissolved metals. A selected metal is isolated and in a purified form in an aqueous raffinate phase from solvent extraction of nonselected metals using an organic phase containing a salt of an organic acid and the selected metal. Aqueous feed solution may result from leaching operations, including leaching of nickel-containing catalyst, such as catalyst used in hydrogenation of vegetable oils.
