A new process of extracting titanium from vanadium–titanium magnetite (VTM) in the Panxi area in Sichuan, China is introduced in this work. Various experiments, including reduction–magnetic separation, leaching and hydrolyzing experiments, are carried out. The results show that the optimum conditions for leaching experiments are an acid/slag ratio of 4:1, a leaching temperature of 60 °C, a leaching time of 80 min, and a liquid/solid ratio of 3.2:1. The leaching rate of titanium in Ti-bearing slag is 92.41%. The optimum conditions for hydrolyzing experiments are an H+ concentration of 0.75 g·L−1, hydrolyzing temperature of 100 °C, and hydrolyzing time of 180 min, and the hydrolyzing rate of titanium in acid leaching liquor is 96.80%. After the leaching and hydrolyzing experiments, the recovery rate of titanium from the Ti-bearing slag is 89.45%.

In this paper, a novel K2SO4/KCl composite roasting additive was used to extract vanadium from vanadium–titanium magnetite concentrate. Further, the mechanism of K2SO4/KCl for extracting vanadium was studied. The results indicate that the vanadium leaching efficiency reached 82.04%, an increase of 7.43% compared to that of single K2SO4 and 10.05% compared to single KCl under the following conditions: a total dosage of K2SO4/KCl of 7 wt % with a mass ratio of 6/4, a roasting temperature of 950 °C, a roasting time of 1 h, a leaching temperature of 95 °C, a sulfuric acid concentration of 10% (v/v: volume percentage), and a leaching time of 1.5 h with a liquid-to-solid ratio of 3 mL/g. Moreover, crystal chemistry analyses indicated that the essence of the vanadium extraction with roasting was the conversion of cubic crystal systemic vanadium-bearing magnetite (FeO(Fe,V)2O3) to trigonal crystal systemic hematite (α-Fe2O3), and as most Fe(V)–O bonds were broken with the reconstructed conversion, the dissociation of V(III) occurred. Furthermore, the main decomposition products of K2SO4/KCl were K2O, SO2, and Cl2. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and related SEM-EDS analyses indicated that there were mainly three aspects in the mechanism of K2SO4/KCl for extracting vanadium. Firstly, activated K2O could combine with vanadium to generate soluble KVO3 rather insoluble Ca(VO3)2; secondly, SO2 could react with CaO to form CaSO4 to prevent the generation of acid-consuming Ca(VO3)2, which was beneficial to the dissolution of vanadium-bearing sphene (Ca(Ti,V)SiO4O); thirdly, Cl2 could destroy the structure of hematite (Fe2O3) to reduce its wrapping extent to KVO3.

Abstract The XRF, XRD, polarizing microscopy and SEM-EDS were used to study the alteration mechanism of copper-bearing biotite and the leachable property of copper-bearing minerals in Mulyashy Copper Mine, Zambia. It was found that biotite can be divided into copper-bearing biotite and copper-free biotite. Some copper-bearing biotite existed in the form of monomer, and others aggregated with copper-bearing chlorite, malachite or copper-bearing limonite. The main reason for the occurrence of biotite aggregations was that copper-bearing biotite underwent two kinds of alteration mechanisms as follows: altering into copper-bearing chlorite and malachite, and altering into copper-bearing chlorite and copper-bearing limonite. The order of factors effecting the copper leaching rate of the ores in acid leaching experiments was temperature > sample size > H2SO4 concentration > leaching time > stirring speed. In addition, the copper leaching rate of copper-bearing minerals at different temperatures was in the following order: malachite, chrysocolla and pseudomalachite > copper-bearing chlorite > copper-bearing muscovite > copper-bearing biotite > copper-bearing limonite. The leachable property of biotite is closely related to its special structure.

In recent years, recovering zinc from zinc calcine with high iron has been a matter of discussion. In this paper, sulfuric acid leaching was carried out to assess the effect of several parameters on zinc and iron extraction in zinc calcine with high iron in which the grade of zinc and iron is 53.90% and 19.38%, respectively. Parameters, such as stirring speed, sulfuric acid concentration, liquid to solid ratio and leaching time, were investigated. The results show that leaching time has done nothing to the leaching rate, but has great influence on leaching efficiency. Liquid to solid ratio and sulfuric acid concentration have significant influence on leaching results, and stirring rate has not obvious influence on leaching results. Under the condition of 120g/L sulfuric acid, 6:1 liquid to solid ratio, 55°C leaching temperature and 120min leaching time, the recovery of zinc and iron is 82.24% and 9.64%, respectively. It is obvious that ZnO in zinc calcine is easy to dissolve in acidity solution, which shown in two aspects: high leaching rate and high leaching speed. ZnO can be dissolved entirely in sufficient sulfuric acid in 10min.

Abstract:A new technology of direct acid leaching vanadium without grinding and roasting was put forward, and the effects of leaching factors including dosage of sulfuric acid, type and dosage of assistant leaching agent, leaching time and temperature, liquid-solid ratio on the vanadium leaching rate were systematically investigated. The results show that vanadium leaching rate could be up to 92.58% under the optimal conditions of sulfuric acid dosage of 30%, MnO2 as assistant leaching agent and its dosage of 1.5%, leaching time of 6h, leaching temperature of 90°C, liquid-solid ratio of 1:1, and the leaching performance is perfect. Due to leaving out the high costing grinding system and the complex roasting system, the new technology has advantages in shortening the process, decreasing the cost, avoiding pollution generated by roasting comparing with the traditional technologies, and it can meet the requirement of modern metallurgy very well.

In this paper, sulfuric acid leaching was carried out to assess the effect of several parameters on metal extraction in a low grade complex gossan ore in which the grade of zinc and iron is 13% and 40.2%, respectively. Parameters, such as sulfuric acid concentration, liquid to solid ratio and leaching temperature, were studied. The results show that the zinc leaching rate is almost 80%, while the iron leaching rate is about 45% used strong acid with 200g/L. It can be seen from the results that sulfuric acid leaching could not effectively recover zinc from gossan ores studied in this paper because of iron dissolving greatly.

Rare Earth (RE) phosphors waste contains valuable rare Earth elements (REEs), such as cerium, terbium, yttrium, and europium. In industry, the process of NaOH roasting followed by acid leaching is usually used to extract the REEs from the waste in China. Using this process, the leaching efficiencies of cerium and terbium are clearly lower than those of other REEs, which results in uneven extraction of REEs in the waste and low total REE leaching efficiency. The key reason is that the trivalent cerium and terbium in the waste are oxidized into RE oxides during NaOH roasting, which are difficult to dissolve in acid solution. To solve this problem, an optimized process of controlling the oxygen concentration during NaOH roasting is proposed in this paper. The influences of the oxygen concentration, roasting temperature, roasting time, mass ratio of waste phosphor to NaOH, HCl solution concentration, acid leaching temperature, acid leaching time, and liquid–solid ratio on the REE leaching efficiency were investigated. Under the optimum conditions, the leaching efficiencies of cerium and terbium increased dramatically and the total REE leaching efficiency is 99.11%.
