In this study, sulfuric acid leaching and gravity shaking-table separation by shaking a table are used to extract lead and zinc from a Pb-Zn oxidizing roasting cinder. The oxidizing roasting cinder—containing 16.9% Pb, 30.5% Zn, 10.3% Fe and 25.1% S—was obtained from a Pb-Zn sulfide ore in the Hanyuan area of China by a flotation-rotary kiln oxidizing roasting process. Anglesite and lead oxide were the main Pb-bearing minerals, while zinc sulfate, zinc oxide and zinc ferrite were the main Zn-bearing minerals. The results show that a part of lead contained in lead oxide is transformed to anglesite, and a 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O-dominated new lead mineral phase after acid leaching. A zinc leaching efficiency of 96.7% was obtained under the leaching conditions used: a leaching temperature of 55 °C; a leaching time of 90 min; a sulfuric acid dosage of 20%; a sulfurous acid dosage of 4%; a cinder particle size of <0.3 mm; and a solid-liquid ratio of R = 1:4. After the gravity shaking-table separation, a lead concentrate with 50.2% Pb, 2.33% Zn and lead recovery of 86.0% was produced. The main chemical compounds in leaching residue are anglesite, 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O, SiO2 and ZnFe2O4, while the main chemical compounds in lead concentrate are anglesite, 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O and SiO2.

In this work, oxidizing roasting was combined with leaching to separate copper, lead, and zinc from a concentrate obtained by bulk flotation of a low-grade ore sourced from the Jiama mining area of Tibet. The flotation concentrate contained 7.79% Cu, 22.00% Pb, 4.81% Zn, 8.24% S, and 12.15% CaO; copper sulfide accounted for 76.97% of the copper, lead sulfide for 25.55% of the lead, and zinc sulfide for 67.66% of the zinc. After oxidizing roasting of the flotation concentrate, the S content in the roasting slag decreased to 0.22%, indicating that most sulfide in the concentrate was transformed to oxide, which was beneficial to leaching. The calcine was subjected to sulfuric acid leaching for separation of copper, lead, and zinc; i.e., copper and zinc were leached, and lead was retained in the residue. The optimum parameters of the leaching process were: a leaching temperature of 55 °C; sulfuric acid added at 828 kg/t calcine; a liquid:solid ratio of 3:1; and a leaching time of 1.5 h. Under these conditions, the extents of leaching of copper and zinc were 87.43% and 64.38%, respectively. Copper and zinc in the leaching solution could be further separated by electrowinning. The effects of leaching parameters on the extents of leaching of copper and zinc were further revealed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy analysis.

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.

The run-of-mine of complex lead-zinc ores in Yunnan contains 3.26% lead and 2.54% zinc. When traditional selective flotation flowsheet was adopted, 3.77% yield and 61.92% grade of lead concentrate as well as 5.65% yield and 38.67% grade of zinc concentrate were achieved. Simultaneously, 72.39% lead recovery and 3.83% zinc grade in lead concentrate as well as 80.64% zinc recovery and 6.39% lead grade in zinc concentrate were obtained. Lead concentrate and zinc concentrate obtained from selective flotation contain each other severely, resulting in low recovery of lead and zinc and severe loss of metal, which influences subsequent smelting flowsheet. In addition, due to requirement of large amount of depressant and activator while separating lead and zinc in the process of mineral processing, the cost is very high and the compositions of tail water which can not be recycled by the plant are very complicated. For the combined flowsheet of beneficiation and metallurgy, bulk flotation flowsheet was adopted. Therefore, 11.22% yield of combined lead and zinc concentrate with 25.55% lead grade, 18.33% zinc grade and 86.36% lead recovery were obtained. Gravity separation technology was utilized to separate combined concentrate of lead and zinc. After selecting out part of high quality lead concentrate, the remaining combined concentrate of lead and zinc was treated by acid leaching under high pressure. The final leaching efficiency of zinc was able to reach 97%. The new combined flowsheet has lots of advantages such as shorter flowsheet of beneficiation, simpler reagents, more direct reuse of backwater and higher recovery of metals.

The objectives of this work are to study the influence of fluoride additives on aluminum recycling from the boiler slag. The effect of adding different amounts of fluoride, such as NaF, NH4F, KF and CaF2, was investigated. An elemental analysis of aqueous solutions leached by sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid was determined by EDTA-Na2-ZnCl2 titration method. The components and microstructures of the samples were examined by means of XRF, XRD and SEM. Acid strength, leaching time, solid/liquid ratios and different additives were conducted in this experiment. The fluoride additives have a significant effect on the leachability of alumina in the boiler slag. NH4F is the best choice economically because of low dosage and high efficiency.

In this paper, nickel-containing residue, a typical solid waste produced in the battery production process, was used to study the cavitation characteristics of ultrasonic waves in a liquid–solid reaction. The ultrasonically-enhanced leaching technology for multicomponent and complex nickel-containing residue was studied through systematic ultrasonic-conventional comparative experiments. An ultrasonic leaching kinetics model was established which provided reliable technological guidance and basic theory for the comprehensive utilization of nickel-containing residue. In the study, it was found that ultrasonically-enhanced leaching for 40 min obtained the same result as conventional leaching for 80 min, and the Ni extraction degree reached more than 95%. According to the kinetic fitting of the leaching process, it was found that the sulfuric acid leaching process belonged to the diffusion-controlled model of solid product layers under conventional and ultrasonic conditions, and the activation energy of the reaction was Ea1 = 17.74 kJ/mol and Ea2 = 5.04 kJ/mol, respectively.

lmenite (FeO.TiO2) ore from Bangka island-Indonesia is a potential raw material for synthesizing titanium dioxide (TiO2), which can be used further as pigmen and photocatalyst. The fabrication of TiO2 particles from ilmenite can be carried out through the solvent extraction using sulfuric acid route. Therefore, the solubility of the ilmenite ore in sulfuric acid environment is one of the key factors to obtain the desired TiO2 particles. The current research is aimed at comparing the solubility of pristine Bangka ilmenite ore with that of precedingly decomposed by sodium hidroxide (NaOH) in pressurized and atmospheric reflux reactors. The dissolution of both precursors was carried out in those reactors under various temperatures of 75, 100, 125, 150 and 175°C. The results showed that the optimum dilution was achieved at 150°C. The obtained recovery of ilmenite was 88.8 % for the pressurized reactor and 75.5% for the atmospheric reflux reactor. The solubility of titanium (Ti) element increased steadily to reach a recovery of 68% at 150°C and decreased significantly afterwards. It was also found that the increase of iron (Fe) element solubility was proportional to the increase of processing temperatures.
