In this study, we investigated the recovery of zinc from zinc oxide dust using choline chloride-ureaethylene glycol(ChCl-urea-EG) DESs. The zinc extraction efficiency can be up to 85.2% when the slurry concentration is 50 g/L, leaching temperature is 80 °C and stirring speed is 600 r/min. The leaching process is controlled by the diffusion and the corresponding activation energy is 32.1 k J/mol. The resultant solution was directly used for the electrodeposition of zinc. The pure zinc deposit is obtained with a current efficiency of 82.6%. Furthermore, the ChCl-urea-EG DESs can be recycled. This approach is shown to be promising for the recycling of zinc from the zinc-containing dust.展开更多

The synthesized samples were characterized by the transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and N2 adsorption-desorption techniques. The results indicated that the mesoporous silica synthesized by using [bmim][BF4] and CTAB as mixed templates showed better mesostructural order and smaller pore size, compared with mesoporous silica materials synthesized by using single [bmim][BF4] as template under the same conditions. This indicates that the presence of surfactant can affect the microstructures of silica prepared by＇the present synthesis method.展开更多
