This paper describes an optimization study on the leaching of lead from zinc leach residue using acidic calcium chloride aqueous solution. Six main process conditions, i.e., the solution pH value, stirring rate, concentration of CaC12 aqueous solution, liquid-to-solid (L/S) ratio, leaching temperature, and leaching time, were inves- tigated. The microstructure and components of the residue and tailing were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). On the basis of experimental results, the optimum reaction conditions were determined to be a solution pH value of 1, a stirring rate of 500 r·min-1, a CaC12 aqueous solution concentration of 400 g·L-1, a liquid-to-solid mass ratio of 7:1, a leaching tempera- ture of 80℃, and a leaching time of 45 min. The leaching rate of lead under these conditions reached 93.79%, with an iron dissolution rate of 19.28%. Silica did not take part in the chemical reaction during the leaching process and was accumulated in the residue.展开更多

Conditions for the transfer function that improve smoothness of original data sequence and decrease the revert error are given. The grey dynamic model is first combined with the transfer function to predict the leaching rate in heap leaching process. The results show that high prediction accuracy can be expected by using the proposed method. This provides a new approach to realize prediction and control of the future behavior of leaching kinetics.展开更多

The resu...The water leaching process of vanadium, sodium, and silicon from molten vanadium-titanium-bearing(V-Ti-bearing) slag obtained from low-grade vanadium-bearing titanomagnetite was investigated systematically. The results show that calcium titanate, sodium aluminosilicate, sodium oxide, silicon dioxide and sodium vanadate are the major components of the molten V-Ti-bearing slag. The experimental results indicate that the liquid-solid(L/S) mass ratio significantly affects the leaching process because of the respective solubilities and diffusion rates of the components. A total of 83.8% of vanadium, 72.8% of sodium, and 16.1% of silicon can be leached out via a triple counter-current leaching process under the optimal conditions of a particle size below 0.074 mm, a temperature of 90°C, a leaching time of 20 min, an L/S mass ratio of 4:1, and a stirring speed of 300 r/min. The kinetics of vanadium leaching is well described by an internal diffusion-controlled model and the apparent activation energy is 11.1 kJ/mol. The leaching mechanism of vanadium was also analyzed.展开更多

The optimal treatment temperature was confirmed as 1300 ℃ for the incorporation of SrO in rutile Ti O2. Perovskite type Sr TiO3 was prepared as the resultant product. The limited containment capacity of SrO in rutile was speculated to be 56.5wt%. As the SrO content increases, the as-synthesized sample exhibits more porosity because Sr TiO3 phase demonstrates higher density than rutile and SrO. The 28 day normalized leaching rate(LRi) of Sr and Ti will decrease congruously as the SrO incorporation increases. The LRSr value is lower than 0.1g·m^-2·d^-1, which is about 3 orders of magnitude higher than the LR(Ti) value.展开更多
