It is found that sodium dodecylsulfonate is the effective surfactant in improving the zinc recoveryfrom sphalerite in the aqueous FeCl_3-HCl-tetrachloroethylene system.Through the measurements of surface tension and viscosity of thesphalerite Slurry modified with different surfactants, it isconcluded that sodium dodecyl sulfonate in the concentration rang Of0.05 to 0.2 g·L^-1 can improve the viscosity of sphalerite slurry inthe water, decrease the surface tension of Leaching solution, preventthe aggregation of ore particles, and give very high zinc extraction.展开更多

Various parameters, such as the gold (I) concentration in aqueous phase, the modifier, emulsification at the interface of two phases, and phase ratio used in the extraction of gold (I) were studied. The results demonstrate that almost all gold (I) in the aqueous phase was practically extracted into the organic phase. The water content in the organic phase decreased significantly with increase of gold (I) concentration using long chain alcohol as modifier, in contrast with the system with tributyl phosphate (TBP) as modifier. Emulsification at the interface of two phases decreases with an increase of modifier concentration in the organic phase or with the addition of a small amount of lysozyme into the aqueous phase. The method with 198Au tracer can be directly used to determine the Au(I) concentration both in aqueous and organic phases, which is especially suitable for the low concentration of Au(I).展开更多

Compared with the traditional industrial additives, gelatine and gum arabic, [BMIM]HSO4 has more excellent chemical and thermal stabilities. The inhibition effects of gelatine and gum arabic on the zinc electrocrystallization are observed to markedly weaken due to their part degradation after 12 h longtime successive electrolysis and high temperature （90 ℃） treatments. In contrast, the activity of [BMIM]HSO4 is practically unaffected after 24 h longtime successive electrolysis and high temperature treatments. These results are corroborated with the corresponding morphological analysis of the cathodic deposits.展开更多
