The morphologies of selenium-tellurium-rich materials are mainly spheroid and columnar bodies and the range of particle size of selenium-tellurium-rich materials is between 17.77μm and 56.58μm, which contain 41.73%selenium and 40.96%tellurium. The ranges of experimental elements are 126-315 g/L of sodium sulfite concentration, 100-400 r/min of agitation speed, 23-95 ℃ of reaction temperature, 7:1-14:1 of liquid-solid ratio and 17.77-56.58μm of average particle size. The results show that the leaching rate increases with increasing the sodium sulfite concentration, agitation speed, reaction temperature or liquid-solid ratio and the leaching rate decreases with increasing the particle size. The reaction temperature has the significant effects on the selenium leaching rate which increases from 21%to 67%with increasing temperature from 23 ℃ to 95 ℃. The experimental data agree quite well with the Avrami model for leaching, with model parameter of 0.235 and apparent activation energy of 20.847 kJ/mol.展开更多
