Atmospheric sulfuric acid leaching thermodynamics from metallurgical zinc-bearing dust sludge

Abstract

In this paper, the influence of zinc and iron reaction in sulfuric acid leaching system, the influence of the parameters on the leaching of zinc sulfate and the reaction conditions for the subsequent leachate purification were systematically studied. It is suggested that the primary zinc and iron phases in metallurgical zinc-bearing dust sludge are ZnO, ZnS, ZnFe2O4, Fe, Fe2O3 and Fe3O4. In Zn-Fe-H2O system, as the concentrations of zinc and iron ions in solution increase, each component therein remains unchanged. The dominant area is subjected to change with solution pH. When the potential and pH are respectively controlled within a different scope, Zn, Fe separation proceeds at the different levels. Fe2O3 is difficult to be leached when sulfuric acid is used as an agent. ZnO is leached while the iron ion is inhibited by pH control. It is found by comparison of lg[C]-pH maps of Fe2O3 and Fe(OH)2, Fe(OH)3 that in the treatment of subsequent leachate, Fe 2+ can be oxidized into Fe 3+ by adding an proper amount of the oxidant to solution, and Fe 3+ forms Fe(OH)3 sediment by additive NaOH in solution. This hits the mark of iron removal. The research results have important theoretical significance for the leaching and purification process of alkali leaching-electrolysis process.

Nitrogen and Phosphorous Removal of Pilot-Scale Anaerobic-Anoxic-Aerobic Process Under Plateau Environmental Factors

“…The microbial densities corresponded poorly to the three working parameters, and differed significantly from those under normal conditions; the number of indicator microorganisms was basically consistent with the optimal values of our experimental parameters. In addition, the SV30 (Xu et al, 2013) and NLSS (Zhang et al, 2018) were both low in our experiment.…”

Analysis Technology of Environmental Monitoring Data Based on Internet of Things Environment and Improved Neural Network Algorithm

“…At present, the methods for predicting the quality of atmospheric environment mainly include numerical prediction and statistical prediction. However, the model precision of numerical prediction is lower than that of statistical prediction and the scope of application is limited (Chien et al, 2007;Song, 2018;Cooper and Ekström, 2005;Reifman et al, 2000;Zhang et al, 2018b;Zhao et al, 2018). Therefore, this paper adopts the statistical prediction with easy data acquisition and high prediction precision, including the back propagation (BP) neural network and multiple linear regression equation for the analysis of atmospheric environment prediction.…”
