This chapter overviews various hydrometallurgical and bio-hydrometallurgical leaching processes for the extraction of metals from these wastes.
Leaching is the liberation of metals from ores by chemical dissolution, and it forms the basis of most hydrometallurgical extraction processes. The goal is to get the maximum amount of metal dissolved. It is an established …
This section describes the following leaching processes: AL, HPAL, DNi, NPAL, the Caron process (carbonic acid leaching), phosphoric acid leaching, and hydrochloric acid leaching. The effects of ore grade on embodied energy and GHG emissions were estimated by Norgate et.al. [ 26 ] for the various nickel laterite …
Applying red mud as construction materials like cement, soil ameliorant applications face the problem of Na, Cr, As leaching into the environment. However, the high-temperature reduction, smelting and alkaline leaching process is a feasible method to recover iron and alumina from iron-rich bauxite and red mud.
Aluminum dross is the main by-product of aluminum smelting and processing, and 15–25 kg of aluminum dross will be produced for every 100 kg of molten aluminum (Mahinroosta and Allahverdi, ... Therefore, in the SAD defluorination leaching process, the optimal leaching time is 20 min.
Kinetics, as a fundamental requirement of nearly all industrial activities and engineering researches, plays a great role in leaching processes. Although there are many pieces of research on its application, there is not a clear pathway for investigating the kinetics of leaching and researchers usually follow different strategies in their studies. The …
Various researchers used chemical and microbial mediated leaching procedures for the release of heavy metals from these wastes. Different (bio)hydrometallurgical approaches to processing these dusts from the metal industry for the leaching of metals were developed (Table 6.2).
Flotation and leaching processes are the most used for metal extraction in the mining industry. Froth flotation involves an intense treatment of their tails, affecting how water can be recycled in upstream …
The Leaching process is a universal process – Water will leach the components of any material it comes in contact with, from its surface or the interior of the material (based on the porous nature of the material).
In addition to extraction, the application of these reagents in the gold processing, pre-treatment and gold purification stages is explored. The main objective here is to discuss how the gold extraction process can be more sustainable, with a view to developing more greener leaching reagents.
