Other articles where Acid leaching is discussed: uranium processing: Leaching: Acid leaching is commonly performed by agitating an ore-leach mixture for 4 to as long as 48 hours at ambient temperature. Except in special circumstances, sulfuric acid is the leachant used; it is supplied in amounts sufficient to obtain a final leach liquor at about…
Apr 27, 2007· However, pretreatment processes involving thermal oxidation, such as roasting, chemical oxidation, such as acid leaching, acid or alkaline pressure leaching; or biological oxidation such as bioleaching with T. Ferrooxidans liberates gold from refractory minerals. Gold is then recovered from the oxidized mass by alkaline cyanidation.
The Acid leaching process often involves two different acid solutions in two different leaches on order to extract to greatest amount of unwanted minerals. Figure 3 shows a two-step process, Hydrogen fluoride leach followed by a Nitric acid leach, attempted in various different experiments involving multiple types of coal with various ash and ...
Feb 01, 2019· Acid leaching experiments were performed in a self-aerating mechanical agitation flotation machine (Fig. 5; XFD 0.5, Jilin Prospecting Machinery Factory, China). The original fluorite concentrate with the mass concentration of 40% was kept in a 500 ml flotation cell, stirred at rate of 1700 r/min and 25 °C for 3 min, and filtered and washed ...
Heap leaching is a metal extraction process from low grade ores where crushed ore is stacked on an impermeable pad and irrigated from the top with a solution of chemical reagents. An enriched solution containing the targeted metal is collected at the bottom. This technique involves complex chemical/electrochemical reactions and transport processes. Among the main features of this method …

Leaching in concrete occurs when acid waters, usually containing atmospheric acid gases such as SO 2, NO x and CO 2, interact with concrete, causing the acid-soluble constituents in concrete to dissolve and be transported to other sites where they recrystallize or precipitate to form new compounds (Hewlett 1998, Larbi and Visser 1999). In thin ...
Application of pH 3.7 Acids to Columns of Subsoil For pH 3.7 acids differences in cation leaching rates were observed between the acid treatments. Leaching rates of Ca2+ (Fig. 4-18) were initially greater for the HNO3 treatment but decreased to a rate only nominally greater than that for the H2SO4 treatment.
The process involves leaching the material with a weak acid solution. This solution, known as pregnant liquor, is recovered and then contacted with an organic solvent, referred to as the extractant, in the solvent extraction stage (SX).
In-situ leaching of copper was done by the Chinese by 977 AD, and perhaps as early as 177 BC. Copper is usually leached using acid (sulfuric acid or hydrochloric acid), then recovered from solution by solvent extraction electrowinning (SX-EW) or by chemical precipitation.Ores most amenable to leaching include the copper carbonates malachite and azurite, the oxide tenorite, and the silicate ...
Leaching of active cathode materials of Li-ion batteries (LIB) is a hotly contested topic. In the published literature, the best processes utilize concentrated acid (e.g. 2–3 M H2SO4) and ...
The leach liquors pass through the ore to oxidise and dissolve the uranium minerals in situ. Depending on the type of leaching environment used the uranium will be complexed as either a uranyl sulphate, predominantly UO 2 (SO 4) 3 4-, in acid leach conditions or a uranyl carbonate, predominantly UO 2 (CO 3) 3 4-in a carbonate leach system. This ...
Manganese recovery from industrial ore processing waste by means of leaching with sulfuric acid was the objective of this study. Experimental conditions were optimized by multivariate experimental design approaches. In order to study the factors affecting leaching, a screening step was used involving a full

With biotite being the most reactive acid consumer in strong acids, chlorite was ranked as second in experiments involving titanite, ilmenite, epidote, hornblende, muscovite, plagioclase, K-feldspar, rutile and anatase, thus chlorite dissolution can contribute to acid consumption in heap leaching.
The leaching experiments were successful extracting more than 90% of the initial copper concentration in the one-step leaching. The best parameters were proved to be L/S 10 with a leaching time of 30 minutes. The two-step leaching, only involving the ash samples, gave a higher extraction yield allowing for a cheaper disposal method of the ash.
Herein, a novel process involving ultrasound-assisted leaching developed for recovering Ni, Li, Co, and Mn from spent lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is reported.
