Titanium-bearing electric furnace slag (TEFS) was prepared from vanadium titanomagnetite and leached with sulfuric acid. The Ti leaching rate of vanadium titanomagnetite TEFS is significantly lower than that of ilmenite TEFS. The impurity content in vanadium titanomagnetite TEFS is higher than that in ilmenite TEFS. This might be one of the main factors resulting in the low leaching rate of Ti, so the leaching behaviors of various impurities under different conditions (temperature, acid/solid weight ratio, particle size, and initial sulfuric acid concentration) were investigated. The following trends were observed under different leaching conditions: The leaching rate of Fe increased rapidly and reached equilibrium quickly, that of Si increased quickly in the early stage and then decreased in the later stage, that of Ca increased initially and reached equilibrium later, and the leaching rates of Mg and Al increased gradually until the equilibrium was reached. The leaching rate of Fe was too rapid to be able to investigate its leaching kinetics, and the insoluble leached products of Si and Ca interfered with their leaching. The effects of leaching parameters on the leaching of impurities were further analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy analysis. XRD data indicated that spinel is the major Mg- and Al-bearing mineral in TEFS. Mg and Al showed similar leaching behaviors, and their leaching conformed to a new model based on interface transfer and diffusion across the product layer, both of which affect the leaching rate.

The effects of F− concentration, leaching temperature, and time on the Ti leaching from Ti-bearing electric furnace slag (TEFS) by [NH4+]-[F−] solution leaching process was investigated to reveal the leaching mechanism and kinetics of titanium. The results indicated that the Ti leaching rate obviously increased with the increase of leaching temperature and F− concentration. The kinetic equation of Ti leaching was obtained, and the activation energy was 52.30 kJ/mol. The fitting results of kinetic equations and calculated values of activation energy both indicated that the leaching rate of TEFS was controlled by surface chemical reaction. The semi-empirical kinetics equation was consistent with the real experimental results, with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.996. The Ti leaching rate reached 92.83% after leaching at 90 °C for 20 min with F− concentration of 14 mol/L and [NH4+]/[F−] ratio of 0.4. The leaching rates of Si, Fe, V, Mn, and Cr were 94.03%, 7.24%, 5.36%, 4.54%, and 1.73%, respectively. The Ca, Mg, and Al elements were converted to (NH4)3AlF6 and CaMg2Al2F12 in the residue, which can transform into stable oxides and fluorides after pyro-hydrolyzing and calcinating.

Bagasse, a fibrous residue from sugarcane juice extraction, was used as a reducing agent to roast low-grade pyrolusite in N2. The roasted ore was further leached using sulfuric acid, to convert manganese oxide in the ore to manganese sulfate. The effects of weight ratio of bagasse to manganese ore, roasting temperature, roasting time, leaching temperature, leaching time, stirring speed and sulfuric acid concentration on the leaching recovery of manganese were investigated. Optimal conditions were determined to be a bagasse to manganese ore weight ratio of 0.8:10, roasting temperature of 500°C for 40 min, leaching stirring speed of 100 rpm, sulfuric acid concentration of 3 mol•L-1 and leaching temperature of 50°C for 40 min. The leaching recovery rate of manganese was up to 97.8% at the optimal conditions.

The recovery and leaching kinetics of lithium from lepidolite by sulfuric acid method were investigated in this study, and a new method of nanofiltration to separate Al/Li from lepidolite leaching solution was coupled. The results indicated the optimal conditions about leaching lithium from lepidolite: leaching at 433 K for 4 h with the agitation rate of 120 r min−1, sulfuric acid concentration of 60 wt%, liquid-solid mass ratio of 2.5:1, under which the Li yield could reach at 97%. The kinetics observations revealed that the leaching process was controlled by the hybrid control of solid product layer diffusion and the chemical reaction, and dominated by chemical reaction step, which improved the conclusion of single-step control in the previous literature. A successful attempt was made to couple nanofiltration separation with sulfuric acid extraction of lithium, and DK membrane was used to separate Al/Li from lepidolite leaching solution. DK membrane has shown excellent retention of Al3+ and Ca2+ and also can effectively permeate Li+, which may bring a new inspiration for lithium extraction from lepidolite in the future.

In this paper, the conventional physical separation method such as flotation, gravity separation, magnetic separation, alkaline leaching and sulfuric acid leaching were studied. The effects of grinding fineness, amount of agent, magnetic intensity, roasting temperature, roasting time, the leaching agent and leaching time on the leaching of zinc were investigated, respectively. The results show that the leaching rate of zinc is below 50% in the conventional alkaline leaching, and the leaching rate of zinc is below 85% and the leaching rate of iron is above 35% in sulfuric acid leaching. Compared with XRD pattern of the raw ore, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite is off in alkaline leaching products. In sulfuric acid leaching, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite are off in the leaching products when sulfuric acid concentration is less than 60 g/L. After 60 g/L, the different diffraction peaks of smithsonite and siderite are off in the leaching products.

In recent years, recovering zinc from zinc calcine with high iron has been a matter of discussion. In this paper, sulfuric acid leaching was carried out to assess the effect of several parameters on zinc and iron extraction in zinc calcine with high iron in which the grade of zinc and iron is 53.90% and 19.38%, respectively. Parameters, such as stirring speed, sulfuric acid concentration, liquid to solid ratio and leaching time, were investigated. The results show that leaching time has done nothing to the leaching rate, but has great influence on leaching efficiency. Liquid to solid ratio and sulfuric acid concentration have significant influence on leaching results, and stirring rate has not obvious influence on leaching results. Under the condition of 120g/L sulfuric acid, 6:1 liquid to solid ratio, 55°C leaching temperature and 120min leaching time, the recovery of zinc and iron is 82.24% and 9.64%, respectively. It is obvious that ZnO in zinc calcine is easy to dissolve in acidity solution, which shown in two aspects: high leaching rate and high leaching speed. ZnO can be dissolved entirely in sufficient sulfuric acid in 10min.

In this paper, sulfuric acid leaching was carried out to assess the effect of several parameters on metal extraction in a low grade complex gossan ore in which the grade of zinc and iron is 13% and 40.2%, respectively. Parameters, such as sulfuric acid concentration, liquid to solid ratio and leaching temperature, were studied. The results show that the zinc leaching rate is almost 80%, while the iron leaching rate is about 45% used strong acid with 200g/L. It can be seen from the results that sulfuric acid leaching could not effectively recover zinc from gossan ores studied in this paper because of iron dissolving greatly.

The dissolution kinetic of NaxH2-xTiO3(resulting from high titanium slag treatment by NaOH) by diluted sulfuric acid (38~51 wt. %) was carried out in temperature range of 10 to 50°C with an initial acid/NaxH2-xTiO3(wt.) ratio of 1:1. The effects of the sulfuric acid concentration and temperature on titanium dissolution percent were reported, and both of them significantly affected the dissolution rate. The experimental data indicate that the shrinking core model controlled by diffusion in product layer is most applicable for the titanium dissolution process, and the apparent activation energy has been estimated to be 28.69 kJ/mol.
