5.1.3 Effects of Mass Ratio of Sodium Sulfide Added to Lead or Zinc in Leaching Solutions. The selective separation of lead from the alkaline zinc hydroxide solution was found to be always quantitatively without any loss of zinc, when sulfide was added enough to make the mass ratio of sodium sulfide added to the lead present in the solution was at 1.7–1.9 (molar …

In the Huangshaping lead–zinc concentrator, three stage circuit processes are used for crushing, and six processes have been used for grinding and flotation throughout its history as illustrated in Fig. 1, sequentially: bulk flotation process with two-stage grinding, partial (Pb-Zn) bulk flotation process with one stage grinding, bulk flotation process with one stage …

The alkaline concentration plays a very important role in the metals leaching process. To investigate the influence of NaOH concentration on the leaching rate of lead and zinc, the experiments were carried out in the leaching solutions containing different NaOH concentrations (0.5, 1, 2 and 4 M) at temperature of 70 °C, stirring speed of 500 rpm and L/S …

Figures 2, 3 and 4 show the results of digestion of the lead - zinc oxide roast in 1M, 6M and concentrated solutions of HF, HCl and H 2 SO 4 respectively at increasing leaching time from …
