Dissolution of Iron Oxides by Oxalic Acid DISSOLUTION OF IRON OXIDES BY OXALIC ACID A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by SUNG OH LEE M.Sc (Resources Recycling Engineering) B.Sc (Mineral and Resources Engineering) Chonnam National University, KOREA School of Chemical Engineering and Industrial chemistry Faculty of Engineering Sydney, Australia September, 2005 LEE SUNG OH Ph.D Chemical Engineering & Industrial Chemistry Engineering DISSOLUTION OF IRON OXIDES BY OXALIC ACID The iron content of industrial minerals can be reduced by physical and chemical processing. Chemical processing is very efficient to achieve a high degree of iron removal at minimum operating cost. Both inorganic acids and organic acids have been used for clay refining. However, due to environmental 2- - pollution and contamination of products with the SO4 and Cl , inorganic acids should be avoided as much as possible. This research investigated the use of oxalic acid to dissolve iron oxides and the dissolution characteristics of natural iron oxides. The dissolution of iron oxides in oxalic acid was found to be very slow at temperatures ranging from 25℃ to 60℃, but increased rapidly at a temperature above 90oC with increasing oxalic acid concentration, whereas the pH caused the reaction rate to decrease at pH>2.5 and improved the rate from pH 1 to pH 2.5. The iron oxides such as goethite (α-FeOOH), lepidocrocite (γ-FeOOH) and iron hydroxide (Fe(OH)3) can be dissolved faster at the presence of magnetite which exhibits an induction period at the initial stage and showed the bell-shaped curves for the dissolution. In titration tests, however, the increase of temperature causes an increase in solubility of the oxalate complexes, resulting in an increased stability of ionized species in solution. During the addition of NaOH, NaHC2O4⋅H2O was precipitated without forming Na2C2O4⋅H2O, but it was re-dissolved at pH>4.0. On the other hand with NH4OH, NH4HC2O4⋅H2O and (NH4) 2C2O4⋅H2O co-precipitated at pH 0.93, but also re-dissolved at over pH 2.03. The reaction temperature was found not to affect the removal of iron from the ferric oxalate complex solution using lime. Iron is removed as iron hydroxide and calcium oxalate is then precipitated during the iron removal step. The formation of Fe(OH)3 in the solution was affected by the dissociation of Ca(OH)2. The thermodynamics of sodium, ammonium and iron oxalate complexes were investigated and the standard free energy, ∆Go was calculated using thermodynamic data and solubility products. The dissolution of pure hematite by oxalate was found to follow a shrinking core model of which the kinetic step of the reaction is the controlled mechanism. b Sticker c ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I am deeply grateful to my supervisor, Associate Professor Tam Tran, for his guidance, advice, support and invaluable help over the duration of my research.

This article is published with open access and licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License. Abstract To overcome the limitations of currently available protectives and consolidants for carbonate stones (such as marble and limestone), in 2011 the use of calcium phosphate was proposed. The idea is forming calcium phosphates (ideally hydroxyapatite) as the reaction product between the substrate and an aqueous solution of a phosphate salt that the stone is treated with. In this paper, the studies aimed at identifying the best treatment conditions (in terms of nature and concentration of the phosphate precursor, solution pH, reaction time, ionic and organic additions) are first briefly summarized. Then, the efficacy of the phosphate treatment in protecting marble from dissolution in rain and restoring cohesion of weathered marble and limestone is discussed. Some recent studies on the use of the phosphate treatment on alternative substrates and some future steps for research on the topic are finally outlined. Keywords: Cultural heritage; Marble; Hydroxyapatite; Protection; Consolidation 1 Introduction improve mechanical properties, by providing a binding action between the stone grains. Organic products are A great part of cultural heritage objects (e.g. monuments, effective in improving mechanical properties, but again architectural decorations and statues) is made of carbonate they lack compatibility and durability.

The idea is treating gy sum with an aqueous solution of diammonium hydrogen hos hate (DAP, (.H 4)2HPO 4) to form hydroxya atite (HAP, Ca 10 (PO 4)6(OH) 2), which has much lower solubility than gy sum. Tests carried out on gy sum aste sam les, manufactured to resemble historic stuccoes, showed that, after treatment with the DAP solution, a significant im rovement in mechanical ro erties was achieved and brushite (CaHPO 4ì2H 2O) was formed (alongside some other by- roducts, that can be removed by an additional oultice treatment). Even if brushite is more soluble than HAP, still its formation is ex ected to be beneficial for stuccoes conservation, as brushite is significantly less soluble than gy sum. Introduction Since antiquity, gy sum-based stuccoes have been frequently used to imitate recious white or colored marbles, when the use of real marbles was not ossible, because trans ort from faraway quarries was too costly a1,2b.

  • Dictionary of Explosives
    DICTIONARY OF EXPLOSIVES BY ARTHUR MARSHALL A .C .G j., F.I.C., F.C.S. CHEMICAL INSPECTOR INDIAN ORDNANCE DEPARTMENT PHILADELPHIA P. BLAKISTON’S SON & CO. 1012 WALNUT STREET 1920 Printed in Great Britain INTRODUCTION It is a generation since a dictionary of explosives has been published, and, in the meantime, many new explosives have been introduced. It is hoped, therefore, that this small volume, giving concise information about these special materials, may prove useful to those who have to deal with them. In Cundill and Thomson’s “ Dictionary of Explosives,” issued in 1895, there arc many entries of the names of inventors and of mixtures which had been proposed but have never been used commercially, nor are likely to be. As modem explosives were then in their infancy, it was no doubt wise to insert all the available information whether it appeared to be important or not; but now it seems to me better to restrict the scope of the dictionary so as to keep its size within moderate limits. Practically only explosives with special or proprietary names are therefore dealt with here. For information concerning chemical substances, such as the nitro-toluenes and other nitro-compounds, reference should be made to the text-books on explosives and chemistry. A few words may, however, be said here about the nitro- celluloses. These are made by treating cellulose with a mix­ ture of nitric and sulphuric acids, and then purifying the product by washing it thoroughly with hot water. The variety of cellulose most used for this purpose is cotton, and the product obtained from it is frequently called nitrocotton, three special varieties of which are collodion cotton, pyro- collodion and guncotton (q.
