  • 156 Zinc Oxide and Hydroxide
    156 Zinc Oxide and Hydroxide COHPONENTS: EVALUATOR: (1) Zinc oxide; ZnO; [13l4-l3-Z] T. P. Dirkse Department of Chemistry (Z) Zinc hydroxide; Zn(OH)Z; [Z04Z7-58-l] Calvin College Grand Rapids, Michigan 49506, U.S.A. (3) Water; HZO; [773Z-l8-5] June 1984 CRITICAL EVALUATION: ~o far as the stable oxides and hydroxides are concerned, zinc exists only in the dipositive form. ZnO is a stable material but there are also indications that metastable forms of ZnO exist, depending on the method of preparation. The rate of solubility, and to some extent the solubility itself, of ZnO in an alkali solution was found to be dependent on the previous history of the ZnO (1). There is also mention of seven solid phases of ZnO (Z). A rather extensive review of the literature showed that the values of many physical characteristics of ZnO depend on the method of preparation or the previous history of the material (3), and, consequently, there is much discrepancy in the values reported in the literature. The so-called "active zinc oxides" had lower densities and higher catalytic activities than the "stable zinc oxides," yet all had the same X-ray diffraction pattern. A study of the effect of particle size on the solubility showed that the solubility product of ZnO as determined by solubility measurements in 1 mol NaOH dm-3 did increase as the particle size decreased and as the surface area of the ZnO increased (4). Zinc hydroxide, on the other hand, is a substance whose purity and stability have often been called into question.

  • Hydrometallurgical Base Metals Extraction from Steelworks Flue Dust
    XXV Encontro Nacional de Tratamento de Minérios e Metalurgia Extrativa & VIII Meeting of the Southern Hemisphere on Mineral Technology, Goiânia - GO, 20 a 24 de Outubro 2013 HYDROMETALLURGICAL BASE METALS EXTRACTION FROM STEELWORKS FLUE DUST OLIVEIRA, D.M.1, SOBRAL, L.2, SOUZA, C.E.G.3 1CETEM – Centre for Mineral Technology/Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, [email protected] 2CETEM – Centre for Mineral Technology/Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, [email protected] 3CETEM – Centre for Mineral Technology/Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. ABSTRACT The production of steel in electric arc furnace (EAF) generates a by-product called EAF dusts. These steelmaking flue dusts are classified in most industrialized countries as hazardous residues because the heavy metals contained in them, tend to leach under slightly acidic rainfall conditions. However, and at the same time they contain zinc species which can be use as a source to obtain valuable by-products. The present investigation shows results on the processing of a steelwork flue dust using oxidative leaching processes that release in the bulk chlorine gas in charge of dissolving the base metals, copper and zinc in particular. The leachate-bearing copper and zinc ionic species, and other metal species, such as iron, out of the aforementioned oxidative processes, is treated for producing quite important chemicals, such as copper chloride, starting point for producing copper oxi-chloride CuCl2.3Cu(OH)2, a very used fungicide in agriculture, zinc sulphate (ZnSO4), from where zinc oxide can be produced, and goethite (FeOOH) quite used in the ceramic, paint, cosmetic and pharmaceutical industrial sectors. KEYWORDS: electric arc furnace; base metals; steelworks flue dust.
