摘要:
The invention provides a process for recovering hydrogen cyanide from an aqueous solution by extracting the hydrogen cyanide into an organic solvent phase. The organic solvent may comprise neutral organophosphorous compounds, such as compounds selected from the group consisting of alkyl or aryl substituted phosphates, phosphonates and phosphine oxides. In alternative embodiments the organophosphorous compound is tri-butyl phosphate, di-butyl-butyl-phosphonate or tri-alkyl phosphine oxides. The organic solvent may be diluted in an organic diluent, such as an aliphatic or kerosene-type diluent. Alternative dilutions may be used, such as 75 %, 50 % or 25 %. In some embodiments, the pH of the aqueous solution containing dissolved cyanide may be adjusted to between 2 and 8, or between 3 and 7, or between 4 and 6. The organic solvent may be contacted following extraction with a basic aqueous solution to strip cyanide from the organic solvent into a basic aqueous cyanide strip solution. The stripped organic solvent may then be returned to the loading process, to extract HCN from fresh aqueous solution. The aqueous solution is typically an aqueous ore processing waste solution, in paticular a gold ore cyamide reaching waste solution.
摘要:
Un procédé pour la ré-extraction du fer trivalent et du molybdène hexavalent d'une phase organique contenant un composé organophosphorique. Dans un premier stade la phase organique est mise en contact avec une quantité d'eau telle que l'on ré-extrait la majeure partie du fer et seulement une partie mineure du molybdène. Dans un second stade la phase organique partiellement déchargée est mise en contact avec une quantité d'eau telle que l'on ré-extrait la majeure partie du molybdène y contenu. Ce procédé de ré-extraction en deux stades permet d'obtenir un rendement de ré-extraction élevé aussi bien pour le molybdène que pour le fer, tout en assurant la production d'un éluat concentré.
摘要:
A method is provided for the hydrometallurgical recovery of metal values from sources containing more than one metal of antimony, lead, copper, zinc, bismuth, tin, cadmium and other metals by leaching the metal containing source with a ferric fluoborate/fluroboric acid solution to provide a leachant metal containing solution. The leachant solution is contacted with specific organic extractants such as an organophosphoric acid ester, an alkyl salicylaldoxime and an amidobis(thiophosphoryl) compound in a series of extraction steps to separate metals based on the extractant used. The organic extractant solution is stripped of the extracted metal(s) and the metal(s) recovered. The remaining leach solution after extraction being either further treated to extract other metals or processed to provide metal values contained therein.

Un procédé pour séparer le fer trivalent d'une solution aqueuse de chlorures, comprenant la mise en contact de la solution aqueuse avec une phase organique contenant un composé organophosphorique en tant qu'agent d'extraction pour leferetau moins 40% en volume d'un alcool aliphatique à longue chaîne, la séparation de la phase organique ferrifère de la solution aqueuse, et la réextraction du fer de la phase organique ferrifère par la mise en contact de celle-ci avec de l'eau ou de l'eau acidulée de façon à obtenir une solution aqueuse de chlorure de fer. Grâce à la forte teneur en alcool de la phase organique, le fer peut être ré-extrait avec une faible quantité d'eau.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for neutralizing a sulfuric acid solution containing predominantly Zn ion. In the method of the invention at least one compound selected from chlorine-containing compounds of Na ion, K ion, Mg ion, Ca ion, and NH₄ ion in an amount at least chemically equivalent to SO₄ ion contained in the solution is added to the sulfuric acid solution. Then the sulfuric acid solution is brought into contact with an organic solvent composed of one or more species selected from oxygen-containing organic solvents and alkylamine organic solvents to extract Zn ion from the sulfuric acid solution as a chloride complex to the organic solvent. The sulfuric acid solution after extraction of Zn ion may be further treated by addition of an oxidizing agent or by an electrochemical means to convert Fe²⁺ into Fe³⁺ ion and brought into contact with a second organic solvent (B) composed of one or more species selected from oxygen-containing organic solvents and alkylamine organic solvents. In that manner Fe ion is extracted from the sulfuric acid solution as a second chloride complex to the second organic solvent (B).
