Impact of Metal Ions on Human Health. Arsenic is a toxic element that is harmful to humans and a major pollutant in drinking water. The World Health Organization (WHO) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) set the guideline value for the maximum level of arsenic contamination in drinking water as 10 μg/L [].Chemically, there …
In order for the high-arsenic regions of the Northparkes copper–gold orebody to be beneficiated economically, tennantite ((Cu,Fe) 12 As 4 S 13) present in the ore needs to be rejected to enable copper concentrates to meet the typical smelter penalty level of 2000 ppm As. Using a composite sample of high-arsenic drill cores from …
From this point of view, two ion-exchange (IEX) technologies were used to separate and concentrate its main elements (Cu, Zn and As): (i) selectrodialysis (SED) followed by (ii) IEX resins. Figure 1 shows the flow chart of integrated processes (SED and IEX resins) for copper and zinc recovery and arsenic removal from acidic metallurgical …

During the copper arsenic pilot plant campaign (hereafter referred to as the Cu-As Campaign) four separate concentrates were processed. Each of these concentrates contained levels of arsenic in excess of the Chinese smelter import limit of 0.5% [8]. The major elemental compositions for the concentrates

The separation efficiencies of copper and arsenic were higher than 99% by the replacement reaction between arsenic and copper ions when solid-to-liquid ratio was more than 10% at 20 °C within 10 min. CuS was the main phases in precipitate in which copper content was 63.38% in mass fraction.
Arsenic is a penalty element for smelters and at levels exceeding 0.3% the smelters may reject the concentrate. Arsenic is a problem environmentally for copper smelters and penalties apply when it is high. This paper describes the options for penalty element removal and suitability to incorporate into the modified flowsheet.
This study proposed a new pretreatment of oxygen-enriched roasting and acid leaching to simultaneously separate the arsenic and copper from scrap copper anode slime containing high arsenic and tin. ... and 50% oxygen concentration). Then, copper, arsenic, and nickel were leached simultaneously and the leaching efficiencies …
1. Introduction. Copper smelting flue dusts (CSFUs) are always produced from the electro-refining processing of copper ores and contain various valuable metals like copper, zinc, lead, tin, antimony, and so on (Chen et al., 2012, Vircikova and Havlik, 1999, Li et al., 2011).Especially, the average copper content in CSFUs could come to more …
Separation of arsenic and valuable metals (Pb, Zn, Cu, Bi, Sn, In, Ag, Sb, etc.) is a core problem for effective utilization of high arsenic-containing copper smelting ashes (HACSA). This study developed an effective separation process of arsenic, lead, and zinc from HACSA via alkali leaching followed by sulfide precipitation.
Cu–As alloy is viewed as one kind of secondary copper resources. It is difficult to simultaneously recover copper and remove arsenic using conventional processes. To separate arsenic and tin from Cu–As alloy (mainly Cu 3 As), an innovative methodology that uses vacuum distillation in the presence of pyrite to form new phase is …
The separation efficiencies of copper and arsenic were higher than 99% by the replacement reaction between arsenic and copper ions when solid-to-liquid ratio was more than 10% at 20 °C within 10 ...
A novel pyrometallurgical concept was developed to selectively separate arsenic from high-arsenic copper smelter flue dusts containing high concentrations of copper sulfates, using pyrite as an additive. The optimized process conditions in this work consisted of roasting for 30 min at 550 °C under an inert atmosphere. During the roasting …
The separation of Cu, Pb, Zn, and As from copper smelting dust through oxidative alkali leaching and sulfide precipitation, as well as the subsequent recovery …
It was difficult to achieve the effective separation of arsenic and tin by these methods. Therefore, an effective and clean pretreatment method for selectively separating arsenic from scrap copper anode slime containing high arsenic and tin via oxygen-enriched roasting followed by acid leaching was proposed. The volatilization rate of …

Show details ... lentils, mung beans, and split peas has been shown to be very low (0.84 to 1.91 percent) and similar to each other (Lynch et al., 1984). Because phytate and iron are ...
Through the main chemical reaction of metal ions and S 2−, a new type of sulfide precipitant was first prepared and used to realize the selective separation recovery of copper and arsenic from the leaching …
Abstract Thin dust from copper smelting production is a valuable raw material for the extraction of heavy nonferrous, noble, and rare metals. One feature of dusts is the high content of arsenic in them, which must be removed from the technological cycle in the form of a product suitable for safe storage. The combined technology for processing dust …
ED would separate the positively charged copper from the neutral or negatively charged arsenic, even if the concentration of arsenic is much higher than copper. EC would precipitate arsenic in the same cell in the anodic compartment using the same electric current as for the ED part to produce a much lesser volume of sludge with …
Multi-metal extraction of flue dust from copper smelting is being pursued to meet the increasingly appealing environmental requirements of our modern life. In this paper, the thermodynamic analysis of acid leaching solution was carried out. Ferric arsenate deposits were found in the range of pH = 0–11.63, in the form of FeAsO4 and …
Most commercial arsenic is recovered as a by-product of the smelting of copper, lead, cobalt, and gold ores. Only one stable isotope of arsenic, that of mass 75, occurs in nature. Among the artificial radioactive isotopes is one of mass 76, which has a half-life of 26.4 hours. Arsenic-72, -74, and -76 have been used in medical diagnostic ...
