High-purity and homogeneous powders of CeB6 with nanometer size were prepared by combustion synthesis and subsequent acid- leaching. The effects of reactant ratio on the phase and morphology of the combustion product were discussed. The combustion product and leached product were analyzed by XRD, SEM and EDS. The results indicate that the combustion product consists of CeB6, MgO and Mg3B2O6. The combustion products are denser and less layered when the Mg content and KClO3 content increase. The content of CeB6 in the combustion product could be enhanced with increasing the excessive content of Mg. The purity of CeB6 is higher than 99.0% and its particles are smaller than 150nm.
Residue of alloy anode generated in three-layer liquid electrolytic purifying method is refined, the state of iron in raw materials is analysed. The state (morphology) changes of iron refined by different refining agent are investigated. Results show: 40% of boron salts or phosphate as the main component of refining agent adding 15% NaCl、20% KCl、15% CaF2、5% NaF、5% cryolite, melting the residue of alloy anode at 1100°C and 1200°C respectively, the crystal could be incubated to grow up fully, it is benefit for collecting iron. When the soaking time is 150min, iron component in alloy is 4.8%,it reaches the standard taking back into the aluminum refining process.
For the lacks of magnesium-based desulfurizer in iron and steel industry, this paper investigated thermodynamics calculation of a new desulfurizer, MgO based desulphurizer. The results indicate that the beginning reaction temperature of light-burned dolomite and Al is 1314°C, the beginning reaction temperature of light-burned dolomite and Si is 1565°C, the beginning reaction temperature of MgO and Al is 1475°C, and the beginning reaction temperature of MgO and C is 1846°C. The reaction temperature between MgO and C is too high, so the carbon-thermal reduction can’t occur easier. When the hot iron temperature is 1400°C and the addition of alumnium and iron oxide is 12.77%, the reaction between MgO and C will be induced.
The desulfurization of high-sulfur diasporic bauxite (from China) with flotation process and ethyl thio carbamate as collector was studied, and the effects of flotation time, pulp density, pH value and particle size of ores were examined. The experimental results indicate that the sulfur in bauxite was successfully decreased through flotation. The sulfur content of bauxite was lowed to 0.66% under the condition of pH value 4, the dose of flotation agent ethyl thio carbamate 0.5kg/t, frother 20g/t, flotation time 15 minutes, pulp density 10%, the particle size of ores ≦0.09 mm, and the reclamation of Al2O3is 90.16% as well. The flotation kinetics of flotation desulfurization was also studied.
In this paper a novel method for selective leaching nickel from pre-reduced laterite ore at atmospheric pressure was reported. The reduced calcine was leached in thin acid liquor to liberate the nickel and iron together firstly. By properly controlling the leaching condition, the leached iron ion could hydrolyze as goethite precipitate and regenerate the acid consumed in the leaching procedure. Finally, the nickel is selectively extracted into the leaching solution. The main factors in the leaching process, such as reduction degree of the laterite ore, acidity of the leaching solution were investigated as influence on the nickel extraction. The test results showed that selectively leaching of nickel could be achieved with an extraction degree up to 90% by reducing most of the iron in the lateritic ore to wuestite and controlling the pH value of the leaching solution below 2.5.
