Abstract:This paper proposes selective leaching of molybdenum from Mo/Cu complex bulk concentrates in a 5 M NaCl solution using the electro-oxidation method. Here, the effects of several factors such as pH, pulp density, current density, and temperatures were investigated. A higher leaching yield of Mo increased with increasing pH from 5 to 9 and decreased with increasing pulp density from 1 to 10%. A rise in current density did not help enhance Mo, and the elevating temperature did not always result in a higher leachi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
