Solubilities and Physical Properties of Saturated Solutions in the Copper Sulfate + Sulfuric Acid + Seawater System at Different Temperatures

Abstract: -In Chile, the most important economic activity is mining, concentrated in the north of the country. This is a desert region with limited water resources; therefore, the mining sector requires research and identification of alternative sources of water. One alternative is seawater, which can be a substitute of the limited fresh water resources in the region. This work determines the influence of seawater on the solid−liquid equilibrium for acid solutions of copper sulfate at different temperatures (293.15 to 3… Show more

“…The same authors' speeches are based on the acidity which tends to dissolve copper and decrease the strength of ion binding to colloids. Furthermore, according to Boone et al (2012), the copper source used (Cu2SO4•5H2O) in this present study is highly soluble, especially in an acidic medium (Justel et al, 2015).…”

“…It has been shown that pH is a factor that can influence the properties of copper sulfate. 31 In very acidic media containing sulfuric acid, the concentration of sulfate ion decreases, reducing its effectiveness. In this study, copper sulfate solutions at pH of 7.5 and 7.9 were used, so the effect would not be altered.…”

“…Copper sulfate pentahydrate (CuSO 4 •5H 2 O) is a blue crystalline Cu salt commonly used as a pesticide, fungicide, soil additive, and feed supplement [103]. Copper sulfate is soluble in water with decreased solubility upon subjection to increased acid conditions [104]. Copper sulfate is the most common form of supplemental Cu in animal feeding due to its availability, and its relatively low cost compared with other sources of Cu [105].…”
