Zinc and Lead Metallurgical Slags as a Potential Source of Metal Recovery: A Review

Katarzyna Nowińska,
Zdzisław Adamczyk

Abstract: This article presents the mineralogical and chemical characteristics of zinc and lead smelting slags, with particular reference to the slags formed during the simultaneous production of Zn and Pb by the Imperial Smelting Process. These slags, because of the presence of many metals in their composition, mainly in the form of crystalline phases, are a valuable source for their extraction. Slags from Zn-Pb metallurgy are processed on an industrial scale using pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical methods, alon… Show more

“…This suggests from another perspective that ZnO(s,l) will react with other components and that Zn(s,l,g) may come from slag-phase reaction. Similar reaction models can be found in blast furnaces, converters, and electric furnaces [21][22][23][24]. Among them, the Fe-ZnO-FeO system can be considered, and Fe or FeO are the reducing agents.…”

“…Currently, not only in Kazakhstan but also in the world, zinc and lead are the most important metals that form modern industry, the metallurgical industry and the circular economy (circular economy) of different countries of the world (Circular Economy (CE)) [1]. The main amount of lead (over 65%) is used for the production of batteries, a significant part of which is used for the manufacture of electrical cable sheaths.…”
