The objective of this paper is to assess four different organic halides as leaching agents for gold recovery from WEEE. Two of them have been previously tested (namely N-bromosuccinimide, NBS, and N-chlorosuccinimide, NCS) and have shown promising results, whereas the other two are novel and were selected due to their lower …
When 0.5 ml of bromine was added, the gold recovery increased to 68.83%. Other Lixiviants. Because of the ore contained in silver, the present halides will cause formation of partially soluble silver bromide (or chloride). Silver halide is well soluble in sodium thiosulfate, and for that reason this reagent was examined for leaching of ...
The main steps in the direct chloride leaching process are as follows: atmospheric leaching, gold recovery by solvent extraction (SX), gold reduction, and neutralization steps. ... The results suggest that the circulation of leaching chemicals is critical in developing an environmentally viable halide leaching process for gold.
Cyanide, halide, thiourea and thiosulfate have been some general leachates that were investigated to extract gold from solutions. However, these mediums of extraction are reported to make a harmful impact on the environment while having poor efficiency. ... (2003) Leaching and recovery of gold using ammoniacal thiosulfate leach liquors (a ...
Maximum gold recovery at a very minimal cost in a much safer way is the prime goal of any gold processing operation. Intensive cyanidation on gravity recoverable gold is the best for maximum recovery (cost on reagents), yet, it produces a pregnant solution which must go through electrowinning (cost), and finally through smelting (another cost).
The leaching kinetics of gold in a chloride medium is proportionally dependent on the chlorine-chloride concentrations. A pretreatment of carbonaceous or sulfidic ores is …
When it comes to practical gold recovery, this protocol, however, still suffers from several limitations, including the fact that (i) a high content of gold ([KAuBr 4] > 6 mM) in the leaching ...
Halide leaching. This treatment method includes chloride [23], [24], bromide [25], and iodide leaching [26], [27], [28]. The reaction scheme is shown below. ... Gurung et al. reported the acidothiourea-based recovery of gold, wherein PCB leach liquor was found to be rich in gold when a mixture of 0.5 ...
The physical and chemical properties of gold promote its application, such as in the high-tech, electronic products, and aerospace industries. The easily leachable ore is gradually depleted. Thus, it becomes necessary to extract gold from other resources such as refractory ore and electrical and electronic equipment. The normal method of …
Cyanidation simulation predicted 98.5% gold recovery, whereas the halide leaching indicated a final gold recovery of only 87.3%, due to gold lost in the leach residue and wash waters along with the remaining cake moisture. However, with the addition of a secondary gold recovery unit for the leach residue wash water (SCE2b), …
Recovery gold from the leaching residue by enhanced chlorination roasting. In a typical roasting procedure, a certain amount of calcium chloride, leaching residue and pyrite were thoroughly blended with a certain mass ratio. Subsequently, put 20.0 g pre-prepared samples into corundum porcelain boat and pushed to the tube furnace. ...
The invention relates to a method for recovering gold in connection with the hydrometallurgical production of copper from a waste or intermediate product containing sulphur and iron that is generated in the leaching of the copper raw material. The recovery of both copper and gold occurs in a chloride environment. The gold contained in the …
Acid/halide leaching of gold from electronic waste Prior to chemical leaching of metals from electronic waste, the raw waste materials were subjected to mechanical crushing to reduce the
Fine gold particles can be recovered in other concentration devices such as flotation and/or leaching. SAG mill circuit. Gold Recovery. Gold recovery comprises similar stages to the processing of most ores. First, the valuable minerals are separated from the gangue through concentration. The final concentrate is obtained by repeated …
gold and (ii) gold leaching in acidified water-miscible organic solvents. Gold recovery from gold ore by the simultaneous technique proved to be fast, efficient, and selective. In this method, the gold ore was contacted with a biphasic solution including an acidified aqueous phase and a water-
In the second stage, the separated residue is used for the recovery of gold by sulphuric acid with a combination of halide salt. Results have shown that almost 92% of gold is recovered at the optimized parameters. Solvent extraction with 0.1M tertiary amide reveled the selective and quantitative recovery of gold from gold leach solution.
The main steps in the direct chloride leaching process are as follows: atmospheric leaching, gold recovery by solvent extraction (SX), gold reduction, and …
Cyanide is a lixiviant, or reagent that is used to leach, often in tanks, gold from a solid matrix and form a gold cyanide complex. The gold cyanide complex is then extracted from the pulp or slurry by adsorption onto activated carbon. CIL stands for carbon-in-leach. This is a gold extraction process called cyanidation where ... Gold …
leaching rate. It can be seen from Figure 1 that the gold/silver leach rate increases as a function of time, eventually reaching a steady state value after 350s. At steady state, the leaching rate for gold/silver is calculated to be 2.3x10-5mol/m2s. The mixed potential of the gold/silver electrode is also shown in Figure
Wu et al. fabricated a polyaniline polymer and applied it to gold adsorption from a halide leaching solution of e-waste ... Quinet et al. proceeded with the leaching …
The most stable gold complexes are produced by the halide lixiviant systems using the nontoxic I − and I 3 − ... The recovery of gold during leaching of the flotation concentrate at the ...
Halide gold leaching. The use of halide (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine and astatine) systems for gold dissolution pre-dates cyanidation (La-Brooy et al., 1994). With the exceptions of fluorine and astatine, all halogens have been tested and used for gold extraction (Moir, 1906). Earlier to the inception of cyanide, chlorine was ...
