Processing of waste (tails) after flotation of copper production slag to obtain iron oxide pigment
Annotatsiya
At this work, the processing of waste after flotation of copper production slag to obtain iron oxide pigment is presented. Based on the results of the experiments, the influence of various factors and parameters on the processing of iron-containing waste (tailings) of the copper concentration plant-2 of the AMMC was studied; This approach is both uncomplicated and efficient for extracting Fe 2 O 3 , which is regarded as a primary ingredient in the manufacturing of iron pigment. It was found that when caustic soda is used for alkaline roasting, the iron oxides in the tailings react with nitrates and hydrates to form an insoluble solid phase. Additionally, it was discovered that firing temperatures above 350 °C result in the formation of a sodium aluminate compound. This compound and the iron compounds dissolve in solutions and negatively affect the quality of the resulting Fe 2 O 3 pigment.
