Abstract
The selective extraction of chromium (Cr) from Chromium-bearing electroplating sludge (CES) has positive significance for harmless disposal and reducing dependence on native resources. Herein, the process of pressure oxidation alkaline leaching of CES is reported. The leaching ratio of Cr was reached 89.9 % under the optimal conditions, i.e., temperature of 125℃, NaOH concentration of 1.5 mol/L, liquid-solid ratio of 10, oxygen partial pressure of 2Mpa and reaction time of 2 h, while other elements such as Cu, Ni, Fe and Zn were virtually not leached out. In addition, the concentration of NaOH required for the maximum of the leaching ratio of Cr decreased with the increase of temperature, which attributed to the synergistic effect of temperature and NaOH concentration on the solubility and diffusion coefficient of the oxidant. As the oxygen partial pressure was increased to 2 MPa, the liquid-solid ratio was raised to 10, and the reaction time was extended to 2 h, respectively, the leaching ratio of Cr reached maximum and then remained as a constant. Kinetic studies showed the leaching process of chromium was controlled by chemical reaction, and the apparent activation energy was 112.1 kJ/mol. The efficient selective recovery of Cr is of great significance to reduce the difficulty of comprehensive recovery of valuable metal elements in the CES.
期刊介绍:
The Process Safety and Environmental Protection (PSEP) journal is a leading international publication that focuses on the publication of high-quality, original research papers in the field of engineering, specifically those related to the safety of industrial processes and environmental protection. The journal encourages submissions that present new developments in safety and environmental aspects, particularly those that show how research findings can be applied in process engineering design and practice.
PSEP is particularly interested in research that brings fresh perspectives to established engineering principles, identifies unsolved problems, or suggests directions for future research. The journal also values contributions that push the boundaries of traditional engineering and welcomes multidisciplinary papers.
PSEP's articles are abstracted and indexed by a range of databases and services, which helps to ensure that the journal's research is accessible and recognized in the academic and professional communities. These databases include ANTE, Chemical Abstracts, Chemical Hazards in Industry, Current Contents, Elsevier Engineering Information database, Pascal Francis, Web of Science, Scopus, Engineering Information Database EnCompass LIT (Elsevier), and INSPEC. This wide coverage facilitates the dissemination of the journal's content to a global audience interested in process safety and environmental engineering.
