Abstract

Electrolytic manganese residues containing a substantial amount of manganese are a potential pollution. Removing water-soluble manganese ions from electrolytic manganese residues by hydrometallurgical process was discussed. In the work, the basic property of the electrolytic manganese residues was analyzed. Based on it, we proposed the suitable method to remove Mn2+ from the slag by pollution-free oxidation in alkaline solution. The results shown that the best conditions to remove Mn2+ were pH 10.5, temperature 55 °C, the flow rate of hydrogen peroxide 0.50 mL·L-1·min-1 and agitation speed 250 r/min. At the optimum condition, the removal ratio of water-soluble Mn2+ exceeded 99.9% and the concentration of Mn2+ in the final solutions was about 3 mg/L.
