Abstract

The chemistry of the dissolution of Palladium in pressure-cyanide has not received considerable attention. At room temperature and pressures, the reaction between sodium cyanide and Palladium does not occur because of poor kinetics. However, at elevated temperatures between 100-160 °C, Palladium can be leached by sodium cyanide like the reaction of gold. A research study has been undertaken to develop the fundamentals of a method for the direct dissolution of Palladium In this work, the dissolution of Palladium powder and place were measured in pressure clear cyanide solution. The cyanide leaching reaction mechanism is also discussed. The data of Palladium powder and place at different cyanide concentrations, different temperature and different oxygen pressure are obtained. The dissolution rate of metal Palladium powder and place were found to be relate to the cyanide and oxygen level.
