Abstract

A craft of concentrated acid-heating reinforced leaching process is investigated for the treatment of a high arsenic pyrite cinder, a common by-product in vitriol industry. The pyrite cinder, containing 57.37% Fe, and 2.78% As, was conducted for the acid leaching process. The results demonstrated that iron concentrate with 60.57% Fe, 0.28% As and 96.23% of iron recovery was obtained under the optimal acid leaching conditions(Sulphuric acid concentration is a mass ratio of 20%, a leaching temperature of 60°C, a liquid-solid ratio of 2:1 and a leaching time of 120 min).This craft can be used to utilize pyrite cinder and produce qualified concentrate as iron-bearing feed for steel industry, which will help to solve the pollution of sulfuric acid residue and extend raw material sourcing for Chinese steel industry.
