The performance of solution purification directly affects the normal functioning and economical benefits of zinc hydrometallurgy. This paper summarizes the authors' recent work on the modeling, optimization, and control of solution purification process. The online measurable property of the oxidation reduction potential(ORP) and the multiple reactors, multiple running statuses characteristic of the solution purification process are extensively utilized in this research. The absence of reliable online equipment for detecting the impurity ion concentration is circumvented by introducing the oxidationreduction potential into the kinetic model. A steady-state multiple reactors gradient optimization, unsteady-state operationalpattern adjustment strategy, and a process evaluation strategy based on the oxidation-reduction potential are proposed. The effectiveness of the proposed research is demonstrated by its industrial experiment.展开更多

In order to efficiently remove silicon from the system, the reaction behaviors ofsilicate species were systematically investigated by thermodynamic analysis. The thermodynamic analysis shows that silicate in thetungstate clinker partly decomposes in the leaching process, with 150-160 mg/L silicon thermodynamically at 25 ℃. The dissolvedsilicon can be removed by magnesium salts via forming insoluble MgSiO3. The low carbonate and high ammonia concentrations inthe system are beneficial to the removal of silicon, with silicon concentration reaching 8-10 mg/L thermodynamically, whereasMgSiO3 precipitation is hardly formed when the concentration of total carbonate is more than 1.5 mol/L. The reaction behaviors ofcalcium and magnesium were also studied in the system. The results in the verification experiments consist with the theoreticalcalculation.展开更多
