For the separation and purification of aluminium chloride hexahydrate crystals from kaolin leaching solution the effects of crystallization conditions, such as crystallization temperature, concentration of aluminium chloride concentration in the leaching solutin and gas flow rate of HCl into the leaching solution, on purity of the aluminium chloride hexahydrate crystals were investigated. The supersaturation level of aluminium chloride in the leaching solution gave great influence on the purity of the crystals. When supersaturated concentration of the aluminium chloride in the leaching solution was generated in low level, the aluminium chloride hexahydrate crystals were produced with high purity ; that is, the crystals hving a low Fe-ion concentration. The supersaturation level of aluminium chloride in the leaching solution was mainly determined by crystallization temperature, concentrations of aluminium chloride and hydrochloric acid in the solution. However, in spite of changes of the above crystallization coditions, a needle shape morphology of aluminium chloride hexahydrate crystals did not modified. To measure hydrochloric acid concentration in the kaolin leaching solution, we applied the oxalate titration method, which was suggested by shank [9] and it was prove that this method could titrate hydrochloroic acid concentration in multi-component ionic solution such as kaolin leaching solution.

Leaching tests were conducted using sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide solutions to remove impurities from domestic graphite concentrate. As a result of the leaching experiment using sulfuric acid solution and sodium hydroxide solution, respectively, the difference of removal efficiency was insignificant when the concentration of sodium hydroxide or sulfuric acid was 2 mol/L or more. The fixed carbon content increased with increasing the temperature in the sulfuric acid solution leaching, while it remains constant above 150℃ in sodium hydroxide solution. For the repeated sequential leaching tests, the leaching conditions were 2 mol/L NaOH, 200℃, 1 hour in the sodium hydroxide solution leaching and 2 mol/L H₂SO₄, 100℃, 1 hour in the sulfuric acid solution leaching, respectively. When sulfuric acid leaching followed by sodium hydroxide solution leaching was repeated 5 times, the fixed carbon increased to 99.95% and ash content decreased to 0.048%, while the fixed carbon increased to 99.98% and ash content was reduced to 0.018 when sodium hydroxide solution leaching followed by sulfuric acid solution leaching was repeated 5 times.

본 연구는 탈질용 폐 SCR 촉매로부터 유가금속인 바나듐과 텅스텐을 회수하기 위하여 고온 소다배소, 수침출, 침전 및 용매추출 실험 순으로 진행하였다. 소다배소는 $Na_2CO_3$ 첨가량 5당량, 폐촉매 평균 입자크기 $54{\mu}m$, 배소온도 $850^{\circ}C$, 배소시간 120분의 조건이 적절하였고, 소다배소 산물의 수침출 실험은 배소산물 입자크기 $-45{\mu}m$, 침출온도 $40^{\circ}C$, 침출시간 30분 및 광액밀도 10%의 조건이 적절하였다. 이와 같은 조건하에서 소다배소 및 수침출 실험을 수행한 결과, 바나듐 성분 약 46%와 텅스텐 성분 약 92%가 침출 되었다. 수침출 공정에서 얻어진 바나듐과 텅스텐이 함께 침출된 침출용액으로부터 바나듐 성분을 선택적으로 침전시키기 위하여 MgCl2를 사용하여 침전실험을 수행하였으나, 바나듐 성분이 침전될 때 텅스텐 성분이 함께 침전되어 큰 손실율을 나타내었다. 또한, 침출용액 내의 바나듐과 텅스텐 성분을 분리하기 위하여 용매추출 실험을 수행하였다. 아민계열의 추출제인 Alamine 336 및 Aliquat 336을 사용한 용매추출 실험에서 바나듐과 텅스텐 성분 모두 90% 이상 추출되었다. 이후 수행된 탈거실험에서 대부분의 역추출제에 의해 바나듐과 텅스텐은 동시에 탈거되었다. 그러나 Alamine 336을 추출제로 사용한 유기상의 탈거실험에서 NaCl 및 NH4Cl 용액을 탈거용액으로 사용하였을 경우에 바나듐과 텅스텐이 선택적으로 탈거될 수 있는 가능성을 나타내었다. 반면에 Aliquat 336을 추출제로 사용한 유기상의 탈거실험의 경우, NaOH 용액이 가장 선택적인 탈거용액임을 확인하였다.

For the separation of neodymium from NdFeB permanent magnet scrap, the scrap was roasted for oxidizing, and leached with acetic acid followed by fractional crystallization for selective separation. From the analysis results of the leached solution, the optimum condition for the recovery of neodymium was found that leaching temperature, leaching time and pulp density are 80$^{\circ}C$, 3 hours, and 35%, respectively. At this optimum condition, more than 90% of neodymium could be recovered. Concentration of neodymium acetate in acetic acid. The optimum condition for the recovery of neodymium acetate crystal from the leached solution was that the initial leaching solution was evaporated until the remaining volume was about 1/5 of the initial volume. At this condition, 67.5% of neodymium was recovered from the leached solution. The neodymium remaining in the concentrated solution was recovered by reacting it with oxalic acid.

Cement and paraffin waste form were prepared with a acid extraction method for the analysis of radionuclides generated from nuclear power plants. The acid extraction method was carried out with $HNO_3-HCl$ acid. At first, we compared the method with the microwave acid digestion method using SRM. The solutions of decomposed SRM were then analyzed by AAS and ICP-AES. The acid extraction method had shown good results as microwave acid digestion method. This method provided recovery values greater than $80\%$ for metallic elements.

Purification on the leaching solution of the crude zinc oxide obtained by the reduction of EAF dust has been carried out. Pb and Cd ions in the leaching solution were precipitated and removed from the solution by the addition of zinc metal powder. The purification condition for electrowinning to obtain the high purity zinc metal was investigated by analyzing the effects of Pb and Cd ion concentrations on the contents of impurities in the recovered zinc metal. The 3 N purity zinc metal was obtained at the electrolysis condition of the concentrations of Pb less than 2 ppm and Cd less than 0.1 ppm in the purified solution. For this purification, the amounts of zinc metal powder more than 8.5 g/l should be added in the crude zinc oxide leached solution.

Smelting reduction of spent lithium-ion batteries results in the production of metallic alloys in which reduced cobalt, nickel and copper coexist. In this study, we investigated the leaching of the metallic alloys containing the above three metals together with iron, manganese, and silicon. The mixture of hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent was employed, and the effect of the concentration thereof, the reaction time and temperature, and pulp density was investigated to accomplish the complete leaching of cobalt, nickel, and copper. The effect of the hydrogen peroxide concentration and pulp density on the leaching was prominent, compared to that of reaction time and temperature, especially in the range of 20 to 80℃. The complete leaching of the metals present in metallic alloys, except silicon, was accomplished using 2 M HCl and 5% H₂O₂ with a pulp density of 30 g/L for 150 min at 60℃.
