摘要: Abstract Alkaline leaching is a promising treatment to extract arsenic from enargite. This study investigates the feasibility of enargite concentrate in presence pyrite alkaline solution with sodium hydroxide only. Single factor and orthogonal experiments were performed determine effect concentration, temperature, time liquid-to-solid ratio on dissolution optimize conditions. The results indicate that concentration has greatest enargite, while smallest effect. Finally, over 99% was removed using optimal Characterization leach residue by XRD SEM-EDS analyses showed converted into non‑arsenic copper sulfides such as anilite (Cu7S4), geerite (Cu8S5) djurleite (Cu31S16). research applicable solving problems related pollution.
