摘要
Controlled sulphide precipitation was examined in this study for the recovery of copper and nickel芒芒芒cobalt concentrates from liquors originating from leaching manganese deep ocean nodules in FeSO4芒芒芒H2SO4芒芒芒H2O solutions. The metal ions studied include Co2+, Cu2+, Fe2+, Ni2+, Mn2+ and Zn2+. Promising results were obtained when copper and nickel芒芒芒cobalt concentrates were precipitated with 5.5%solution of (NH4)2S. This was added at optimised flow rate of 0.15 g S2芒芒芒/min per 1 L of processed solution at the laboratory temperature, pH=1.0 (copper precipitation) and pH=3.0 (nickel芒芒芒cobalt precipitation).
