Abstract:
      After natural stacking oxidation, lead anode slime was leached with potential controlled at 80 ℃ for four hours in medium of 5 mol/L sulfuric acid added with sodium chloride (c(Cl-)=3 mol/L) and oxidant of sodium chlorate with ratio of solid to liquid of 5∶1. The results show that the leaching rates of copper, bismuth, antimony and arsenic are all above 99%, the leaching rate of tellurium is above 97%, and the leaching rates of gold and silver are below 1% under the potential controlled leaching conditions including stacking duration of lead anode slime of over 4 days, oxidant dosage of >20%, and potential of 40~500 mV. Copper, bismuth, antimony, arsenic and tellurium are successfully separated from gold and silver.
