Abstract:
      Indium was leached from refractory zinc oxide flue dust (ZOFD) by microwave sulfating roasting followed by water leaching. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was applied to optimize roasting process. The optimum process parameters and two order polynomial equation models with high fitting degree were obtained by three-factor at three-level test designed by Box-Behnken Design (BBD) applying indium leaching rate as response value, and roasting temperature, ratio of acid to ZOFD, and roasting time as independent factors. The results indicate that the theoretical indium leaching rate accords with model predicts and experimental value is 92.89% and 92.78% respectively under the optimum conditions including roasting temperature of 208 ℃, ratio of acid to ZOFD of 0.5 (mL/g), roasting and duration of 93 min. This model can be used to predict indium leaching from zinc oxide dust by microwave roasting with sulfuric acid.
