In this study oxalic, citric, and glycolic acids were used in order to reduce Fe and Ti (colored impurities) from the slimes (-75 μm) feldspar samples using organic acids. The results showed that removal ratios of the colored impurities from the feldspar samples were 67.9% for Fe and 43.75% for Ti using oxalic acid and the agitated leaching (AL) method. The influence of main parameters (temperature, pulp density, leaching time, and acid concentration) were examined by using full the factorial design (24) ANOVA-Yates test technique. Next, the removal ratios of Fe% and Ti% in the tests were determined to be 80.44% and 45.39%, respectively. Additionally, the main parameters which were obtained from the best results of AL were optimized for the -500+75 μm feldspar sample. Finally, the microwave-assisted pressure leaching (MAPL) method was apply to determine the effect of pressure on leaching. The obtained results indicated that the optimum removal ratios obtained were 95.74% for Fe and 70.88% for Ti by using the MAPL tests with oxalic acid. Furthermore, the measured whiteness (L) values were observed to be over 90%. This is a suitable purification ratio for the ceramic and glass industry.

In this paper, synthetic carnallite (MgCl2 ∙ KCl ∙ 6H2O) and amorphous silica (SiO2) preparation possibilities were investigated by utilizing chromite beneficiation plant tailings which contain 3.44% chromite (Cr2O3) and 30.55% magnesium oxide (MgO) by weight. Firstly, laboratory scale high intensity wet magnetic separator was applied for removing the magnetic materials such as chromite, iron (II ) and manganese (II ) minerals in the tailings. About 85.75% of chromite, 91.22% of MnO and 64.71% of Fe2O3 were removed by single stage magnetic separation. After the magnetic separation, hydrometallurgical recovery was initiated by leaching of the tailings with hydrochloric acid (HCl). Amorphous silica particles and the other solids were separated from the leach solution by filtration. Impurities were precipitated from the leach solution by elevating the solution pH via magnesiumhydroxide (Mg(OH )2) adding. The purified magnesium chloride (MgCl2) solution was mixed with potassium hydroxide (KOH ) at stoichiometric ratio. According to the XRD and chemical analysis, the synthetic carnallite was synthesized by controlled heating of this solution at 90–100°C. Also, the amorphous silica with 96.5% SiO2 content and 84.38% recovery yield was obtained by additional magnetic separation treatment.

W artykule przedstawiono badania możliwości wytwarzania karnalitu (MgCl2 • KCl• 6H2O) i bezpostaciowej krzemionki (SiO2) z odpadów z zakładów procesu wzbogacania chromitów, które zawierają 3,44% wag. chromitu (Cr2O3) i 30,55% wag. tlenku magnezu (MgO). W skali laboratoryjnej do usuwania materiałów magnetycznych, takich jak: chromit, żelazo (II) i minerały manganowe (II) zastosowano wzbogacanie mokre w separatorach magnetycznych o wysokiej intensywności. Około 85,75% chromitu, 91,22% MnO i 64,71% Fe2O3 usunięto metodą jednoetapowej separacji magnetycznej. Po wzbogacaniu magnetycznym odzysk hydrometalurgiczny został zainicjowany przez ługowanie odpadów kwasem chlorowodorowym (HCl). Amorficzne cząstki krzemionki i inne substancje stałe oddzielono od roztworu ługującego przez filtrację. Z roztworu ługowanego wytrąciły się zanieczyszczenia przez wzrost pH dzięki zawartemu wodorotlenkowi magnezu (Mg(OH)2). Oczyszczony roztwór chlorku magnezu (MgCl2) zmieszano z wodorotlenkiem potasu (KOH ) w stosunku stechiometrycznym. Zgodnie z XRD i analizą chemiczną, syntetyczny karnalit syntetyzowano przez kontrolowane ogrzewanie tego roztworu w temperaturze 90–100°C. Również odzysk 84,38% amorficznej krzemionki o zawartości 96,5% SiO2 uzyskano przez dodatkowe magnetyczne wzbogacanie.

Physical, chemical, morphological properties and sorption characteristics of anaerobically digested dewatered municipal sewage sludge have been investigated including the surface area, pore size distribution, chemical composition, surface chemistry structure, surface physical morphology, mineralogy, cation exchange capacity, heavy metal content, total solid, total volatile solid, total Kjeldahl-N, total phosphorus content of the sewage sludge. The sorption potential of sewage sludge for the removal of 4-CP and 2,4-DCP from aqueous solutions was examined by investigating their adsorption isotherms and kinetics in a lab-scale batch study. Findings of this study clearly showed that sewage sludge provides chlorophenol removal in the landfill body as disposed with solid wastes.

Adsorption isotherms and kinetics of the removal of heavy metal ions (Ni, Pb, Zn) from aqueous solutions by natural adsorbents (zeolite, bentonite, clay) were investigated in a lab-scale batch study. The effect of various parameters such as adsorbent dosage, initial concentration of heavy metal ions, temperature, and agitation time were studied to optimise the conditions. Under those optimized conditions (180 rpm agitation rate, 120 min agitation time, pH 4.0, 298 K, 100 mg/dm3 initial adsorbate concentration), the removal percentages of heavy metal ions for natural adsorbents have been determined. The adsorption mechanisms and characteristic parameters of the process were analyzed by two and three parameter isotherm models (Langmuir, Freundlich, Temkin, Redlich-Peterson, Toth and Sips), and kinetic models (Lagergren's pseudo-first order, Ho and McKay's pseudo-second order). Adsorption thermodynamics of heavy metal ions (changes of standard enthalpy, entropy and free energy) on zeolite, bentonite and clay were also studied at 298,318 and 338 K.
