The reactions of hematite in aqueous hydrochloric acid, perchloric acid, and sulfuric acid solutions with or without the addition of common or uncommon salts were studied using monosized particulates in a well-stirred reactor and dilute solid concentration to obtain fundamental details of the reaction kinetics. The experimental rate data suggest that the entire leaching reaction is controlled by a chemical process. The leaching rate of hematite was seen to be first order with respect to hydrogen ion activity, a(H), in hydrochloric acid or perchloric acid solutions, with or without the addition of common salts, while the rate was of a half order in sulfuric acid solutions with or without the addition of sodium sulfate. A theoretical analysis showed that the anions next to the surface in the double layer were chloride ion and perchlorate ion in hydrochloric acid and perchloric acid solutions, respectively, and sulfate ion in sulfuric acid solutions, with or without the addition of sodium sulfate. The fact that the leaching rates of hematite were quite different in various acids having identical α(H values indicates the importance of anion adsorption. The dependency of the leaching rate upon α(H) appeared to be controlled by adsorbed anions next to the surface in the double layer. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
