| Popis: | This study focuses on improving crystalline characteristics of metal-contaminated sludge. The mineralization behavior of Cu/Al or Cu/Fe coexisting in solution is surveyed, and the characteristics of residue and suspension settling are discussed in the context of water content of residue and settling/specific filtration resistance of suspensions. Experimental data show that the hydrate of Cu4SO4(OH)6 forms during mineralization of copper sulfate solution when hydroxide ion concentration, reaction time, and temperature are not controlled appropriately. Mineral characteristics of the residue are usually poor when the Cu4SO4(OH)6 forms in Cu/Al or Cu/Fe solution. However, Cu4SO4(OH)6 can be further transformed into CuO with wet oxidation or ferrite method, respectively (i.e., mineralization treatment). Water reduction of the residue is from 96.8% to 72.8% in the Cu/Al case or 95.6% to 66.6% in the Cu/Fe case, and the mineralized residue volume is only 1/10 of the hydrate sediment. This is particularly beneficial for sludge disposal. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 2010 |
