The safe disposal of hazardous waste from zinc hydrometallurgy, such as jarosite residue, is crucial for the sustainable development of the industry. The chemical, structural and morphological properties of jarosite residue from zinc smelting were studied by a combination of various characterizations, and environmental stability was evaluated using the toxicity characteristic leaching procedure (TCLP), Chinese standard leaching tests (CSLT) and long-term leaching experiments (LTLE). Phase composition analysis revealed that zinc ferrite and sodium jarosite were the main phases present in the jarosite residue. TCLP and CSLT analyses indicated that the Zn and Pb contents exceeded their respective toxicity identification standards by more than 30 times and 8 times, respectively, exceeding the threshold values of the standard. The LTLE results demonstrated that Pb concentrations continued to exceed the standard limits, even after long contact times. This study has paramount significance in the prediction of jarosite residue stability and the evaluation of its potential for secondary environmental pollution. |
