In this study, the effect of two main parameters, time and temperature, were investigated in the roasting process of zinc sulfide of Bafgh’s mine, and kinetics and the mechanism of the roasting reaction were examined, too. The oxidation process was performed in a muffle furnace in the presence of the oxygen of air atmosphere. The raw powder material (with the particle size of 74-250 micron) was poured in Alumina crucibles. The roasting process was run in eight temperatures of 650, 700, 750, 800, 850, 900, 950 and 1000 ◦C. Oxidation percent was calculated in six times of 5, 10, 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes. The experiments were designed in a way that the effect of each parameter could be... 

In this study effect of air flow rate, particle size and oxygen excess on roasting of copper concentrate in a fluidized bed reactor were investigated. Copper concentrate in this work was from sarcheshme copper mine. For determination of the weight percentage of remaining sulfur, calcins were analyzed by XRD. The effect of air flow rate was studied at 211,250 and 312 lit/min. The results indicate that an increase in air flow rate led to a decrease in amount of sulfur in the calcin. For study the effect of oxygen excess roasting were done with 20,21 and 23 volume percent of oxygen and the results were the same as the effect of air flow rate. For study the effect of particle size, roasting were... 

In this study, four parameters were investigated including temperature, inlet flow rate, gas composition (oxygen) and particle size on the roasting of Bama company zinc sulfide concentrate in Fluidized bed reactor. Initially, primary sample was heated in electric furnace at 125℃ for 24 hours until the moisture content dried. Then roasting operation was done at 700 and 900℃. The operation was carried out on three range of particle size including 300-500, 500-700 and 700-1000 microns and flow rate was greater than the minimum flow rate of Fluencing. To investigate the effect of flow rate and gas composition input, 500-700 micron particle size range was selected. The effect of 155, 172 and 188... 

The foregoing note is a Ph.D. Thesis in Material Science and Engineering entitled "Leaching of hydrometallurgical treatment residue of zinc concentrate and Indium solvent extraction of solution". This research includes three stages of Roasting, Leaching, and solvent extraction. The scientific fundamentals and research background in all three domains have been studied. Investigations on the Roasting of zinc sulfide concentrate showed that in order to prevent the ingestion of indium into the zinc ferrit structure, the alkaline roasting process with 15% calcium oxide at 850 0C and 150 min prevented the ingression of 80% of the indium into the ferritic structure. The results of studies on the...
