A review of the refinery mass balance shows the refinery currently precipitates almost of the gallium, germanium, iron, lead, and other contaminate metals between a pH of 2.5 and 4.5. Purification consisted of precipitating gallium from the ion exchange strip solutions at pH 4.1 using sodium hydroxide.

Valences of the Elements Chemistry Table. You may assume that the valences of the elements—the number of electrons with which an atom will bond or form—are those that can be derived by looking at the groups (columns) of the periodic table. While these are the most common valences, the real behavior of electrons is less simple.
The gallium and germanium in the zinc refinery residue mainly exist as dissociative or combined oxides that correlate with iron and silica. (2) The leaching of both gallium and germanium increase with increasing sulfuric acid concentration up to 156 g L − 1 with ratios of 90.83% and 65.06%, respectively. Further increases in the sulfuric acid ...

Uses. Germanium is a semiconductor. The pure element was commonly doped with arsenic, gallium or other elements and used as a transistor in thousands of electronic applications. Today, however, other semiconductors have replaced it. Germanium oxide has a high index of refraction and dispersion.
China's exports of wrought germanium totaled 36.49 tons in the first nine months of 2023, up 47.4% on the year, while shipments of wrought gallium fell 61.9% on the year to 22.72 tons over the ...
Substantial germanium resources are available in other metal ores deposits in Alaska, Tennessee, and Washington. The owner of a zinc smelter in Clarksville, TN, planned to construct a new $90 million gallium and germanium processing plant at the site, the plant could recover an estimated 40 tons of germanium per year.

Introduction. Some metals and metalloids such as strontium (Sr), silver (Ag), tin (Sn), iron (Fe), tellurium (Te), gallium (Ga), germanium (Ge), barium (Ba) and vanadium (V) are naturally present in the environment, but their major sources are linked to pollution from industrial and human activities.
