lead sulfide oxidation

A sulfide-oxidizing microorganism, Desulfurivibrio alkaliphilus (DA), generates a consistent enrichment of sulfur-34 (34 S) in the produced sulfate of +12.5 per mil or greater.This observation challenges the general consensus that the microbial oxidation of sulfide does not result in large 34 S enrichments and suggests that …

In the current leaching process, the majority of lead will precipitate during gold leaching as lead sulfate due to sulfide oxidation and the very low solubility of lead sulfate. Therefore, nitrate addition can also be explaining to increased gold extraction in chloride-bromide leaching. It is possible that nitrate act as excess oxidant leaching.

The oxidation of a sulfide melt will also lead to an increase in its bulk metal/S ratio (e.g., Naldrett 1969; Kaiser and Elliot 1986; Kress 1997, 2000, 2007; Fonseca et al. 2008; Moretti and Baker 2008). As shown by Ballhaus et al., the higher the bulk metal/S ratio of a sulfide melt, the lower the liquidus and solidus. Because of this, an ...

The mass balance equation for the oxidation of sulfide ions via Reactions 3 and 4 in a CSTR can be represented as: (11) [S 2-] IN-[S 2-] OUT = τ (k 1 [O 2] [Pb] [S 2-] OUT + k 2 [O 2] [Pb] [CN-]) where k 1 is the rate constant for the lead sulfide catalysed sulfide ion oxidation reaction (which is a function of the dissolved oxygen and sulfide ...
