In order to solve the problem of lead removal from crude antimony in the traditional antimony refining process NaPO 3 was introduced as a lead elimination reagent to generate phosphate slag and the slag was removed by floating on the surface of liquid antimony The reaction mechanisms were clarified by thermogravimetric differential thermal analysis and X ray diffraction analysis
The current processes for producing high purity antimony include electrolytic refining chlorination distillation reduction straight pull purification and regional smelting [10] Among these processes the electrolytic refining method can produce 4 N antimony; however electrolysis conditions are harsh and the process produces the highly toxic gases AsH 3 and

The experimental investigation and industrial practice in removing antimony arsenic and tin from the high antimony lead bullion based on the fundamental principle of basic refining of the lead bullion show that the removal efficiency of antimony arsenic and tin could drop with extension of the period of time and the direct recovery of lead is 80~90% the antimony slag ratio 10
This article describes the development of a new process in which lead bullion obtained from smelting concentrates is refined by leaching electrowinning In the last half century the challenge to treat and refine lead in order to minimize emissions of lead and lead compounds has intensified Within the primary lead industry the treatment aspect has transformed from the
The Razor Process is a unique pyrometallurgical lead refining process Benefits from the Razor process include lower energy costs; improved working environment; reduced recycling costs; increased refining productivity; reduced cycle time and labor requirements; and production of secondary recyclable products therefore yielding unique and
The sludge remaining after separation of the lead metal was treated in a two step leaching operation to solubilize the lead for recovery by electrowin ning Conditions for electrowinning were essentially the same as for electro refining except that insoluble Pb02 Ti lead dioxide coated titanium anodes were used
Crude lead bullion produced from different reduction processes typically contains copper tin arsenic antimony and silver besides other minor elements
The invention relates to a process for removing tin arsenic and antimony from molten lead by means of oxygen or oxygen containing gas mixtures which is or are blown into the molten lead by means of at least one gas nozzle 2 To avoid damage to the gas nozzle at least the oxygen outlet region 13 thereof located in the molten lead 6 is enveloped by an inert gas

Results of an investigation aimed at optimizing the fire refining process for purification and extraction of antimony into a high grade commercial metallic product are presented Various refining agents were used for refining from lead tin iron and arsenic As a result of research a method for fire refining of rough antimony was developed to obtain a high
the challenge to treat and refine lead in order to minimize emissions of lead and lead compounds has intensified Within the primary lead industry the treatment aspect has transformed from the sinter blast furnace model to direct smelting creating gains in hygiene environmental control and efficiency The refining aspect has remained
The most common contaminants are antimony cadmium arsenic silver copper and gold Single Stage Processing Thermal refining of soft and hard lead represent 90% of the world s lead refining capacity Removal of copper nickel arsenic antimony and tin from the bullion is achieved by temperature control and addition of various reagents
