    Recovery of Manganese From Spent Batteries Using Activated Carbon Powder as Reductant in Sulfuric Acid Solution
    (Asian Journal of Chemistry, 2013) Kursunoglu, Sait; Kaya, Muammer
    Recovery of manganese from spent batteries was investigated using activated carbon powder as a reducing agent in sulfuric acid solution. The effects of four different leaching parameters (sulfuric acid concentration, amount of activated carbon powder, temperature and time) on the leaching of manganese from spent batteries were investigated using central composite design technique. The maximum manganese recovery conditions were determined as 1 M of sulfuric acid concentration, 3 g of activated carbon powder, 80 degrees C of temperature and 3 h of leaching time. Under these conditions, the recovery of manganese was 86.39 % and pH value of the solution was 0.77. According to the reductive acid leaching results, an empirical second order equation for manganese recovery based on four investigated parameters was calculated. The observed values of manganese recoveries using model equation were found to be in a good agreement with the predicted values (R-2 = 0.92).

    Hydrometallurgical Processing of Nickel Laterites- A Brief Overview on the Use of Solvent Extraction and Nickel/Cobalt Project for the Separation and Purification of Nickel and Cobalt;
    (Chamber of Mining Engineers of Turkey, 2019-06-01) Kursunoglu, Sait; Kaya, Muammer
    In this study, a brief overview of the solvent extraction (SX) application for the separation and purification of nickel and cobalt in hydrometallurgical processing of laterite nickel ores is presented. This paper consists of two parts: firstly, the SX of nickel and cobalt from sulphate leach solutions is described; and secondly, the development of hydrometallurgical plants for the processing of laterite nickel ores that involve solvent extraction technique is discussed. The most important extractants are shortly given in the first part of the study. It is seen that the extraction and separation of nickel and cobalt from the impure leach solution of laterite nickel ores can be performed by either using a single extractant system that is called as a direct solvent extraction (DSX) or a mixture of two or more extractant which is known as a synergistic solvent extraction system (SSX). Mixed sulphide precipitation (MSP) and mixed hydroxide precipitation (MHP) processes are mentioned. This paper is also addressed advantage and disadvantages of each extraction system. It is shown that capital investment expenditure, operational investment expenditure and mineralogical content are the most important factors that can affect the selection of the appropriate hydrometallurgical process for lateritic nickel ore. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Extraction of Lanthanum and Cerıum from a Bastnasite Ore By Direct Acidic Leaching
    (Chamber of Mining Engineers of Turkey, 2020-06-01) Kursunoglu, Sait; Top, S.; Hussaini, Shokrullah; Gokcen, H. S.; Altiner, Mahmut; Ozsarac, Safak; Kaya, Muammer
    The extraction of lanthanum (La) and cerium (Ce) from a bastnasite ore by direct acidic leaching was investigated. The effects of acid concentration and leaching temperature on the extraction of La and Ce from the ore were tested. Using nitric (NHO3), more than 85% of the La and Ce were simultaneously extracted into leach solution whereas the La and Ce dissolutions were determined as less than 85% by using sulfuric acid (H2SO4). The La dissolution exceeded 90% by using hydrochloric acid (HCl); however, the Ce dissolution remained below 85% under the following conditions: solid-to-liquid ratio of 20% (w/v), the acid concentration of 20%, leaching temperature of 25°C and leaching time of 1 h. The result revealed that HNO3 could be used as a solvent for the maximum simultaneous extraction of the La and Ce from the bastnasite ore. The leaching temperature had no crucial effect on the dissolution of La and Ce when HNO3 or HCl solutions were preferred as a solvating agent. However, the leaching temperature had a slight positive effect on the dissolutions of La and Ce when H2SO4 was used as a solvent. © 2023 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
