Accompanying Elements in Zinc Oxide Emitted from a Sintering Machine into the Environment in Pyrometallurgical Process of Zinc and Lead Production

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

The paper presents results of investigations of the content of selected accompanying elements in identified zinc oxide inclusions in the charge mixture and dusts emitted from a sintering machine into the environment from the pyrometallurgical production process of zinc and lead. The average content of the elements determined, i.e. Si, Al, Mn, Mg, Ca, K, Ag, As, Cd, Cu, Se, Sb, Sn, shows large variation, both in the charge mixture and furnace dust, and statistically low coefficients of correlation with zinc oxide and identified phases that form admixtures in ZnO, i.e. FeO and PbO.
